Just a bond fund that when it drops under 10, the market tanks.
I like looking for patterns so this is just a guide.
I shorted a bunch of things today. If you have enough money to keep buying on dips then tqqq is ok I guess, I don’t know anything but I think tqqq could go to 21-22 I think Dgaz is a great overall short.

Happy New Year!

So my kids can follow my insanity...
$2,000 at $48.12
$3,000 at $44.77
$5,000 at $40.13
1st $10,000 tranche

$2,000 at $36.33
$3,000 at $32.82 (not posted over the holidays)
$5,000 at $30.39 (not posted over the holidays)
2nd $10,000 tranche

approximate ACB $36.76. Hence, my "flight" instincts told me to sell while I'm break even. RSI(2) was over 87 and the market reversed today from a red opening.

What have I fixed?
- Pay attention to market direction. Mac's Guppy have clearly shown the market turning down and yet I continued to "mechanically" follow the plan (which could have been a nightmare).
- I have filtered to only include ETFs that are above the 200MVA
- in hindsight, that was crazy...

Still need to be fixed...
- my mindset when it comes to pulling the trigger (overstay when the position is against me)

DGAZ still going at $122 or $6.10 bfore the 20/1 reverse split! Lucky on this?

AAPL warns for the first time since 2007. When they took the step to take out detailed disclosure on units sold...that was a good hint?



Throw baby with the bath water time? China slowdown? Thank Trump?

Lessons learned in 2018:
- DMA was not a good indicator for me
- one may be right in thinking the sky ain't falling but NEVER ignore the trend as it can keep on going for a while which means opportunity lost.
- Any indicator in isolation will not help; in my case using RSI to build a position in a downtrend.
- scaling in and position sizing helped

So, the hunt for a simple "mechanical" plan continues!

Looking for feedback from Options inclined traders...



AMZN is about to report earnings in 2 weeks. However, unless my eyesight is failing me and missed something, there was a $6.7MM trade 1710/1720 PUT expiring Feb 1st. $60ish premium paid.

Seems to go agains the grain in my newbie brains...what am I missing?

Thank you

Replaced my stock purchase of STZ with STZ Jan 2020 160C using $20.30 so I can free up cash ;=P
