Traders - Must Follow X Accounts

These accounts are great for breaking news

So, yesterday was headline city again…

One bullish headline → aggressive rally on already-strong equities.

Then… another headline hit.

Gains gone. Anyone who bought the first news? Caught offside.

We dipped. Then ripped.

Finally this after the bell…

A proper rollercoaster!

X FOLLOWS

I know I sound like a broken record, but in this kind of environment, you must use a hard stop.

Mental stops won’t do sh*t when a comment catches you offside, before you can react, you’ll be down 5R.

Make it a habit… I want you liquid for the next bull run!

Now, talking of news… even if you’re not a “news trader”, I still think tracking how the market responds to headlines gives you a massive clue about sentiment.

So if you’re on X (Twitter), here are a few great follows for real-time news flow:

But having a few trusted sources to scan how the market reacts?

Handy.
