Market Strategies - amins - 04-04-2009 So, I've been learning about Technical Analysis the last 4 months, taking classes & webinars while working on my Canadian Securities qualifications, and the other day i came across this strategy: Typically 4 times a year (I'm assuming, once per quarter) a company earnings comes out: Set up either a Straddle or Iron Condor (Bear Call Spread & Bull Put Spread). This strategy assumes that earnings will directly effect sintement and one way or another, the stock will move the following day, so long as you're watching it, you can cut losses when it makes it move. Any thoughts? Other 'for sure' strategies out there that'll help reduce risk for people not willing to 'jump in'? - Bulgy - 04-04-2009 I find that a ski-mask and a large caliber handgun can earn net cash profits in what I would call a highly volatile market these days. There is some risk involved of course.... and nothing is for sure. |
