요즘 NQ 변동성 어떻게 대응하고 계신가요? 🤔

But remember, NQ had the biggest one day move in history the other day. The daily ranges have been huge. You have to size down, but it’s easy to get 100-150 points. Your total risk dictates your size so if you want to risk $500, for instance, that means your size has to align with that.

I monitor around 8-10 stocks in a day. I trade those that are exhibiting familiar patterns and ignore those that aren't. I used to trade only QQQ. I have found that QQQ doesn't give me enough good days to trade, period. What ended up happening was that I would force trades on days that were no good to trade. I like to trade every day and feel I can. But that is only possible by monitoring an array of stocks. If you're trading only QQQ, don't expect to trade everyday. Instead backtest for criteria that appear maybe only like two times a week (maybe even once a week), watch QQQ everyday, and then when the criteria are met, trade those. Play around with different timeframes when backtesting. You may want to increase the time frame to a one, two, or three hour (or even longer) and enter once criteria are met and then expect to wait for an hour or two before you either hit a profit target or are stopped out. Also, you may want to monitor smaller time frames, such as the 5-minute, but only trade for the next 5-minute candle. In that scenario, you would could scale up bigger, the stops would be tighter, and your percentage rate would go up. But that scenario is bigger risk. It might require a lot more market watching, and you may be losing out on big gains. Track your trades, a 40-50% win rate is great if you go for R1.5s or R2s. If you can get R3s and R4s, you're good at a 30% win rate. If you're looking to hold onto bangers and know what the criteria are, you're good at even a 10% win rate. That's what Richard Dennis did. Some 95% of his trades hit stops. But the 5% that were green were monsters so large that they dwarfed all the losses easily. He made over $400 million during his trading career.
