Weekly Market Volatility Warning: Beware of the potential risks brought by fluctuations.
If you think "everything is already priced in," then this week might surprise you.
Next week will be not only busy — but also dangerous. This is how traders are forced to close positions.
Monday
The Federal Reserve quietly injects $6.8 billion in liquidity.
No big news, but the market usually reacts afterward.
Tuesday
U.S. unemployment data is released.
A weak number, risk assets drop.
A soft number, shorts get squeezed hard.
Wednesday
Federal Reserve officials speak continuously.
Mixed messages, false breakouts, stop hunting everywhere.
Thursday
Unemployment claims.
Seems harmless — impacts the market within minutes.
Friday
Bank of Japan interest rate decision.
This is a real black swan.
One word from the Bank of Japan could trigger a global liquidity shock.
This is the part most traders don’t want to hear.
Volatility appears when everyone feels comfortable, not when they are scared.
Next week is not a time for emotions.
Not a time for revenge trading.
Not a time for heavy leverage.
Small trades.
Protect capital.
Let others become the exit liquidity.
Charts are about to experience violent fluctuations.
Be prepared — or become prey.
