For one you can model spread price action over time - and you can apply statistical and technical analysis tools. That’s the first place to start.
Hey thanx for the reply..i have been a price action trader for the last 12 years , focusing on the near month calender spreads and scalping them, but probabaly because of huge algo activity now a days price action is not that clear . BTW what statistical tools should i use for the starters..
Yeah, you can't scalp those any more - but they are FANTASTIC swing trades. Look at longer term intervals like 360 min., Daily, and Weekly. Don't fade moves.
