It was an exciting week in the US markets as they pushed forward 0.7% to notch their best week weekly gain in almost 2 years.

The Aussie market also performed well bouncing up 2.1% to recover 50% of its recent losses.

Expect volatility to be high this coming week as the Federal Reserve meets on Wednesday. Ashley’s trading tip is to monitor your stop losses carefully.

Multiple Market Types - ASHLEY JESSEN
Purple patches may come and go but types of markets stay the same.

In an ideal world Ashley Jessen recommends using multiple trading systems for 3 market types.

Trending
Range-bound
Volatile

However, the reality of time scarcity means that most traders need to have ONE system with a strong awareness of which market it suits best and to target your indicators and expectations accordingly.

Ashley covers the biggest problems traders make when building their systems, the main market types you should focus on, the right technical indicators to cover each market type and setting expectations around your new trading systems. Listen to this and you'll feel at ease with the big picture of what is required to build effective trading systems and smooth your equity curve.
