Making money in markets like this

A couple of pointers:

Don't just not be greedy be gracious. Set tight stops and limits that will execute intra-day, especially days like yesterday where we had a 140 point swing from top to bottom. 10% returns instead of 25-50%. Look for an aggregate percentage return over multiple trading days instead of all at once.

If you are buying Puts or Calls to trade premiums by them in the money not just at the money, this will provide more cushion to recover if the market swings widely in either direction. Set your buy up lower than you normally would to take advantage of the swings.

This will be another telling week with more economic data to solidify consensus on going higher or lower this year. Trade accordingly.

Continued Happy Trading...
