Trade Aptitude

Warren Buffett is famous for his annual letter to shareholders. If you haven’t read one you should know that he’s a great writer and borderline humorist, well worth reading.

Since we’re near all-time highs in the stock market and the AI craze is bringing out the description “bubble” I’ll share some Buffett on that topic with you. 

Feb. 25, 2012 “Over the past 15 years, both Internet stocks and houses have demonstrated the extraordinary excesses that can be created by combining an initially sensible thesis with well-publicized rising prices. In these bubbles, an army of originally skeptical investors succumbed to the ‘proof’ delivered by the market, and the pool of buyers—for a time—expanded sufficiently to keep the bandwagon rolling. But bubbles blown up large enough inevitably pop. And then the old proverb is confirmed once again: ‘What the wise man does in the beginning, the fool does in the end.’”

Not being a long-term investor, I started thinking how I might apply the old proverb to my day and swing trading. The answer was an exit technique I use, but not nearly enough: The parabolic move (extended range bar/candle). Maybe I’ll rename it the Buffett Exit.

Our trading teams focus on multiple strategies for day trading futures and high-probability candidates for swing trading options. You can learn either or both risk-free. Join us.
