What futures trend the most? For example, the indexes "mean reversion" creates whipsaw trades in the consolidation phase. Ouch. Is there a market that inherently minimizes this effect? What is a simple test for "trendability"?

What is a simple test for "trendability"?

The ADX is widely known for trendability. https://www.investopedia.com/articles/trading/07/adx-trend-indicator.asp
Each day just count the # of bars where ADX is 50 or over. Then take that number over the total number of bars for the day.

ZN trends are pretty nice.

The best help in trading is to determine S/R Levels

This won't help when the market is choppy and trendless.
