Without a current trend, prices will stay relatively the same, and without changes in price, trading will not be profitable. Up trend: As the trend moves upward, the U.S. dollar is appreciating in value. Down trend: As the trend moves downward, the U.S. dollar is depreciating in value. Sideways trend: Prices are moving within a narrow range. (The currencies are neither appreciating or depreciating.)
