No. I’ll see what happens this week, react, and make money. I added to my long position today. I didn’t post yesterday due to the happenings of Tropical Dud, Fay. I sold MATK yesterday with a loss of a few %. I did this as shot to buy a firework related play and its a [...]

I was early with the short call last week, because today folks - its here. This is what I was trying to short for. However, now the market has puled back enough that I’m buying. I’ve bought the indexes this morning. You know ABC, from Glengary Glen Ross? Always Be Closing? I’m AFE. Always Fu$kn [...]

About time! However, the risk/reward was crappy and the gain matched that. Today the NDX gained .70% and the RUT did .26% whoooopeeeeeee. Overall I lost money this week attempting to short the trend. I said buy weakness and that is what I did today at the close. I’m now long the NDX and RUT [...]

I sold my TWM this morning for about 1% loss. I’m getting fed up with the short trade here. Maybe its a sign of a couple of things. I may cover the index funds as well, but we’ll see.

It may bite me in the ass, but I’m waiting to get long. Till Friday to see if either tomorrow or Friday provides a down day that will make my shorts profitable. I’m bullish intermediate term, so I’m playing a high risk, arguably, low reward trade here. However, I still have confidence that it will [...]

Market is moving my way again - down. I added to shorts this morning in the index funds, bringing my “medium” position up to “heavy.” However, I did not purchase more ETF’s due to me being away from the computer playing Wii with my son. I do have the TWM position already from yesterday. I [...]

It wasn’t a good trade, but it was a nice profit. EFU is breaking out and I sold into the breakout like a shmuck. I think its going a lot higher, but I have the patience of a hamster on viagra. I may buy it back. However, I’m still holding my watchlist picks of HOGS, [...]

I’ve been saying it for days now, that I want to buy weakness in the market for a long trade and therefore I went short with expectations of weakness to happen. That started to happen today. The RUT finished down .81% or 1.6% if your a double head. The NDX finished flat - booo.
Things that [...]

I mentioned yesterday that I went short with a “medium” position. This morning I’ve added to the index funds in the RUT only. I also bought TWM and EFU (2x inverse MSCI etf). The EFU is a play on the strengthening dollar. If the US dollar strengthens, the emerging markets will go down. The weak [...]

Well the indexes continued to move higher and significantly so today for my two favorites - the NDX and RUT. 1.5% for NDX and 4.5% for the RUT. The RUT / small caps continue to exhibit strength over other indexes. I didn’t participate in it though today because I thought we might selloff. Wrong.
The things [...]

This chart was posted yesterday after the big DAILY down move in the market.

Good call?

What worked:
Amazing market [...]

I went heavy long the leveraged index funds yesterday and I’m out this morning with 4.6% in the RUT and 2.6% in the NDX. I also sold my QLD and UWM for around 1.5% and 2% respectively (because I was heavy long in those yesterday with the hit of yesterday they are not up as [...]

I decided at the close today how can I complain about getting more than 7% in the NDX/QLD and 5% in the RUT/UWM.
Not only that, but finally SNTS took off today. I’ve bitched about being on board PWAV and then not being in it RIGHT before the break. This time I didn’t jump off the [...]

I laid out my trading plan last night and even last Friday. So far it was right on the money. Minor selloff into Fed meeting and now a rally post Fed. Ben Bernanke must be a fan of the Olympics because the market is rallying right into the torch ceremony. I kid. I joke. I [...]

I moved some money to an index long position. Its a very very lite position.
I’ve already bitched about PWAV breaking out and how I called it and traded it, but didn’t stay in long enough for it to materialize. So this time I’m going to post about some other stocks that may breakout or continue [...]
