For the longest time I thought trading was all about spotting tops and bottoms, but that only drained my account and my patience. Once I shifted to following the obvious direction of the market, things started to feel less random. What really helped me was combining simple moving averages with price action to confirm when a trend is worth joining. I don’t overload my charts anymore, just a couple of indicators to give structure. I remember reading through https://forextester.com/blog/trend-trading/ and it helped me connect the dots between trend indicators like MACD, moving averages, and actual trade management. The biggest takeaway was that you don’t need to catch the start of the trend — the middle part is where most of the money is made and it’s a lot safer. For example, I started using a 20-period EMA on the 4H chart to define direction, and then I’d only look for entries on the lower timeframe that aligned with that. I also backtested trailing stop strategies, and it was a game changer because I no longer had to predict exact exit points. The funny thing is, the simpler my system got, the better my results became. My advice is to stop hunting for the “perfect” entry and focus on consistency with the rules you trust. The trend won’t last forever, but if you stick with it while it’s strong, you can catch solid moves without driving yourself crazy.
