Quote from NeoRio1:
A random entry strategy would work if you have a stock consolidating in the same old range for at least a couple of weeks. Buy in the middle and sell when the price is above what you bought it at. It's so easy a caveman could do it.
you do not KNOW if a stock will do that in the future. If you knew the future, then one would make all the money they want. There are many possible futures, so this statement has no value.
