Counterstrafing in Valo is different its like having that split second where you are accurate but you're still moving , from enemy's pov it will look like you're running and gunning. Just keep practicing in range knowing when to shoot when doing A - D or D - A, you have like 2-3 bullets that will stick to your crosshair. You'll build up the feeling of knowing that you're on the 'standstill' position then transitioning to moving.
