"Support and Resistance & Consolidation"
A consolidation occurs when the price of an asset moves within a range, between a defined level of support and resistance. Consolidations can provide traders with opportunities to identify potential breakouts and to trade with runners as they move the price towards the breakout level.
Support levels are price points where demand for an asset is strong enough to prevent the price from falling further, while Resistance levels are price points where supply is strong enough to prevent the price from rising further.
"Trendlines can be drawn to connect the highs and lows of the price movement during the consolidation period.
These will form the upper and lower boundaries of the consolidation range."
"Technical analysis tools such as Bollinger Bands, RSI, and Moving Averages can be used to confirm the consolidation and identify potential breakout levels."
During consolidations, runners can be identified by looking for assets with a consistent pattern of higher lows or higher highs.
Traders can buy when the price is moving towards the resistance level and sell when the price is moving towards the support level. You should set stop-loss orders and avoid trading with too much leverage to manage risk while trading in consodilations ranges.
Potential breakout levels can be identified by looking for price movements that break through the upper or lower boundaries of the consolidation range.
Traders can enter a long or short position once the price breaks out of the consolidation range.
Stop-loss orders can be placed below the support level for a long position or
above the resistance level for a short position.
Managing risk while trading the breakout is through a set profit targets and or use of trailing stop-loss orders to manage risk when trading the breakout as breakouts are reasons why traders intent to spot and run with runners , without jumping the gun.
