But what about non trending day....as we really don't know which day would be trending and which are not? do u have any kind of analysis or afl which tells u this would be trending or a non trending day?
specifically asking becoz mkt did not moved today till 12/12.30 and it suddenly started moving after that
We can always find stocks which are trending no need to trade BNF and NF always.
Best solution is to avoid sideways all together.
Still if you want to trade it best setup is to trade breakout failures in non trending market or look for congestion patterns like triangles,wedges and trade them with tight SL.
Or try shorting on reversal patterns( hammer,shooting star etc) at top of the range of the sideways and vice versa at bottom of the range or simply short 5 min bar low break at top of the range.
Every setup SL will be small. Try to exit half at fixed target of 2-3R and trail rest.
