Range trading strategy, which is also called channel trading, is generally associated with the lack of market direction and it is used during the absence of a trend. Range trading identifies currency price movement in channels and the first task of this strategy is to find the range. This process can be carried out by connecting a series of highs and lows with a horizontal trendline. In other words, the trader should find the major support and resistance levels with the area in between known as “trading range”.
Range trading actually works in a market with just enough volatility due to which the price goes on wiggling in the channel without breaking out of the range. In the case the level of support and resistance breaks you should exit range-based positions. The most efficient way of managing this type of risk is the use of stop and limit orders as most traders do. They place stop limit orders when the currency price keeps dropping below the entry point and set the limit order to make profit when the security moves to the top of the range. In other words, while selling a range you should set limit orders down near the support level to take profit and while buying, you should place take profit orders at the previously defined resistance level
