I'm curious abou this, too. I think this question is aimed at people that did not check "mark to market" on their tax forms.
I was just paper trading today (I'm on PTO all week from my job). Take a look at my pic. At the first arrow, I would have bought. It was a...
I didn't even know that about the dividends. Good thing I didn't buy it yesterday, then.
Can you explain how that would work? I thought the momentum always = 2x as volatile as the Dow.
$200,000+? I've paid about $14.10 this year in comissions. I've only made one round trip so far (but paper traded like a mofo).
DDM is a 2x long Dow index. In other words, if the Dow goes up 2%, DDM goes up 4%. If the Dow goes down 2%, DDM goes down 4%. So what...

Can you own SPY and SSO at the same time? I mean they're both kinda the same thing... If you buy SPY and sell it at a loss, and then buy SSO...
Not to be a noob, but where can I get more info on PPI and CPI? I keep hearing about them.
I hadn't considered that. Thanks. I would assume that lower volume would mean the gap is more likely to close, and higher volume would mean...
I'm a noob on gaps, and I found this thread by searching. XOM has not closed a gap for the last 5 days. It gaps up and goes higher, except for...
Bump (unless I missed it in one of the other double weight ETF threads).
