Nicolas Darvas Box High-Volume Expansion

Box breakout · WeeksRisk: High

Nicolas Darvas's box theory: stocks pushing above a defined trading box near the 52-week high with volume. A new high leaving a clear range (box) behind.

Entry
Above the top of the box.
Stop-loss
Just below the bottom of the box (or the box top once the move is confirmed).
Reward
Move the stop up as each new, higher box forms.
Main risk
Few stocks qualify; wide boxes mean wide stops, so size positions smaller.
