Should we avoid trading when bulls and bears are neck to neck?

[yogesh]

Agree with you freinds that good analysis and being strict with rules and plan will help, but in situation when there is ongoing fight in bulls and bears any movement we may see big move to either side and at that time we may get big losses as our stop may trigger much below than where we set it.
So better to be cautious of abnormal market conditions.

when bears and bulls are neck to neck, then most of the time the market ranges. it is not so bad scenario, you just have to apply some range bound tactics rather than riding the trend which isnt there.

[tubeltkadal]

with good analysis, we do not need to avoid it all. better confidence in our trading system.
so it all depends on the trading system that we use. greetings successful

yea this is the point when we do not have the good idea to do the good trades in forex and we can not make the good money so we lose the money if we will not understand the market well at this moment so we should not do the tradings at this point

yes it is better to follow wait and watch policy when bull's and bears fight for control of the market as that moment the direction of the market is neither clear not it can be predicted .Any good news or development can change the direction in bulls favour and bad in bears, So we should trade if at all very carefully at this moment in very small quantity

Forex trading is always a matter of balancing the risks to the rewards. There is never a perfect time to trade and we can only hope to find the least objectionable time to open our trade.

It depend on traders trading style. I think trend is very important for trading. If trader identify good and perfect trend then trader use that trend for trading. But i think if trader dont identify trend then trade should wait.

yes with our predictions are correct about the trend mejadikan we will win the trade so this is very important and must be learned if we use it without identifying the daily or weekly

no it is the best time for trading in my opinion, because there is no trend so if you make wrong position it will not float deeply in minus and it will come back to your entry point or even it may make profits, it is best also for scalping when the market is moving between 2 points

it essentially scalping trading strategy to avoid the news ..
or can say good on the price movement of handle links the fluctuation range of low price
not high ...
so I think this strategy could be used at other hours in which if there's no news at the time of price fluctuations or not so fast

[jimloveski]

I acctually like this situation- I don't trade when bears and bulls are fighting each other but I wait till one of them wins and this is great time to jump into the market for some profit. The very first sign of taking control in the market by bulls or bears we can by looking at candlesticks.

You can trade, there is no restriction in trading. If you have a way of trading in a ranging market then why not, do it. And after that when you have a break out, you can also trade on that break out using any break out strategy.
