The margin calls are coming folks. And I’m here to tell you how to avoid them. It’s quite simple really. Why do you consistently hold stocks overnight? The S&P 500 is down 150 handles so far in 2016 and it’s the second god damned week of January.
The S&P 500 is down 5 out of 8 days (including today’s loss) while on the other hand buying from 3:30 to 3:45pm is up 6 out of 8 days.
Here are the numbers:
S&P 500 YTD: -8%
Nasdaq YTD: -9.6%
Dow YTD: -7.3%
Russell 2000 YTD: -10.8%
Buying $SPY at 3:30pm and selling at 3:45pm YTD: +0.69%
That is how you avoid a margin call. And you can rub it in to all of your friends and family.
Stay safe.
