In my experience, avoiding trades ahead of all signficant news events would mean all too often missing out on the main intraday swing.

In my limited experience, I've found everyday news not to be a concern...even helpful to keep the market swinging nicely...for the most part, the super crazy volatility occurs only with NFP and FOMC (with exceptions, of course). The other news is manageable, IMHO.

That's not neccessary. Don't get scared or fear-mongered.
NFP may be an exception.

If you taken a bigger timeframe and a larger stop,
you can trade across them.
5m or 15m is not appropriate.

Re: Reading Charts in Real Time
Three "service" levels have been dealt with.
They were all clearly visible on the chart before.

These situations are far more dangerous than "news" .

Re: Reading Charts in Real Time
Trading the correction is still risky.
Short remains the better choice.
