gold 2 GOLD FUTURES (CONTINUOUS: CURRENT CONTRACT IN FRONT) COMEX:GC1! ScottBogatin 11.19.20 Gold I commit a lot of time to gold and oil markets because I have a special interest in those markets. But even your favorite markets have times whether or not easily tradable. The tools that I use to trade our fantastic from my perspective having spent many years finding the tools that were useful for me. However, the ease of trading a market changes depending on the volatility of the market... regardless how much I like the tools that I use. Volatility changes in the market are much more elusive for traders, and your indicators become more unreliable in certain markets and this can lead to counterproductive and costly trading decisions. No matter how much you like your trading tools it is to your advantage to recognizing the context of the market i.e. volatility changes so that you can avoid markets that are going to lose your money and stretch out regardless of how much you like your trading tools. One alternative is to avoid your favorite markets when you can recognize the type of market they have become and realize that your tools are less reliable because of other qualities of that market. If you know how to spot volatility in other markets, then you have found the market that will be easier to trade using the tools that you like to use. In a symbolic sense, you only need one or two markets to trade to make money in the markets which means you want to have an awareness of a few markets that are unrelated, and you will need a way of following those markets, perhaps with alerts... and this will take some effort on your part. But you can compensate by avoiding your favorite markets whether contracted and require an enormous amount of energy to trade. It gets very difficult to trade when you're trying to draw blood from a stone. .
