How to find THE BEST SHORT entry in a Range bounding market !!!!
Welcome to this tutorial
This is my personal take from multiple resources and +20 hours of research and my own experience with trading in a range-bound market.
Range-bound trading or in this case shorting in a range-bound market contains 5 simple phases:
phase A
Range High + Range low forms which lead us to have a Range market.
phase B
Price tends to deviate above the Range High or simply sweep (upthrust) above it.
Reasoning and psychology behind that= in order to catch the liquidity above the range high and trap breakout traders who just opened a long above the high before nuking to the Range Low.
phase C
BOS happens in ltf , triggering a trend reversal.
Supply forms below the resistance, that's where we would like to build our short position later on.
phase D
ltf Range forms after the first sell-off, creating our base to revisit the supply that previously formed above it.
(Ideally, you can enter a scalp long trade in this phase and close right at the supply)
phase E
Price finally revisit the supply in order to test it as resistance. Any bearish price action at the supply or ltf BOS triggers our entry, targetting the Range Low as our take profit point.
There you can have a nice +4 R/R short setup, remember to place your invalidation above the newly made local high just to be safe from stop hunters ;)
