  2. Man, this was the golden post.

    As soon as you made it, the market started tanking.......

  3. Yea I'm liking the price action. There's virtually no bid for the market, but we'll see how we plays it into the close.

    I wouldn't hold FAZ overnight tho.....the market likes to test the top just as much as it likes testing bottoms. I also don't see any bad news on the horizon for an excuse to sell.

  4. Hey guys,

    In the interest of disclosure I sold out. Made some nice coin. I think the inverse funds will do well again tomorrow, but it was debatable about waiting around, so I bolted. Hope ya'll made money.

  5. Yeah, this is the great thing about the 3x'ers.

    4-6%ers are available just about any day you look at it.

  6. I got out at 8.17, waited for the last minute, but the ups and downs were a good 20 cents, so I took it on the high of the 20 cents bounces, though it looks like I shoulda waited I am looking at 8.24 now.... lol

    I am going to watch the AH market closely and the morning bell closely too. I think this is going to gap up

  7. Yeah, that close is about as clear as mud.

    Glad I sold out for 5%.

  8. Amen! FAZ closed green, SP500 closed red; So far it looks good.

    So I'm holding it overnight. Sadly my trading platform does not support extended hours :-(

  9. if your trading platform doesn't, but you still want to see the play on a stock, check out google finance. It shows the AH market as an option.

  10. Yeah, I do a quick scan for extended hours activities in the morning on Google finance.

    FAZ/FAS play is lot easier if you have extended hour access. Guess I'm going to close my existing Sogo account and move to IB.
