📰 Should the markets go really nuts based on the big news, or nah…
In typical election-year style, market sentiment is swinging like a pendulum caught in a hurricane. With Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump in a nail-biter, traders are primed for potential chaos.
But here’s the kicker: historically, election outcomes don’t rock markets as much as we think—only a one-party sweep has shown any real impact, and even that can be modest. So unless this election produces a “power-sweep” outcome, the market might stay cool, with sectors, not the market as a whole, feeling the heat depending on who wins.
Energy companies, tariffs, and corporate taxes will face directional winds from policy decisions, but the S&P’s real focus remains on inflation, interest rates, and corporate earnings.
Pro tip: tune out the hype, hold your stops tight, and watch for sector plays—renewables, oil, or even consumer goods could see interesting moves based on who gets the keys to the Oval Office. The countdown’s on, but it’s the economy, not the election, that usually drives the market bus. For the full rundown, read here.

Trading Tip For Aspiring Speed Traders
Want to try scalping but nervous about the speed? Here’s a controlled, strategic way to dip your toes: start with a one-minute chart using the VWAP and Bollinger Bands. This combination helps spot small, high-probability price swings and provides guidance on quick entries and exits. Here’s the plan:
1. Use VWAP as a Compass: If the price is above VWAP, focus on buying (expecting a bounce); below it, lean toward selling. VWAP acts as a dynamic support or resistance level, guiding your trade direction.
2. Spot Entry with Bollinger Bands: Watch for price touches at the upper or lower bands. If a candle moves outside a band, it often hints at a minor reversal—prime time to jump in for a quick, small gain.
3. Leverage and Limits: Stick to low leverage, as scalping is about consistent, small wins, not one big jackpot. Place tight stop-loss orders just outside the bands to protect yourself.
4. Exit Efficiently: Aim to exit at the opposite band or the VWAP line, whichever is closer.
Bonus Tip: Practice in a competition setting (like BullRush) to hone your timing and mental resilience. Scalp like a pro—focused, strategic, and ready for swift action!
