Trend vs. pullback

To work on the trend, some indicators work well, but they don't help you identify a bottom that would generate the reversal. So, if you are going to work with the trend, you need to be patient and give up looking for tops and bottoms. Also for this reason, it is not possible to let a bot operate in the trend autonomously, as it can trigger precisely in the reversal.

Searching for tops and bottoms is costly, and if you need a few tries to enter a reversal, the larger move needs to be very large to accommodate those attempts. That is, looking for reversal bottoms is very dangerous (and will definitely consume a lot of time), so it is more prudent to wait for a reversal signal and enter the trend.
