This week has been a good week up to now:  I executed my new strategy:  1) When you see a major spike or dip post earnings AH, go the reverse and sell PH  My argument is that it takes an overnight to subdue to shock so you are in to capture to 1-2%.  This worked for every stock I've tested it on:  1) Shopify  2) Starbucks  3) Apache  4) Microsoft  5) Netflix  - All of which worked excellently.

That said, unless you have a high downpayment (20-30%), paying some to top off your rental income is highly possible. Stocks & ETFs Fortunately and unfortunately, this is the most volatile time but also the most exciting time. There is a lot to gain, and also a lot to lose. I've lost the most he...
