Strategist says he's 'bullish but nervous' about markets

The Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) and S&P 500 (^GSPC) pulled back from their all-time highs on Wednesday. It's another example of the volatility investors have seen in September. Looking ahead, OptionsPlay Senior Options Strategist Brian Overby is "bullish but nervous" about the markets. He points to what happened after the Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 50 basis points. Stocks closed lower that day, only to soar the next day. Overby thinks what happened was investor focus shifted from inflation to jobs, so "as long as the economy feels we're doing OK on the job front, then the market decides that it wants to set new highs." He cautions, though, "that there is so much volatility in the marketplace, it's kind of hard to decide exactly where the market wants to go," using the CBOE Volatility Index's (^VIX) wild fluctuations as an example of the market's uncertainty. Watch the video above to hear Overby explain more about VIX seasonality. He also discusses how to play DR Horton (DHI) using options right now.

I’m convinced that investing significantly in a good stock before it goes ''big'' is more important than buying the dip, however picking the right company lies the difficult task. My question is, what are the best ways to accrue profits both in a bull and bear market?
