>>>Wall Street’s forecast engine on your chart? See how during the red carpet roll-out of Maverick — live at 11 AM ET on Saturday<<<
When the market gets headline-heavy, I get cautious — and so should you.
This is one of those weeks. Tariff chatter is everywhere, earnings season is picking up, retail sales are on deck and volatility is still hanging around in the 30s. You don’t need to be a hero in a week like this. You need to manage your risk and let time decay do its job.
Take Gains Early and Leave the Rest
I’m not trying to squeeze every last penny out of trades right now. On setups like the ANET vertical, I’m aiming for 10% to 20% and moving on. The structure is working — we’re just close enough to max gain that time decay takes longer to kick in. So unless price moves quickly in our favor, we have to be willing to hold longer, or scale out when we’re close to targets.
There’s just too much that can go wrong between now and expiration. One bad headline can flip the setup — and in this kind of environment, news moves faster than price. So I’d rather be in and out early with a small win than hold for the dream and get blindsided.
Why I Don’t Roll Trades
Let me be clear: I don’t roll trades. If the trade didn’t work, it didn’t work. That’s part of the game.
In this kind of choppy, news-sensitive market, it’s more important than ever to stay honest with your trades. That means sticking to predefined exits, not chasing after full profit and recognizing when it’s time to walk away with what the market gives you.
This week was a classic case of that. Keep your position sizes tight, your exits realistic and your ego out of the way. That’s how you stay in the game when volatility is running the show.
