Do You Ever Trade a Gap Ups From the Short Side?

Data. A very boring word no doubt. When I hear the word “data” I think of geeky scientists in their white lab coats typing away on their calculators. For me, as someone who is by no means a genius, the word carries with it a bit of intimidation because I’m not smart enough to be some geeky scientist in a white lab coat! Whether you are a beginner trader or someone who has experience but is still fine tuning your journey, if you are not using data, you should be! We welcome back community member Matt (chatroom alias, “brigbills”) who updates us on his journey and how things have been going. If you have not connected the dots already, data has and continues to play a huge role in Matt’s current journey. While I don’t want to sound overly dramatic about it, the data has been a total game changer for him and opened his eyes in ways he would never have imagined. I love Matt’s passion for the world of trading and the seriousness in which he is treating everything. If you aren’t inspired to do a deep dive into your trading data after this episode, I’m not sure if there is anything that will convince you. Let’s go!
