Today , I will be showing the 3 kinds of movement in the market (besides our classic up , down , sideways ) ,how to spot them, and how they tend to intervene with one another.


Range;
When price is sitting in a range, that means it tends to be moving sideways , usually due to indecision amongst big investors.
I usually don't trade if price is moving in a range, however if you scalp you can catch huge R/R by buying at the bottom and selling at the top.

Trend:
The more safe, slow, and practical market to trade in. When price is moving in a trend, it tends to be moving *smoothly*. What I mean by this
is that while price is respecting the trend, it gradually moves to the desired location. This usually provides decent R/R with decent probability.

Fast Moving/Volatile:
This is the most dangerous market to trade if you're not experienced, knocking SL' clean out. When market is moving very volatile and fast, that's
usually due to more positions being added amongst traders. If you're not on the right side of the tug of war while these positions are being filled, you will suffer.
When price moves fast, it tends to stop fast also. TP' are harder to calculate during these times.
