DT,
I use a combination of indicators forming an expert system to handle
different market situations, but this system does not work during
periods of high volatility and also during periods of combined low
volatility and indecision in the market.
Hence, during these periods the best position to have is being flat,
but if already in a position, protect it using a trailing stop or a
break-even stop.
But during periods of normal volatility, when I detect a continuation
signal, I wait till the market opens for verification of that signal.
In general, if the market opens higher, it has a high probability of
closing higher, so if I had detected a long signal, and the market
opens higher, I would go long and exactly the opposite for a short
signal. But if the market opens lower, it would be ugly indeed. I'm
unable to verify this signal, before the market opens.
But, I did some extreme simulation to get a probable scenario and I am
biased towards going long, once the volatility has come down, maybe
sometime next week, but since the volatility jumped sharply higher
from Thursday to Friday, better to avoid taking a position on monday.
The key is the current trend and volatility. The trend is your friend
till the end and volatility is your friend until it turns on you.
