Silver Futures Went through a wild ride this past 2 weeks ( Reddit??)
Volatility continues in Silver. We look at today’s activity as a short-covering reversal of this week’s wash-out selling spree. The price retreat found several justifications: higher equities, generally positive U.S. economic data, an upside continuation of dollar – to 2-month highs above 91.50 – and the highest US Treasury yields since last February. All these lent pressure to precious metals as traders moved risk to the attractiveness of higher returns in debt and equities

Survivor Day-Trader
By: Ilan Levy-Mayer, Cannon Trading VP
Survivor Day Trading
This article was published by the Stocks, Futures, & Options Magazine in September, 2007 and was written by our VP, Ilan Levy-Mayer. We think this article is timeless and whether you are beginner or advanced trader, you will enjoy it.
Perhaps the greatest luxury I have in this business is the ability to observe the experiences of many traders with different personalities, life schedules and risk capital, each trading in a variety of markets. What most astute brokers realize is that, over time, as some individuals prematurely exit winners while others desperately cling to losers.
I started as a commodity broker back in 1998, when commissions of $25 per round turn for the E-minis were considered a deep discount. I had the luxury of observing many types of day traders and saw things from the sidelines that most traders could not see during the heat of battle, one of which is the importance of solid money management for the long-term survival of day trade.
Day trading is by definition a trade that is initiated and completed during the same trading day. In this wide category, you will find many types of traders. On one end of the spectrum are scalpers, who go for one or two ticks of profit several times a day in trades lasting just seconds. On the other side are speculators who stay in a position from the start of the day until the close. One of the main appeals of day trading for all types is that the trader goes home flat without having to worry about positions. When the market closes, the day is done.
Money management, as the name implies, is applying prudent principles to help conserve your trade (risk) capital. Without risk capital to trade, a speculator does not have a chance to succeed.

The difference between yesterday and today is one of the strongest contrasts I have seen!
The market went from driving at 180 MPH, erratically…to driving 25 MPH, obeying all the speed bumps.
Was it news headlines yesterday? Lack of news today? Did market participants get tired? Are you prepared for future trading?
Normally volatility will go in waves and now from 100% to 10% in one day.
If one could only forecast volatility, would make ones trading life much easier.
Speaking of volatility, FOMC tomorrow along with Crude Oil numbers before that and a few more reports.
Know what news are coming, which ones affect the markets you trade.
While I touch base quite often on ES, NQ and other stock indices, I also like to follow other markets. Some are better for shorter term trading some are better for swing or longer term etc. future
trading predictions really depends on how they are performing. One of these markets, soybeans futures. Daily chart below. Click for larger Image.
