  1. heck if you guys are really conservative you could do it like this, although you might be waiting for a while for your first entry to get filled at $129.30.

    And as soon as price goes above that previous swing high of $137, you'd have to redraw the magic fibonacci lines, so you might not ever get a fill. But this is a much more conservative way to do it.

  2. All of these should work because fibs have magic powers and "price is drawn to them" right? [​IMG]

  5. I should be trading SSO. It's cheaper ($50s vs $130s) and double weighted, so I'd be getting 4x the movement with the same dollar amount invested. But I worry a little about the decay over time.

  6. For example, my 200 shares of SPY today cost $26,844.

    For the same amount of money, I could've gotten around 480 shares of SSO.

    More than double the shares * double weighted = 4x movement.

  7. Maybe as price gets closer to my target I will sell 2 covered 137 June covered calls.

    I wish SPY options were priced higher.

    But at any rate, that might bring in an additional $200-400.

  10. Look at this up day! Up about .65 cents total on the position so far which is like $520.

    Target profit is currently around $137 which will put the profit at around $2,720 with the current amount of shares.

    I should be using UPRO.
