Premium and discount
Updated 2026-09-20
Definition
The two halves of a reference range: above 50% price is "expensive" (premium), below it's "cheap" (discount).
Why it matters
As a filter: buys preferably in discount, sells in premium. In strong trends price can stay in one zone for a long time: use it as an entry penalty, not an absolute ban.
Practical example
Range 1.0800-1.1000, equilibrium 1.0900: at 1.0870 price is in discount.
