What To Do When The Stock Market Opens Big In One Direction

InvestorEducation / Learn to Trade Jul 24, 2012 - 04:39 AM GMT

By: David_Grandey

InvestorEducation Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleAs a rule of thumb, anytime a market opens big in either direction, NEVER take a trade in the opening direction of the market when you have a big opening move. The big move already occurred. Just think if you would have shorted MNST and AAPL and a lot of others out there at the open today — OUCH. The flip side is don’t react and sell either right away. Have you seen what just about everything has done since the open? Bounced that’s what. Let the opening dust settle first and above all NEVER REACT.


Don’t blink!
How many times have we said it around here? Take a look at MNST, AAPL, SBUX and just about everything from the opening.
Just look at the chart notes in MNST, AAPL and SBUX just to name a few. Given the “Don’t Blink ” nature of the markets we do this so you know in advance and are prepared for when and if an opportunity presents itself.


Instead of reacting to a big move AFTER the big move has taken place, pay attention to support levels and don’t be afraid to “buy in the face of fear” leading stocks that have successfully tested support levels
