5. Economic Reports for Friday July 13, 2012
Hello Traders,
We saw some volatility in the markets today and swings on both sides. I expect more volatility during tomorrow’s session, which MOST day-traders like. Remember to adjust your trading size LOWER as volatility gets HIGHER….
Below is a daily chart of the mini Russell 2000 contract.
Tomorrow is Friday the 13th…I think if we take out today’s lows, the door will open for a more serious downside move.
GOOD TRADING!
