Yeah yeah, I get it. 2014-2017 is where I learned my "craft". Then 2018 hit and I got blindsided. "Thunderstruck", if you will. And the song encapsulates it well.
The very beginning of the song is 2017. Once they start breaking bow strings, It's Powell and Trump at the helm. Vol ensues.
Your learning has missing curriculum... Vol (volatility) exists at all times.
Oh yea, I forgot...you don't trade the front month: it's your edge. Good luck with that.
