WENT 3X INVERSE PORTNOY; I’M MADE FROM CHAMPION STOCK

I started off the day completely bogged down in longs. Smartly, I started to scale out with losses. The market was down 600, so I doubled down on SOXL, which was down 10%, and sold it into a rip for a 1.7% loss. As I continued to dump stocks and take my lumps, I grabbed my balls and positioned into this bitch sideways and short — long FAZ, SOXS.

Markets ended down 1,000, making my moves more than golden, but what legends are made from.

As markets started to dump out virus plays started to lift in earnest. I booked a 9.9% intra-day rip in APT and noticed, via my newswire, governments started to make masks compulsory. This got me thinking to throw in all available funds into makers of N-95 masks and I’m not talking MMM.

I got in and then saw those fuckers sprint the fuck higher. At the end of the day, the harmony of my trading ended up to be 3x inverse Portnoy — who got bogged the fuck out bagholding 40,000 shares of BA today for a cool -$450k.

This is a brutal business, but only the lion shall prevail. Davey Zebra should stick to betting on foolsball games and leave the arena of champions to men of a higher quality.

    Dow down 4.44%.

    4 is a very unlucky number to the Chinese.

    S&P500 and Nasdaq both dropped by exactly 4.41%….odd.

    I’m switching out from GOLD EAGLES to PRE 1933 GOLD you know why? Because the government will sweep in and take everything they can. THINK CYPRESS 2013 bail-ins that’s the template for desperate governments.

      1. Look up how many people actually had their gold confiscated. it was mobsters and some shady eastern european clowns who tried to sell their hoards of gold (millions at todays spot price) even after the government said not to do that. one guy was literally told by his bank not to do it and he demanded they give it to him anyways… he could have kept the bars in his safety deposit box and waited a few years when the feds werent sniffing around NYC for these idiots.

      FDR did not send gold sniffing dogs into american homes to confiscate gold coins.

      2. pre 1933 gold willcost you 30% above spot and you wont be able to sell it for even spot. someone in my tribe WILL fuck you. “I’d tell you im definitely interested!! what a beautiful coin” then id acid test that shit right in front of you… bringing the value of your double eagle right back down to earth… literally. then youd have no choice but to sell it to me for MY price… 3.5% below spot. if you gave me any shit… Id tell you good luck… its ruined… you did an acid test.

      3. did i mention the government never sent gold sniffing dogs after people?

      4. did i mention there was no apmex or ebay in 1933? there are exponentially larger amounts of people holding gold these days. America is not gonna confiscate all that wealth. if anything govt might realize our skeptical 1776 dont tread on me attitude may have just saved their stupid asses and we can switch over to a gold standard. America is the home of the gold and silver bugs. nobody anywhere is cashing out their 401ks for rolls of gold eagles and pounds of mercury dimes

      5. did i mention i sold all my stocks in 2018 when the republicans cut taxes for rich fucks DURING a bull market… THE sell signal of ALL sell signals… fuck what that atomic bomb avatar clown says? (Mr. Bruce? wanna run a backtest and see what happens if you move into gold and long bonds after every republican tax cut DURING a bull market, bitch? you got microsoft excel on your windows XP machine) past two years ive been filling up shoeboxes with RCM 10 oz bars and hiding rolls of half dollars around my house.

      6. Heckler is right. like i said. govt aint going to go hunting for 1 ounce coins and bars in america risking getting blown away by a Mossberg 500. buy credit suisse bars.

      7. if you cant afford one ounce bars… no worries… i too bought weed 1 gram at a time once upon a time my man. 20 franc. Belgian/French/Swiss/Italian… it was the Euro before the Euro. The true world currency standard. they are .1867 ounces each. they are the closest coins you can buy to spot price, all other gold coins (1933 stuff) are not for trading they are for your grandchildren. I keep it austro hungarian. dont ask me why. if you cant afford that… fuck… buy UGLD? still no? sell weed bro.

      8. if you think gold price is gonna double… buy UGLD. if you think the world is gonna end… franklin halves, walking liberty halves, $100 face value bags of mercury dimes. also make friends with showtime. if the shit hits the fan and the system collapses… your one ounce of gold will be worth $150,000. Nobody is going to have change for that. The few people who will might as well just shoot you dead and take your coin. You want mercury dimes to pay your rent and half dollars to pay off knife wielding zombie people.

      the end.

      your welcome.

          the world has been ending since Jesus walked the earth. maybe hes right… but fuck its been a slow process.

          its more likely the trend in gold from 1971 to here accelerates.

          roman debasement of silver hyper accelerated at one point, after they decided the germanic tribes across tha danube would make for good immigrant workers and soldiers… and today there are an awful lot of Jose’s and Miguel’s in the marines these days shooting Arabs for and basically doing all the work for…

          wait for it…

          …the descendants of those original germanic tribes.

          buy gold and silver. If Odoacer is out there… you’ll be able to buy the gun, canned soup and a woman off of a redneck for 1 silver dime.

            peaches, why would you buy a 3x leveraged gold product to hold long term (ugld), when you can instead just buy 3 times as much gold (gld)? you realize these 3x leverage funds do not literally pay you three times …? i would understand it as a short term trade perhaps …

            um… long term… no.

