Episode notes
Identifying Market Capitulation
- Capitulation is best identified by high volume gap down days and breadth thrusts that signal market bottoms.
- Power trends and market sentiment data can empirically guide buy-the-dip strategies.
Use Risk Reversals for Volatile Stocks
- Consider risk reversal options: sell puts and buy calls to participate in upside while limiting risk.
- Use this structure especially for volatile stocks to avoid day-to-day babysitting.
Smart Stop Loss Strategies
- Use flexible, thoughtful stop rules rather than rigid ones to avoid being stopped out prematurely.
- Allow for volatility by not placing stops exactly at moving averages but slightly below with cushion.
