Trend is a friend, that's what I always read from the theories on the internet.

I've tried a counter trend and it turns out I'm a margin call ... so it's better to trade by following the trend

What are you talking about, trend counters can be profitable if you are used to it and can identify the end of the trend.

in my opinion even though we make the trend is a friend, we still have to be able to know the character of a trend.

although rarely convergent patterns are not always accurate friends, but more accurate so it must be observant.
each chart pattern must have its own characteristics so it is clear that we must know and understand whether the pattern is valid or not.

trend as a friend, I often hear that.
therefore it must know the trend movement well and do not fight the current trend because it can make a loss.

It is true but not as simple as that, following trends must know and be able to identify trends, when the trend is strong, when the trend will end and so on.

In technical analysis, we are always advised to follow the trend, but we must also understand that the trend is divided into three levels:
1. Beginning trend
2. Middle trend
3. End trend

We must be able to detect the current trend level where, if it is at the end of the trend, for me the best trading option is a counter trend, because we can get very good rewards with very little risk.
trends will not always be friends. there are times when the trend will saturate and reverse direction

It is not necessary to challenge the trends that occur. Just follow the trends, yet we are trading with relatively small capital compared to the whole market participants

you have to understand the trend whether it is still strong or reversal, don't just follow it because a trend must have its end.

If you want to survive in forex, follow the cycle of price movements. If the market is going up, follow to buy, and if the market is down, follow it by selling. Following it will always have a positive impact on your transaction, because the more you follow it the more comfortable your trading will be.

Don't try or have the desire to fight the market trend. When prices are falling sharply, that means prices are moving fast and strong to continue the trend. Don't try to predict the price going up right then, or counting and looking for the right point to open a buy position.
