### **Low Volatility Zones**

Low volatility zones exhibit tighter price ranges and subdued market activity. These zones often indicate:

* **Consolidation**: Periods where the market is indecisive, typically leading to accumulation or distribution phases.
* **Trend Reversals**: Low volatility can precede significant price movements as market participants prepare for the next directional move.
* **Reduced Risk**: Limited price fluctuations make these zones ideal for tighter stop-loss placements and precise entries.
