Countertrend Strategy

What Does Countertrend Strategy Mean?
A trading strategy where an investor attempts to make small gains through a series of trades against the current trend. It is also known as "counter-trend trading".
Investopedia explains Countertrend Strategy

Many counter-trend investors use momentum indicators to determine the best times to execute their trades.
