Dear Traders,

Intra-day as well as day to day volatility continues to be extremely high.

I hate sounding like a broken record but one must adjust their trading, money management and more to be able to survive in this high volatility period.

Review your trading, do some homework every day. be honest with yourself and adjust where you need to adjust.

Make sure you are trading the right size?

working with stops?

Reviewing your settings for targets and stops?

Keeping a journal?

Trading is not easy and if you don’t put the time and effort to try and be better the bottom line in your account will reflect this.
