The market staged a late day rally after an early-morning plunge, but there’s still a lot of uncertainty…
And it’s going to stay that way until we find out by how much the Fed is raising interest rates.
What’s the quote? Ah, that’s it, Dr. Samuel Johnson – “Depend upon it, Sir, when a man knows he is to be hanged in a fortnight, it concentrates his mind wonderfully.”
I love that people back then would do the most brutal stuff imaginable but were oh so delicate with their diction.
Anyway, tech stocks might be looking at a “hanging,” and the housing market could be set for the gallows too. There’s a real danger that would-be buyers are simply being priced out of the market by the surging mortgage rates.
I wouldn’t be surprised to see yesterday’s momentum carry into this morning, as traders try to lock in gains before the Fed makes its announcement. It’s only the second day of the trading week, but it’s going to feel like a whole new year in two days, as the entire trading environment will have changed.
We could be entering a sustained bear market. But a good trader knows how to gain regardless of the circumstances.
Don’t miss “The Best In The Game,” Chris Hood, with some sage advice about how to handle the situation.
It’s not just about making the big wins… it’s about avoiding unnecessary losses. And the key is mindset, mindset, mindset.
Go forth and conquer.
Keep Moving,
Any strategy that makes you money consistently is worthwhile.
Though many new traders believe that trading is primarily about indicators and tools, Chris maintains that it is at least 95% about emotional control.
This is especially relevant in this bearish, choppy market which has made the trading world extremely difficult.
