Personally, I LOVE volatility.

Volatility creates opportunity.

That is the secret — people are using volatility to scare you.

People who do not like volatility are telling you that they do not know how to trade.

When prices are too high, you sell, when too low you buy, duh.

So you look for when prices shoot up and then hit the wall. The price will trace out for you where the resistance is after a few days or a week or so. Just be patient and watch until the price pattern reveals where the buyers and sellers are.

You can also trade spikes. If the spike goes too far, you act.
