Check it out to get started today.  Trading online When Kira first started trading, she had to sit across the desk from a broker who took trades on her behalf.  When online trading became all the rage, trading changed drastically.  All of a sudden, there were so many more traders with sophisticated thought processes and strategies.  The moves in the market became faster and much more violent.  Where you used to trade in quarters, you now trade in pennies. And the changes keep coming, which is perhaps the reason Kira describes her trading style as “flexible”.  She has admittedly had to completely adjust her methods multiple times, based on the market’s ever-changing conditions. Success in the markets Kira believes that in order to have success in the markets you must first have confidence in your system. You have to understand sizing. And, most importantly, you must also exercise great risk control. It’s critical for long-term success to learn to size correctly and manage your risk well, so that if you are wrong on a trade, you are able to take the loss and move on.  No one is right all the time, so you must prepare for those times in advance.    Trading in a down cycle The market has been very challenging this year, but you can still trade well in a down cycle, according to Kira Turner.  Last year, the market just kept going up and up and up.  If you had a bad trade or two, you could save yourself by simply buying more and holding on for the ride. In 2022, we haven’t been so lucky.  Kira has stopped holding as many positions, has reverted to more day trading, and is being more discriminate about which trades she’s willing to short.
