So, I got a notification on how the market (stock) is currently volatile. I opened the news and learnt a few things about volatility and how to take advantage of it.
What does volatility mean?
You can’t make money in financial markets without prices moving. The degree to which prices rise and fall is called the market’s volatility index. Price volatility offers a way to measure the range of potential returns when talking about a security or market index. Most of the time, the riskier the security is, the higher its volatility will be. In other words, if the stock market is rising and falling significantly over time, it would be called a volatile market.
