Some others that might be worth keeping on the radar are U.S.Steel, Nucor,and Steel Dynamics. Below are some of their charts. One way to limit potential losses if the market does take another nose dive, is to use the option market. It can give you time and limit your loses. Options on the Basic Materials ETF XLB is also an idea that could work.
