I’m trying to learn about trading and have been following you for a couple of weeks. Can you tell me why you decided to short MZZ instead of going long? Is it fundamental or technical and what specifically?
Well the pricing on these 2x etfs are really shitty and it ends up being more beneficial % gain wise to short the short version of the pair (most of the time) rather than buy the long version.
It was a technical trade. I covered with a little bit of a gain and I’m looking to short QID as well.