            I bought UGLD in November. 40 shares under $130. lets say $130 because math is boring.

            (It is at 152 right now, hit 186 a few weeks ago and i dont think its too dumb to tihnk itll go back there and beyond. UGLD will trade at $200 eventually. the more we spend the more likely it is. Jerome Powell owns UGLD.

            limit sold 10 shares when they hit 20% higher price. should have sold more.

            the rest is STILL up 19%, and ive been buying more. I do plan on selling all this UGLD and actually picking up physical bars and silver bars to hide under my wifes collection of loose teas… i told my self i would have done that in february… but then coronavirus and greed showed up. i broke my own rule. UGLD is going up in value faster than the physical gold i own. im stuck. paralyzed by greed.

            i deserve to lose all the money i have floating around in the ether… maybe ill cash out and stop playing this TZA game, but im not convinced the world is actually ending. the stock market stayed open in 1931 so we should be fine.

            BUT this entire seeking alpha story about leveraged ETFs not working in the long term is stupid.

            when I first started this game i was 20. it was 2010. i backtested ticker symbols. and followed Fly’s risk on move like a parasite.

            33% TMF 66% TQQQ was my best strategy. rebalanced quarterly.

            i listened to all the old men who told me it was bound to blow up and i never had the balls to stay in even though anytime i jumped in it PRINTED.

            my cousin worked in PE and made almost half a million a year and he told me i was stupid for using so much leverage. i should have realized he never placed a single trade in his life and someone who works in fixed income shouldn’t be teaching kids levered 3 times over not to play with leverage.

            If you had invested in those 3 leveraged ETFs in 2010 and reblanced quarterly you would be up 1700%+ today.

            that same portfolio today would be UP even after all this march madness

            I dont have 6 figures yet because I didnt trust my instincts.

            10 years is long term enough. though no?

            the next bull market WILL make me a millionaire.

            ETF decay only happens to commodity ETFs, inverse ETFs, or ETFs that track the VIX thats tracking the options that are tracking the sp500.

            The more directional the underlying is, the less the ETF decay argument holds.

            If you think oil is going higher over a 52 week time frame, 3X oil ETF will still lose you money.

            stocks are up more than 80% of the time, and a steady uptrend for the past 40 years.

            gold has been in an uptrend since 1971 for a very simple reason. gold window was closed by nixon. money officially became nothing more than paper.

            now if gold hits $100k an ounce… Wall Street will be covered in blood and feces the way it should be…

            and whoever manages UGLD will steal your money

            but so will JPM.

            GLD only pays out in physical gold if you own 100,000 shares or more. not dollars. shares.

            think about it. the money management industry CAN’T buy TQQQ or SPXL in their funds.

            They have every incentive to convince the old farts that I’m a lunatic and TQQQ will blow up tomorrow.

            TQQQ and TMF. rebalance quarterly. do it with $1000 bucks and see what happens. selling TQQQ to buy TMF is hard when stocks are ripping higher… but its worth it when 2011 2015 and 2020 show up.

            i didnt believe it would work either. so i never went all in. all i got to do was double my net worth 3 times in 7 years.

            i think you are confusing vix products that have premium erosion of & 15% a year, and the oil ETFs like uso or uco, that people advise against holding as an investment. i trade UGLD, TQQQ, UDOW regularly. But for investments, and i do invest in indexes, i buy GLD, SPY, QQQ, VTI etc. And i am still curious as to the question of if you tracked the buy price of your UGLD from October to what it is now, against if you had bought 3x as much GLD that same day, if the 2 numbers would match.

            gold has gone up at the end of the year/beginning of the next year 5 or 6 years in a row at this point.

            its the REAL santa claus rally.

            holding GLD to make that trade instead of UGLD is a waste of money.

        Who is going to build all the TVA dams during lockdown though?

        Just pay all salaries for 6 months and let the rich youtube videos on how to code python.

        Anyone who is opposed to that most likely has no skills and has never had to get up during the winter and leave their beautiful wife’s hot young perky nipples in that warm bed so they can go outside and use their BIG BRAIN and SKILLS to make some entitled “job creator” money.

        My company makes a 600% return on my labor… can you tell?

            my hearts too big. watching unskilled trust fund babies destroy our economy while most of the brainwashed working class saves fiat money and continues to trust their government pisses me off.

            watching idiots with stockholm syndrome keep voting against their interests is even more aggravating

      im also stuck at my desk in brooklyn helping idiots find the “network and internet settings” tab on their laptops.

      and the streets outside are empty except for the occasional old scared italian man who isnt playing this trading account video game.

      theres refrigerated trucks at coney island hospital full of dead people who built this city and the president is insinuating people might not need the ventilators.

      they are dying watching the news and hearing that piece of shit tell them they’re crazy for needing so many ventilators.

      and we are arguing about whether Fly is stupid for jumping into FAZ.

