We just had our Active Traders Club Gathering yesterday where the theme was Risk. Top traders shared on their assessment to current markets’ risk, introduction of a market timing indicator, doing proper risk analysis and how to use stop-loss effectively.

This time round, we have invited a special guest speaker, Alvin Li, who is a derivatives expert from Hong Kong.

Our guest speaker of the night, Alvin Li, gave his insights on How to capitalise on Risk, using derivatives such as Daily Leverage Certificate(DLC). We also previously wrote a simple quick-read article which you should read, on how DLCs actually work.

We also had our veteran community member and remisier, Ong Bee Heng sharing his views on risk management when it comes to trading as shown in the picture above.

Next, we had the Winner of The 2018 SGX Bull Charge Stock Challenge, Aaron Sim of the popular blog TheBearProwl, giving a presentation on Global Macro Outlook for 2019 and using the CBOE Volatility Index (^VIX) as an indicator to forecast trends, primarily the S&P 500 Index.

Last but not the least, we had an open panel discussion for the attendees to ask questions about trading risk management and hedging techniques from top traders themselves.

Thanks to everyone who came down for this event. Your support meant a lot to us.
