I am watching the banking and tech sectors and expect the market to be jumpy, no matter who wins the election. Elections often bring uncertainty, so we may see some confusion and volatility as investors react. Volatility means opportunity to me. It is wise to remain calm and focused.

By remaining patient and proactive are important attrubutes during this period.

The election day is almost here. I’m watching sectors like health care, energy, and tech for any big policy impacts. This week and next, I’ll be tracking market sentiment and early voting trends. I expect some market swings either way, so I’m keeping my portfolio ready and staying flexible as results roll in

I am not betting on who will win in the election but still need to prepare a few things: 1) I am mentally prepared for a wild ride in volatility in certain stocks. If Trump wins, the stocks related to him will soar (e.g. DJT). On the other hand, if Harris becomes the next President, stocks that benefit from her policy will rocket (e.g. FSLR). 2) There are many who will post or share info about a stock. It is important to DYODD by having a balanced view (read both the positive and negative sides) and learn to avoid negatively biased comments that fuse FUD. Stay calm and don't overreact like panic sell (fear) or FOMO buy (greed). 2) It is a golden opportunity for swing traders and short sellers. However I am not doing either especially leveraging because the risk is too much for me. 3) I prefer to buy puts/calls because when the contract expires, you will only lose the premium. I buy puts to protect my lower limit and buy calls to profit if the share price soars. But for selling options, make sure you know what you are doing and not blindly follow the mass as the loss can be unlimited. 4) As a retail investor that takes a long position, my portfolio is prepared for short term volatility risk. One way is to buy ETFs like the S&P500 to diversify which may be better than investing in a single stock. The analogy is not to put all eggs in one basket. Bottom line Just like the previous election, the storm will settle down and the fundamentals will take over. I'm looking forward to the degree of Fed rate cut in December, how Elon Musk will cut government spending if Trump wins the election and the possibility of another US government shutdown if the Democrats and Republicans disagree in spending policy.
The market climbed to start the month of November despite a shockingly light non-farm labor number- the U.S. added just 12,000 jobs in the past month, 100k lower than estimated. However, the unemployment rate did not rise, and the report mentioned the disruptions caused by hurricanes and strikes as one-time events.

Good morning, traders. Happy Friday, November 1st. The market climbed despite a shockingly light non-farm labor number- the U.S. added just 12,000 jobs in the past month, 100k lower than estimated. However, the unemployment rate did not rise, and the report mentioned the disruptions caused by hurricanes and strikes as one-time events.

On October 30, I executed a DJT vertical spread with a strike range of $80 to $90, set to expire on November 8. This trade was carefully timed, leveraging both high implied volatility (IV) and the benefits of time decay, while based on an objective analysis of the company’s fundamentals and market sentiment. The Trade Setup I sold 9 units of DJT call spreads, securing a total premium of $639. After accounting for p...

You’ve got a week to go. As unlikely as it is to lose money on this spread on paper, it’s hard to say what would happen in the event of a trump electoral victory

Thank you for your response! I completely agree that there are always uncertainties, especially with an event as unpredictable as an election. In my view, DJT’s recent surge is largely a result of speculative buying, fueled by the connection to Trump and the anticipation around his potential victory. The stock has been rallying for some time as investors and speculators bet on a positive outcome for Trump, hoping that his association with the company would boost its value. However, what we've seen in the past few days—a slight pullback—suggests that some of the "smart money" is already starting to exit, likely taking profits ahead of the election’s outcome. From my perspective, this run-up is typical speculative behavior in anticipation of a high-stakes event. Experienced traders often capitalize on such hype, expecting that once the election results are out and the dust settles, the stock may lose its speculative appeal. If Trump wins, it’s possible the stock could spike in the short term. However, once the excitement fades, the stock could experience a correction, as the speculative premium dissipates. For me, the current action in DJT feels like a race to lock in profits while there’s still hype, as the uncertainty of the election adds to the volatility. This approach is based purely on market dynamics and doesn’t imply any political stance—I'm just observing the speculative nature of the trade and acting accordingly. Of course, this is just my perspective, and there's always a chance I could be wrong. In any case, it’s a calculated risk, and I’ll be watching the market closely as we approach November 8. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts!