        Yep. It’s not bothering me much, I’m retired and the markets and news are challenging. I love trading in turmoil.
        Plenty of senselessness too, among the electorate, who could fix most of this crap, but they either won’t or are too brainwashed/stupid to understand. I was pretty involved in that until about 3 months ago when I could no longer fight the good fight- I could no longer ignore the impossibility of the task. It was hard because I always thought the middle class was better than that. They would lead us because they had too, or the country would fail. Which it is.
        I’m happier, the coronacrisis saved me. Tumultuous markets took my mind off the disappointment of the death of American capitalism and democracy. Oligarchy sucks. I think much like Sanders now…what is the alternative? It doesn’t matter anymore. Hope is fading fast.
        The voters in this country really have no one to blame but themselves.

    RIO DE JANEIRO — As coronavirus cases and deaths mount in Brazil, President Jair Bolsonaro has remained defiant, the last notable holdout among major world leaders in denying the severity of the coronavirus.

    Brazilians, he declared last week, are uniquely suited to weather the pandemic because they can be dunked in raw sewage and “don’t catch a thing.”
    If pandemic ends in a month he will be considered a hero.

    India’s Modi could have said the same about its people, but he turned tail, lockeddowned entire country.

      To ice the cake, Kemp (R-GA) and DeSantis (R-FL) have just begun taking steps that the governors outside of the ex-Confederacy took weeks ago.

      I don’t know the exit poll data of FL but I know white seniors are 90% Republican in GA. So the upcoming slaughter will be extremely delicious.

      @ Narcyst

      How about the 12,500 from swine flu in the column for the the magically gifted biracial fuck.

      On average, 100,000 die every year from infections/mistakes caused while
      IN the hospital. Since MGBF didn’t fix that either, I’d put him at 812.500.

      Turns out the glee you had over the couple in Arizona was misplaced as well, turns out they were democrats

    Sorry I was out. This board has gone bullish after 1 big down day. Pity. How did that work out in March? I sold out of my CURE hedge pre-market (for a loss), and added to my 3x short inverses.

    Really interested in April earnings and their forecasts. Will actaul companies be predicting 4Q turbo boost? Doubt it, but remember to look for 2020Q4 **Y2Y,** not **Q2Q** earnigns/revenue/income.

      For you bulls with above average IQs, let me help you out.

      I’ve been bearsih for about a year now. “Valuation” was my mantra, but momentum/emotion. just kept taking stupid sh!t like TSLA up. My younger self would have blown the fuck up shorting stocks. However, I went long TLT/TMF, etc. insteasd Great lesson learned, so I survived missing out on “easy” gains in 2019, and acatully made more than I expected.

      So now a lot of bulls are thinking “Valuation”, and “Oversold” and jumping in. However, you are ignoring a few things at your own peril:
      1) Literal blood in the streets. COVID-19 isn’t done hammering the American psyche. Most peopel are still thinking, “It’s been almost week (it hasn’t though…), and we only have 5000 deaths. There is no way we get 100,000.”
      2) There is still a very high degree of uncertainity. It’s too eary to know just how much the “E” in PE ratio is goign to be affeted.
      3) Tehc has whethered this pretty good. TSLA barel spent 2 days with a YTD loss. Mnay of these stocks are well above their 2018 lows, which was acatully a much better econmic outlook than today.
      4) Look at the top chart here: “Put and call Options: Greed” Guaranteed that people that sell options are wealthier and usually better finacially educated than the ones buying them. A lot of worthless calls are being sold to Robinhooders.

          I replied to showtime with this:

          I’ve been saying all along that he is by very far the best candidate to unite all non-whites against the Republican Party (the whitest since 1986 per https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/11/07/us/elections/house-exit-polls-analysis.html but clearly also true since the GOP nominated its first candidate John Fremont for president in 1856)–for generations to come.

          For that reason alone, I will be quite pleased with whatever the election outcome turns out to be in November.

            Trump has destroyed the Republican party.

            **If** Trump wins again, then that will be the second time in a row that a dep-died establishment Democrat has lost an easy election. Can’t say that is all bad.

            On the other hand, he will destroy the Supreme Court if the Senate stays Republican. However, power has always resided in the people. Once Texas turns Blue, Republicnas are doubly screwed: they won’t win a Presidentail election for decades, which also means that Democrats can put more effort into other races. As the country moves Left, and the Courts move Right (in this scenario), I am confidant I will see a HUGE cahnge to the SC: either an impeachment or expansion. No way that it will be a 6-3 conservative majority for too many cycles.

            You ahve to rememebr that when it comes to the SC: Conservateive = AntiPopulist/ProCorporate

            SCOTUS lags the political pendulum swings because the justices usually serve till they die. The very liberal (Earl) Warren court reigned during the 50s and 60s but it was the product of the FDR-HST-DDE presidencies.

            The generational chasm will end up being the strongest force (more so than identity politics) in the subsequent decade. Neither the young liberals nor the young conservatives will have the desire to spend every last tax dollar on their grandparents–even though the old whites will always continue to vote Republican.

          Trump’s policy is “Me, first”.

          I think the trade war will help the wokring calss in the long term, but Trump didn’t have the balls to keep up the pressure while stock were falling, so he caved last fall.

          I agree that COVID-19 will finsh waht Trump started: protectionsim and less imports.
