I hate sounding like a broken record but be careful out there!!
Dont blow your account up ! Control your emotions and stay disciplined.
I personally recommend using HARD STOPS, you don’t want to get caught in some crazy moves or when the FED lower rates in a surprise move…..
Volatility has SPIKED, tremendously. That is a game changer.
Here are some recent changes to margins due to volatility:
Metals and Energy Margins
Gold from            $5,500 to $6,000
Silver                 $5,500 to $6,000
Palladium           $24,200 to $28,050
Natural Gas (J)  $1,500 to $1,300
Interest rate & FX Margins
Euro Future       $1,870 to $1,980
Japanese Yen    $2,365 to $2,640
10 yr Note          $1,265 to $1,403
30 yr Bond         $3,080 to $3,245
Equity Index
DJIA Futures      $6,050 to $6,820
Nasdaq-100      $8,250 to $9,350
Russell 2000       $3,520 to $3,960
E-mini S&P         $7,260 to $7,920
Nikkei Futures  $5,610 to $6,050
The speed and nervousness in which the markets moved these past few days create more risk than opportunity for MOST traders. This is a personal opinion.
Sometimes no trade is better than a bad trade.
Control.
MICROS are a good smaller alternative!!
