Trading Price Action Trading Ranges: Technical Analysis of Price Charts Bar by Bar for the Serious Trader

In Trading Price Action Trading Ranges, the final volume of his acclaimed trilogy, Al Brooks dives deep into one of the most complex yet frequent market behaviors: sideways price action. Unlike trending markets, trading ranges can be deceptive, full of traps, false breakouts, and sudden reversals. Brooks guides traders through these choppy waters with a master-level analysis that decodes the microstructure of trading ranges—bar by bar.

This book continues Brooks’ no-indicator approach, relying strictly on price action, support/resistance, and order flow logic. He explains how to distinguish between different types of trading ranges, how to trade within them, and how to anticipate breakouts and failed breakout reversals. Packed with real chart examples, detailed pattern analysis, and advanced bar-by-bar interpretation, this volume offers essential tools for navigating the most difficult market conditions with discipline and precision.
