    Well,

    Range, what range?

    Vix @ a 7 yr low. Look @ weekly ATR and you'll see ES which has historically been a very volatile market is @ 25 pts/5 days.

  3. apologies,

    I thought you meant potiential for a "wider range" day...

    as for what you are asking... in theory this seems near impossible.

    ranges can quickly expand if stops get run

  4. Here's how TI finds interesting opportunities with expanding and contracting ranges:

    Look for NarrowRange4s - NR7. Coiled springs, bb inside Kelters will generally proceed a sloping trin type day with good range. Always seems to be at least one track day in the middle run from s to resistance then contraction at those key levels. I think another tight range day tomorrow. Then down slowly then boom up and through to the promised land.:D :mad: :D
