Did you miss the rally after the BREXIT event?

Did you miss the market rally after the BREXIT event? Feeling sorry that you missed the bus? Well, don’t. Markets throw us opportunities every now and then. I know a couple of friends who went long at 7940 on June futures on the BREXIT day. They trade using charts. And then there are a few others who went long at 8120. They trade using a stop and reverse system. If you really feel, you missed the rally start reading the charts. There are lot of videos and books to help you learn technical analysis. Else, follow a stop and reverse system and stick to it no matter what your judgment is about the markets.
