Dear Anil,
I'm mainly exploring ways to safeguard against unexpected high volatility moves - for instance demonetization / US elections, so that the severe drawdowns can be avoided.
I remember you saying that you only trade the long side. Was just wondering - during the onset of bear markets - eg. sep/oct to jan, do you close all positions and turn intraday trader. Or do you bear the frequent hits to SL (quite demoralizing though!
)
Also, during known high volatility events - eg. budget / stock specific results / US elections / Brexit etc., do you exit positions or hedge them in any way (say buy puts).
Thank you.
