Managing risk on higher beta stocks

I primarily use smaller position sizes for higher beta plays. It allows for a bit more wiggle room without blowing up the account if things go south quickly, especially on those whipsaw days. Tighter stops are a given, but position sizing is key.

For me, it's a combination, but I lean heavily on defining daily ranges and trading within those. If the range breaks, I'm usually out. The market can be irrational, but price action within a defined range often offers clear entry/exit points for swing trades on volatile names.
