August feels like a long runway—but Q4 volatility can arrive fast and break weak systems. Late-year catalysts (earnings, elections, rate changes) don’t wait for you to “get ready.”

Your August Checklist

  1. Backtest in high-volatility periods.If your system breaks in late 2023 replay, fix it now.

  2. Build a reaction framework.What will you do when volatility spikes? Don’t improvise.

  3. Review your capital allocation.Are you scaled for quiet markets but exposed to chaos?

Get Ahead, Stay Ahead

August isn’t quiet for the prepared—it’s foundational.Let us help you recalibrate your system for what’s coming next.
