What Is Range?

A range is a sideways price area between roughly defined support and resistance where neither side dominates for a period.

Ranges produce mean-reversion opportunities and eventual breakouts.

Why Range Matters

  • Why traders care: Defines boundaries for fade or breakout playbooks.
  • Playbook fit: Best with structure, volume, and risk rules.
  • Alert fit: Clear levels or thresholds become Phalerta notifications.

How Traders Use Range

Mark range highs/lows. Alert both edges and optional mid invalidation.

Example: Range in Practice

A trader fades range extremes with alerts at support and resistance, plus a breakout alert beyond the box.

Pro Tip

Label range alerts separately from trend alerts.
