Volatility

Basics

Qué significa

How much and how fast an asset price swings. High volatility means large price moves in short periods; low volatility means calm, small moves.

Ejemplo

A stock that moves between $98 and $102 over a month is low volatility. A crypto token that swings from $0.50 to $1.20 in a day is high volatility.

Error común de principiantes

Beginners chase high volatility for big wins but forget it works both ways -- the same instrument that doubled in a day can drop 60% the next.
