I’ve been getting my butt kicked in my day trades. I’ve been getting to excited with big drops and big bounces, and ignoring my strategy… not good.
Anyway, today is August, a historically junk month in the market. I’ve been checking screens, and reading all types of market indicators and charts. All of that got me no where. I’m more confused, but that should be expected in this choppy market. Anyway, this will be a big week on the street since next week we have that highly anticipated FOMC meeting. For now, earnings and a little bit of Hezbollah news will drive the market. Stay tuned.
