Offsetting trades in FX (counter-trend trading) cannot earn money unless you align the timing with the market; trend-following trading is designed to become more profitable as the market moves in its trend.
FX traders love contrarian strategies
In fact, even among many sea traders, contrarian trading is common
Skilled traders do not necessarily make profits with trend-following
What makes a trader grow is continuing with trend-following
There are people who can earn well even while using contrarian strategies
However, in contrarian trading you must keep trading, cutting losses, and taking profits while matching market timing
to do so
this means even beginners and intermediate traders can end up losing
People who control the market well are good at contrarian trading and can really grow their assets, but
in reality, most traders are better at trend-following
The reason is
contrarian trading involves waiting for market timing
while trend-following profits as the market advances
In practice, it is easier to amplify profits with trend-following
Just stop the habit of locking in profits too early
In trend-following trades, stop-losses are easier to implement as part of the trading style
And when a trending market comes, the stopped-loss portion tends to generate more profits
In reality, the FX market
keeps a contrarian market to tilt the market
and the genuine trend market is born afterward
Therefore, engaging in trend-following is a fundamental trading strategy in the FX market and for capital growth
