 I have tried for a long time and at considerable expense to put his work to use for my benefit and I have come to the conclusion that I am not smart enough to distill from the mountains of data he puts out to make profitable investing or speculating decisions.  I also don't think his service is a good fit for a trader and to me that is what one has to be in todays equity markets . He keeps soliciting me back as a customer and wants me to buy his premium service.  When i tried to pin him down on his expected results from this expensive service his reponses were very unprofesional.     Caveat Emptor   My advice stick with Matt and Steve

TZA SWING

I have Neg Div. on my 5, 15min and 30 ...

cspirit   you mentioned earlier swinging TZA over the weekend and I am curious what time frame chart you put the most weighting  on to pull the trigger or what is your primary indicator that you put the most faith in . I also went LONG TZA at the open as I saw  all my charts extended and way outside my bollinger bands and RSI on my 5 minute pegged

TZA

Bought TZA @ the close 34.01  Lets see how much we pull back tomorrow

I follow your trades and thanks for posting them . Your batting average is outstanding . 

A paid for house

An August Surprise from Obama?

Posted by airstream on 5th of Aug 2010 at 02:36 pm

My wife and I last year decided to sell our expensive house in the Bay area and move to Idaho and we paid cash for a beautiful home that gives us a huge feeling of security. For me it is like buying an annuity as rent on a comparable house  up here would be   $2500 a month and I could not get that return on 400K to 500K  in a safe investment if there is such a thing anymore.  You have to live somewhere so for me I love not haveing to write a check each month to send to some bank.  If things get really rough in this economy we will have a place to live.  We are also debt free. I spent most of my life being a debt slave  but  leverage does not work for you anymore .

Yes I did  Made a dollar per share on the trade . Thanks Matt   I would not have done it without your chart this morning.  It took some patience  but it finally got going.

GDX SYSTEM

Looks like option one is a no brainer . Enter the trade at the signal  sell at 10 % then wait for the next signal.    Naw can't be that easy    Great chart Matt    Ten percent  gain from the present 7.5 percent is a huge improvement  . In looking at the column Sell at 10 percent gain is that correct that there were all 10 % gains except  8/20/2009    That is incredible 

GDX System

Posted by airstream on 28th of Jul 2010 at 01:32 pm

I like the  fact that it trades less frequently so I don't run into the 3 day issue in cash accounts also I like the fact that  I can position part of my portfolio in a less volatile system that seems to    require less daily monitoring . Ditch mentioned the DZZ as a way to play the pullbacks and as it is a leveraged ETN I can adjust my position size accordingly .  I would not use the system only in my IRA's but prefer to keep my margin account for short duration opportunities

Inverse fund

Retirement Accounts

SPY swing system

Posted by airstream on 23rd of Jul 2010 at 04:42 pm

Thanks Matt    It is good to have signals for my retirement accounts as well as my tradeing portfolio .  I would like to see you set up a section for those trades like you have with the GDX  swing system . I have been  useing the GDX signals for a portion of my retirement money . This S&P signal is great  . I would appreciate a place on the site where I could check the signal daily.    Thanks and have a great weekend .

Thanks for posting your trades   cspirit    Do you have a  price target for this trade

Great Chart    A break back above the 208 EMA by the 13 and 34 looks to me like a great place to get long for a swing trade . A good confirmation we run higher into July 4th if it happens . If we head back down then we add back in some shorts .     FWIW
