Strategy to Trading the IBEX35 Index

IBEX35 tracks the top 35 Spanish companies by market value. Over time, it climbs but swings more than others. Look at EURO STOXX or DAX 30 - they shift less. This index sees bigger ups and downs in its path.

Over a long time, this index will usually move up, so you should favor buying and keep buying as the stock index moves higher.

A sound strategy for stock indices involves consistently buying on market dips: however, traders engaging with this index must anticipate significantly broader and more erratic price movements.

During Economic SlowDown & Recession

In times of economic downturn and recession, companies often report lower revenues, reduced profits, and diminished growth prospects. This situation prompts investors to sell shares of companies with decreasing profits, leading to a decline in stock indices tied to these stocks.

In these market hours, trends often go down. Adjust your stock index strategy to match the falling direction you trade.

Note: The main trend often heads up. But traders must watch daily market swings. Sometimes the stock index stays in a tight range or pulls back. Pullbacks can get big too. So time your entry points with care using this index trading strategy. At the same time, follow good money management rules to handle sudden market moves.
