Hello Traders,

For 2013 I would like to wish all of you discipline and patience in your trading! 

 

WOW…what a volatile 36 hours in so many markets.
BIG down moves in many markets and huge spike in volatility.
If you are a daytrader, make sure you stay discipline and choose only trades you feel have good risk-reward. Times like these are not the times to trade with out stops in my opinion….Understand that the market swings are wider, reduce trade size and give your trades a little more room.

5. Futures Economic Reports for Tuesday June 18, 2013

Hello Traders,

For 2013 I would like to wish all of you discipline and patience in your trading! 

 

September is front month now for most futures contracts.

Stock index futures are more volatile the last 2 weeks than we seen in a while. Many times, this can be a signal of a longer term trend change but the main thing for most of you who are daytraders, is to simply understand and expect higher intraday volatility.  Higher intraday volatility for me = trading smaller size, being more picky in my entry levels and allowing more room than normal for my trades and NOT using very tight stops. Of course, this is my opinion and every trader is different but in general this is what I do when the volatility increases.

Big moves in many markets. High volatility. Once again, I am not a fan of entering trades without stops….if you are a day trader and got in the wrong way today on the currencies for example, with out a stop….by the time you were finally able to collect your emotions and thoughts you may have been pretty deep in the hole. So yes, stops will take you out with a loss and sometimes you will get stopped out just to see the market go back your way, but for me personally stops are what prevent traders from “blowing up” and making a small bad day into a terrible day. Expect more volatility tomorrow as we have monthly Non farm Payroll report early in the morning.
