Ride the narrative. Fundamentals > your feelings.

Trade smart or get smoked.

1. Liquidity gets tricky, so execution matters

Spreads often widen, limit orders might not fill, and slippage becomes a real issue. Stop-losses can get skipped or filled at worse prices. Stick with limit orders and avoid market orders unless you’re intentionally scalping with a plan.

2. Volatility brings both opportunity and danger

Big moves can mean fast profits, but they can also wipe you out just as quickly. Reduce your position size unless you’re experienced, because volatility magnifies every decision. Sometimes it’s better to wait for the initial chaos to pass before jumping in.

3. The narrative drives the market

Price doesn’t just react to the event, it reacts to how the event compares to expectations. Stay on top of breaking news, shifts in sentiment, and how the tape is behaving. If momentum kicks in based on a strong narrative, don’t fight it with technicals alone.

Here’s the ultimate point. You can just leave the market alone can come back later. If you’re not prepared or lack confidence come back when everything has calmed down. It will.
