If that isn’t a reason, not to trade equities I don’t know what is. Say you had BIDU on short, or GOOG on long…you will wake up tomorrow, pissed off. Maybe. Or maybe the market will take both of them higher. Or lower. It’s the lessons in causality, that most retail, do not observe. They get burnt because of it.
Due to this, I haven’t traded a single issue, since May of 2009. Except TTEK. I must say, its a lot less annoying, being an active bond/oil/gold/index/volatility trader than it is equity trader.
Goodnight!
