I’ve had two goes at doing webinars this week, 3 actually, and they have all been jinxed in some ways. No sound, no recording or my computer didn’t work properly.
But as each of these hiccups has occurred it reminded me that stuff just happens in markets – things you weren’t expecting or trades that go awry.
It also highlights the folly of big predictions – but that is not the point of this presentation. Rather I would ask you to view this as the some guide posts to the outlook in the year ahead. A year when the transition to a low volatility environment will either prove to be lasting or ephemeral.
My money is on the later which should throw up a large number of trading opportunities.
If you have any thoughts or queries please feel free to comment or write contact me through the site.
Happy Trading
