“Momentum” simply means buy something if it is going up, and sell it if it is going down. There have been several academic surveys showing that applying this principle to all kinds of speculative markets is profitable over time and gives a winning trading “edge”.
Another type of Forex momentum strategy is a “best of” momentum trading strategy which buys those assets that are going up the most strongly and sells those going down most strongly. This also tends to work well and in fact tends to produce a greater reward to risk ratio than simple momentum strategies.
