Ivica, Do you do anything to mitigate overnight risk for stocks? Just wondering, I would like to swing some stocks but the overnight risk discourages me...
Ou need to use proper risk. But iof that is something new for you my advice is to start with extremly small risk and then see how you feel in swing trade. With time you can increase risk. Mine is never bigger then 1%
Thank you for your response Ivica. How about when a gap increases the real risk from 1% to 10-20%? Does that happen as often as the wins?
Well, of course that risk is here. But not that often as the wins. Not for sure. I'm trend trader and I won't say that can't happen. I never count % win/losses but for sure there are much more % on win side. I have few ideas for today but I can post only one because I dont know how to post several ideas in one post so if anyone will be interested contact me. Best Buy Co.
