How to Trade During Market Selloffs and the Power of Support

The one key element for traders looking to "buy the dip" is support. Support levels are powerful because this is the level where we see buying interest due to previous buying, trend lines or moving averages.

Even during market selloffs where the drop seems to have no floor, support can have a powerful impact. Let's study these momentum stocks during the current selloff. Notice that all of these bounced at previous lows or key moving averages.

Remember, we are always trying to make the complex simple, and nothing is simpler than buying at support levels.

SPY bounces off October '14 low
