    there is a special way to trade this sort of market. brooks teaches it and so do others.

    i think 70% of the time the market is similar to this.

    use very wide stops scale in....and get out near previous highs/ lows.

    when you see moves with both bull and bear bars alternating and then you get 5 bars of same color you start fading it with wide stop and plan to scale in 2-3 times.

    you have to but below bars and sell above bars

    it is quite simple if you do this

    slowly i am beginning to understand brooks.

    there is, most of time, a bear case and a bull case.

    in a strong trend either the bull or bear is obviously the one to take...but 70% of time it could be either.

    now compare India Nifty with today's crude oil chart.

    crude oil movement is decisive.

    right.

    alternatives could be
    - use a bigger time frame / volume chart
    - use bigger stop
    - trade other intercorrelated futures which are not choppy
    - don't trade at all

    i like: do not trade until it becomes clear....why trade difficult situations

    Both charts you posted are Easy to make money from. If you post another chart, I will say it easy as well. Every chart is VERY easy to trade and make money.

  9. Hello padutrader,

    There is no "special way" to trade that kind of market. Because you do not know what kind of market it will be when you wake up in the morning.

    As an Al Brook student, you need to learn and love to trade any chart presented to you at any give time the chart is shown. That is why its called bar by bar analysis.

    Go to Brooks webinar he does live everyday.

    and there is a special way ......enter on limit orders scale in and keep very wide stops
