    strategy notes for tue 2/22:

    + sell all up gaps premkt if they start dropping, to book profits

    + daytrade size, 400-1k shares

    + uvxy/sqqq if selloff, soxl/tqqq if bounce

    I would not be buying in any of those positions now. Especially after tomorrow's gap down.
    If you bought last week then great start to unwind the positions but to buy these at an 8% 10% and 15% gap up tomorrow is no good.

    Futs bouncing grrr hope it stays red til 7, will likely sell all inverses then if they keep dropping; will flip to SOXL premkt if trend continues.


    Likely headfake if green open, flip back red @10 or later

  8. Ken did you get any sleep? You amped to bank the gap? Its 3:00 AM here, spent the day on a private elk and chukker ranch. Only binoculars, no hunting and now the five Red Bulls won’t let me sleep.


    The 3x Defense and 3x Banks(DPTS, FAS, and BGNU) once the melt stops. Mexico, Saudi and India holding well.
