This feels like the kind of market where one bad trade can erase a month’s worth of gains. I’ve been trading smaller and focusing on A+ setups only, but it’s hard to be that patient every day. What’s helped you survive—and even thrive—through volatile markets in the past?

Limiting the number of positions I open and buying even further out than usual. Short term trades are even more dangerous when the market is as choppy as it has been this past week. I'll gladly pay a higher premium to give myself extra time for my plays to turn profitable.

I don't like to trade every day. I actually wait for red folder news events that will really drive the market. Wait for CPI or PPI to come out pre-market or days like OPEX

Can anyone offer some guidance? Does my prior exp hold no value?

Long time in the making; but we finally sold off from our 50% HWB short. We had two tests at the 3400 level, getting as high as 3420 today before the sell off. Momentum and pessimism over lack of stimulus could take us to the 3107 target quickly, nearly a 10 percent decline over the next month. Stay short my friends. It's going to get bumpy.
