Big volume and HUGE volatility over the past two weeks. DEFINITELY changed the day trading environment.
The winning philosophy in market environment like this, is to be VERY picky with entry points that will provide for good risk / reward entry. That means that sometimes you will need to be able to risk NOT getting in a trade / “miss the trade” rather than chase the trade and let the high voltality “shake you out of the market”. Another method to cope with increased volatility is to simply reduce your trading size. Wishing everyone a good, relaxing weekend and recharge for another wild week to come!
