During such times, it’s extremely important not to force trades in an effort to anticipate the start of a meaningful move. The drifty price action found within those trading ranges makes it extra difficult to gauge momentum, so making shorter-term trades with tighter stops and narrower objectives for targets is a necessary approach during such times.

The experienced trader has been around and seen it all, and often times can spot a move coming from a mile away. Plus they have an uncanny ability to sift through all the noise and get to what really matters - gauging the forces of supply and demand. Stated otherwise, they know how to wait on the market.

I am regular stock trader and I strongly believe in the same theory which you have summarized now. I don't get unnecessary washed out in any unwanted stock at any position but I wait for the market to give me a chance to enter and i have found this really work great. Hi Jeff,
