In times of uncertainty, there is bound to be large amounts of volatility and many conflicting headlines will hit the newswires. In this age of social media and fake news, be sure to have credible news sources that you can rely on. It is crucial not to..
blindly react to price action and give in to #FOMO (Fear of Missing Out).
