¿Opiniones sobre la gestión del riesgo en futuros overnight?

Traducido automáticamente del original · Leer el original (English)

He estado intentando entender cómo mantener posiciones de futuros overnight, específicamente en cosas como $ES o $NQ. Los gaps pueden ser brutales, e incluso con stops, a veces el mercado simplemente los supera antes de que puedas reaccionar. Para aquellos de ustedes que regularmente mantienen posiciones overnight, ¿cuál es su estrategia principal para gestionar ese riesgo de gap? ¿Simplemente usan stops más amplios y aceptan el calor potencial, o hay alguna técnica específica o ajuste en el tamaño de la posición que emplean para mitigar el daño si un movimiento va en su contra al principio de la sesión asiática?

Many successful overnight holders actually scale out of a portion of their position before the close to reduce risk, especially heading into potential news events. Have you tried that approach?

For $ES or $NQ, holding overnight is basically just gambling on the news flow, unless you're hedging something. The overnight session is thin; stops get hunted easily and the gaps are a feature, not a bug. If you're consistently getting blown out by gaps, maybe reconsider your overnight strategy altogether.

Yeah, those overnight gaps can definitely be a killer. I've found that trying to actively manage the gap itself is a losing battle. My approach has shifted more towards sizing down my overnight positions significantly and focusing on the higher timeframes for the trade thesis, rather than trying to scalp every movement. What kind of timeframe are you usually trading on when you hold overnight?
