|  | TradersLaboratory decodes Range Trading Range trading is based on the fact that prices form channels independent of whether prices are trending upwards or downwards or sideways. It assumes that 80% of the time, the candlesticks will bounce up from lower channel trendlines and retreat from upper channel trend lines. By selling at resistance and buying at support levels, a trader may be able to profit from these moves in the market. Pivot points also form a basis of horizontal range trading, as opposed to use of ascending channels for uptrend range trading and descending channels for downtrend range trading. |
