No one is trying beforehand. Well, no one successful. I know a bunch people who were flat stocks in November. And more who were in low vol. The...
This thread called the top pretty damn well. Nice job @vincentnyc. He called it in January, real time as the first post in this thread. 8% from...
3rd swing below the 50sma. That was the signal - it happened on Thursday. I don't know that I'd call it obvious, but the indexes certainly aren't...
I've both made and lost money on it. The margin requirements make it prohibitive though. I don't like to take a position on it with less than $1M...
The important part is to note that it's back in a trading range - not the double top./bottom thing. You can get in if you like, but it's still in...

How many people had negative oil on their bingo card? Anything can happen. I wouldn’t be surprised to see oil go to 200, or copper to 10. That...
Maybe. Not now though. Relative all time lows just printed. So there’s that. It can’t rally without changing that first. I suppose the odd person...
Until CL gets above 76, I only see supply and would expect to get whipped around. Not fun.
October? Try August 2020. You could have bought anything in the universe then and its value would have increased. Anything. that is, except for...
price is the only thing that pays.
Not inflationists
Choosing a trading strategy for tax reasons seldom works out. Paying taxes means you made money. Enjoy it. It’s better than the alternative.
Did Powell top tick inflation? Impressive. I trust bond prices, not narratives. 30 yr yields range-bound at best. TIP/IEF ratio in a downtrend.
Not too many bucking the market- the big ones that stand out to me are: building materials(eg BLDR,MLM), homebuilders(LEN,TOL,SKY), semis...
