How to identify a TREND or RANGE market early in DaytradingTrading and Price Action can be broken down into tow simple terms...a 'range bound' market and a 'trend' market. Being able to identify the price action early is key to successful daytrading.
In the video I discuss how I like to daytrade Indexes and especially how I look to identify a RANGE or a TREND market. As there really is only TWO WAYs to trade....ie/ reversion to the mean or continuation trading...it is important to identify the market conditions early to get on the right side of the market and take full advantage of a move up or down.
I discuss my basic approach to trading and what I look for to identify the market conditions.
I talk about my trading style and general entry criteria.

GER30 are sellers starting to take control?
Hi, and welcome to Friday's update. In today's video, we are focusing on the GER30 daily chart. Price action and the OBV indicator are starting to show signs that sellers could be gaining short-term control over the market.
Looking at price we can see that buyers made a failed breakout attempt, and sellers came in strong on the next session with an engulfing bar. Yesterday buyers held a rally but closed well-off highs showing plenty of rejection. Today, sellers have started a new move but still have a little work to do. We would like to see sellers continue to push lower and break support seen at 13,640. A break and close below yesterday's low could be the trigger for a new leg lower if sellers can hold the move.
If buyers can regain control and close price back above 13,750, we would be looking for more evidence before we continue to think that the market is set to break lower.
What are your thoughts? We also like to hear feedback from our readers. Thanks for stopping by. We hope you are all enjoying your Friday and good trading.
