The "Opening Range" Secret Most Traders Miss...

Ever notice how the first hour of trading feels like pure chaos?

Most traders just see random price movement. But there's something powerful happening that could completely change how you trade...

It's called the Opening Range - and understanding it properly could be the difference between consistent profits and constant frustration.

Let me share something I noticed during a recent trading session that perfectly illustrates this...

I was watching Tesla form what traders call an "opening range high." 

And this isn't just some random price level - it's actually a crucial psychological barrier that can define the entire day's trading action.

The mistake most traders make…

Is treating the opening range like any other price level.

While the range actually shows us where the smart money is positioning itself right out of the gate.

Think about it - in those first 15-30 minutes of trading, institutional traders are establishing their positions. 

They're not gambling like retail traders - they're methodically building positions based on their game plan for the day.

I used to ignore these levels early in my trading career. 

I'd jump into trades without considering where the "big boys" had drawn their lines in the sand. 

And my account paid the price for that ignorance.

But once I started respecting the opening range, something clicked...

When a stock holds above its opening range high, it often signals strong bullish intent for the day. When it breaks below the opening range low, bears might be taking control.

This isn't just theory - I watched Tesla respect these exact levels during our trading session. 

The stock used the opening range high as support multiple times, creating perfect low-risk entry opportunities for those who understood what they were seeing.

But here's the crucial part...

You can't just blindly trade these levels. 

• You need confirmation. 

• Volume 

• Market breadth

• Sector momentum

They all play a role in validating whether an opening range breakout or breakdown is likely to follow through.

Remember: The market gives us clues about its intentions right from the open. 

Your job is to learn to read those clues and position yourself accordingly.

Trading isn't about predicting the future. 

It's about reading the market's language and adapting your strategy to match what it's telling you.
