Trending And Trading Markets – Finding The Best Indicators For Each

Today's guest is Karen Stanlake of RangeTraders.com. Karen is going to tell us about the difference between trading and trending markets and some tools she uses in each market condition.

Markets will either trend or trade. That is, they either move up, down, or go sideways. A common mistake is applying the wrong indicator to the wrong market condition. That would be like wearing a winter coat on a July afternoon in Phoenix!

I'm not going to rhapsodize about the problems in Europe, they are well known and are manifesting themselves in the price action of the world markets, however, in this short video on the euro I want to show you how monthly charts and our "Trade Triangles" tell the story and show the trend very clearly. I also show you a simple method that you can use in your everyday trading to estimate how far a move can go. Continue reading "The return of the Greek drachma ... it's coming"
