Trend trading in Forex involves recognizing crowd behavior that results in uptrends and downtrends on various timeframes. Traders make profits by identifying sequences of higher highs and higher lows in an uptrend, or lower lows and lower highs in a downtrend, and adjusting stop losses accordingly. The document emphasizes a strategy by Jon McFarlane that focuses on these key elements without the use of indicators.
