Gotta love ZERO Risk Short SP 500 = $$$$

  1. One thing that still sticks out from last fall...On Nov 2 or so we tagged 2110 in one of those late day squeezes (felt almost identical to today's action) and it was a foregone conclusion that we were just going to take out 2135...heck it was merely 25 points away...then that rolling chop sideways carried out the next 7 weeks until it broke...Nonetheless, all pullbacks were bought with reckless abandon and some of the biggest squeezes I've seen took place during those 6-7 weeks...

    Basically whatever level we think it will reject, it's probably going to stop short of OR simply gap thru it on some CB inspired "whatever it takes" meme.

    Bought more TVIX at $6.60 and UVXY at $29.30


    Now if volatility spikes, which it will I can stay relaxed...

    Thank you for this...makes sense now. You are looking for a candlestick.

    To me, price and level are the same thing.

    Bought DUST at $3.38

    Just for fun....

    Figure I'll sell it for a clean 25% gain once gold drops on protit taking
