In regards to stocks, the market will eventually turn south, and you will be a big winner. I don’t know when that will be, but I think we have a rough patch coming at the end of this week with the employment report.
IWM and USO are non levered etfs with extremely high volume. The only scam etfs are the triple levered junk like DRV, and TNA.
My statement was in regards to the price action in the underlying indexes. The old “Oil up/Market up” correlation is dying. That’s a fairly bearish omen.
Levered ETFs are worse than non-levered ones. However, even the non-levered ones are bad investments overall. If you don’t believe me, compare the charts of USO vs the actual price of oil. Or even better, compare UNG to natural gas. Neither are levered, and both have and will continue to underperform their underlying commodity.
What you mean to say is that ETNs that track futures contracts are not a good trading vehicle, for you. To say that all ETFs are bad is extremely ignorant. Read the fucking prospectus.

Prior to jumping, shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thyself off the holy cliff.
then may i suggest if your trading the long side cash your chips in …asap without reservation…and for the love of your money stop buying shit in pre market..this is not the time to be chasing stocks…go short a little
theres the problem ….weeks ago, isnt now..buy and hold ,well thats way past my 8 hour moving average..and when im home it would be an eternity past my 3 hour moving average…more profit taking tomorrow…
I never said buy and hold. An upward flowing market is a time to choose the hottest stocks in the hottest sectors in the soon to be future. Rotation and placement are key.
you can check back thru the logs i try to post my buy and sells ….i get in and i get out..sometimes im out for awhile …i get by, i dont do this for a living…but im thinking about staying in for the downside this time
Yep… looked it up on the map – Highway 68… Reminded me of a line in one of my favorite songs

Beautiful day, top back and it’s time to chill”
Can i just tell you how at ease i feel after worrying incessantly for the last two days, making trades at video game speed, trying desperately not to blow 20% of my account.
I escaped -3%. I am now comfortably positioned:
25% TLT
25% EWZ (collared at 69)
25% QQQQ (collared at 45)
1000 shares VXX
30 september S&P 107 puts
And here I shall rest until i see an overextreme reading in the PP T hybrid. And no harm shall come to pass against me.
Scaled out gains back down to 1/8th short. Watch that UUP chart. Any escalation in the mideast, or further good econ reports, and the dollar could run for 85. Not good for the dow.
And what shall we do if a steep cliff is not available? Would a 3-story building suffice?
Digger off the top of the baler will likely do it.

In the past 2 days,(USO) oil is up about 4%, while smallcaps (IWM) are barely up 1%. I can’t find a bullish angle in that divergence.
At this rate, we’ll need a 8% rally in oil to push smallcaps up another 2%.
All ETFs are scams. IWM is no different. Do yourself a favor, and buy into a real company.
I only use ETF’s when absolutely necessary. For instance in my IRA account when I expect the market to sell-off.
oil is up,cause the buck is cheap etf’s suck the big cock a large armenian cock none the less. the royal scam…………my buddies’ band…………….steely dan

He would read it.. if he knew how…
ETF’s are run by people getting big paychecks.
Some of you should stick to your professions, which is not in the field of proper money management.

Fly, what do you know about the effect the price of sugar in Maharashtra has on the stock market?
Last night I reread “The Important Matter of Position Sizing”. Good stuff for these troubled times.

An Ode to The Market, Summer 2010 Edition
(c) 2010, IX. A Distinguished Gentleman of The PPT
My long’s been ground
My shorts are blown
Portfolio’s downed
and profits have flown
Much like in Vegas,
some play just to lose
it doesn’t take Bernanke
Or a mad Madoff ruse
I’m in a timeout,
been told to go chill
The market’s a bitch,
and not worth the thrill
Been smacked in the head
and suffered whip lash
Time to go eat a sandwich
and hold onto my cash.
Very good!
Thanks Hawaii.
It came to me in a vision of sugarplums and QE2, dancing in my head.
kinda quiet in here tonight…was it something i said ?
Prior to jumping, shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thyself off the holy cliff.
Everyone is quiet because the market is scalping it’s participants.
then may i suggest if your trading the long side cash your chips in …asap without reservation…and for the love of your money stop buying shit in pre market..this is not the time to be chasing stocks…go short a little
going short is gay… and you WILL LOSE MONEY.
Didn’t i send a few bearshitters beware comments out a few weeks ago?
theres the problem ….weeks ago, isnt now..buy and hold ,well thats way past my 8 hour moving average..and when im home it would be an eternity past my 3 hour moving average…more profit taking tomorrow…
I never said buy and hold. An upward flowing market is a time to choose the hottest stocks in the hottest sectors in the soon to be future. Rotation and placement are key.
thats when you should be selling not buying in my opinion…you should be looking short now…again my opinion…thats my rotation
Arch and bullish are you guys making any money?
you can check back thru the logs i try to post my buy and sells ….i get in and i get out..sometimes im out for awhile …i get by, i dont do this for a living…but im thinking about staying in for the downside this time
Very much so… daily
Who put that piece up about gorilla glass made by GLW today? Was it in the PPT or out here?
Anyways, I got notice tonight that they will be making it very close to the country’s major bourbon distilleries.
Should make for an interesting show.

It’s not late out here on the left coast! Honestly, Le Fly – do you ever sleep?

Although I may not move much.
you got it.. pointless port… might as well sit in cash…
Its system based….without boring with details, the TLT part could move into something more aggressive any given week.
The only discretion here is the VXX and S&P puts….
I dont know how I do it.

I know a guy who jumped off a bridge. He said that halfway down he was thinking, “That was really stupid.”
how do you know him if he’s dead ..
go figure
He lived. Landed in the river. Crushed a couple vertebrae. This is the bridge- http://htmlhelp.com/~liam/Oregon/ColumbiaRiverGorge/BridgeOfTheGods.jpg The cops were after him, The chase became a rescue.
that’s not a steep cliff
so .. he jumped off a bridge , into a river .. different story
Scaled out gains back down to 1/8th short. Watch that UUP chart. Any escalation in the mideast, or further good econ reports, and the dollar could run for 85. Not good for the dow.
Good econ reports = dollar runs
Dollar runs = bad for the Dow
By the transitive property you are saying good econ reports are bad for the Dow. That’s fucked up. And wrong.
