Tea,
Any daytrader who claim that they sucessfully daytrade the Post-fed volatility raises serious questions about their credibility. Last Fed meeting was one exception, where the market went staight up, without much whipsaw. Most other fed meetings are not playable. Like Skunk said, before you can click the mouse, the market races away 3-4 points and by the time you realize you are on the wrong side and click the mouse again, you lose another 3-4 points. There are 200+ trading days in a year. Why waste your money in this silliness when the big progams are fighting it out. Only way to play it is position a day or two ahead of time and have wide stops. I had a long going from yesterday from SPX 1530 with a stop at 1522. So i survived.
Got that so right....
