Trading Midterm Elections: What 40 Years of Experience Has Taught Me
Christopher Brecher |Simpler Trading

For over four decades, I’ve traded through every type of market — bull markets, crashes, geopolitical shocks, and election cycles. One of the most misunderstood opportunities comes during U.S. midterm election years. In this 30-minute session, I’ll break down how I approach trading midterms using real historical data and practical setups — not opinions or headlines.

We’ll cover:

• What typically happens to the S&P 500 before and after midterm elections

• The impact of “power shifts” (red to blue, blue to red) on market behavior

• How sentiment and positioning create tradeable opportunities

• My step-by-step playbook for identifying high-probability setups

• When to lean aggressive — and when to stay patient

This is not a political discussion — it’s a trader’s framework built on decades of experience and pattern recognition. If you’re looking for a structured way to navigate election-driven volatility, this session will give you a clear edge.
