Use this for Strategy for Sideways Markets & Trading Ranges

Day Trading Ranges and Sideways Markets
Trading Range = resistance overhead and support below.  No defined width of the range, just that we have a level above and a level below.
Sideways Market = a lot of different characteristics
·         Double-tops and bottoms
·         Flat Trigger Line
·         Inconsistent speed at the highs or lows of the range
What are our basic trading rules for trading inside a range: (3 phases of every sideways range)
·         Sell the Highs / Sell Resistance
·         Avoid the Middle
·         Buy the Lows / Buy Support
·         Competing against the smartest minds in the world
·         Too much liquidity which makes the market very slow and sloppy, and we simply have better options in other markets.
·         Trades at $5/tick, which is a less efficient way of earning income.
·         Why work for $5/tick when it costs me $5 to enter/exit the market?
·         Not when i have Gold, Russell, Crude Oil, Euro all at $10 or more!
Day Trading with Low Volume and No Tape Reading is also very easy with the right strategy.
