Premium and discount

Splitting a price range at its 50% midpoint defines premium (the upper half, 'expensive') and discount (the lower half, 'cheap'). A common disciplined bias is to look for longs only in the discount zone and shorts only in the premium zone, improving the reward-to-risk of entries. The zones depend on which range you measure.
