⚠️ The #1 Trap Retail Traders Fall Into During Range-Bound Markets
When price moves sideways, most traders burn through their balance trying to trade every micro-move.
Here is what happens during low-volatility ranges:
1. Price breaks resistance slightly ➔ Retail buys the breakout ➔ Price drops back inside the range (Fakeout).
2. Price breaks support slightly ➔ Retail panics and shorts ➔ Price bounces back up (Liquidity sweep).
Smart money uses range-bound conditions to build positions quietly. Retail uses it to over-trade and pay exchange fees.
📌 How to handle choppy markets:
• Trade lower position sizes.
• Focus on key daily/weekly levels instead of 5-minute charts.
• Shift time toward learning new narrative fundamentals instead of staring at charts all day.
Patience is an actual trading edge. 🧘♂️ BP-46E0C96EC431
