Ranges can be lucrative, as they offer trades with relatively low risk compared to the potential reward if the range continues. They look simple, but can be tough to trade in real-time. View support and resistance as price areas, not specific prices, because rarely will price stop and reverse at the exact same level(s) as before. An increase in volume should typically accompany a breakout, so if volume remains subdued while the price is in a support or resistance area there is a greater likelihood the range will hold. Price reversals near support or resistance help highlight that the range will continue. Stops can be placed just outside these reversal points to control risk, with targets near the other side of the channel. Only risk a small percentage of the trading account on any one trade, that way a single loss doesn't significantly draw down your capital.
