I use the 3x etf it is kind of the in between road for me
between a regular etf and options. That's what I love about trading
and investing, it evolves over time, I get to grow as a person,
trader, investor, and make choices based upon my plans that fit at
this point of my life.
Years ago I would have never considered using leverage. It took
years for me to figure out what my lane was and to stay in it
because that is me. I only consider certain things to trade and
instruments. That is sectors and indexes. And I'm usually using
leveraged etfs for trading. I can only be me and be comfortable
with what I'm comfortable with. Who knows maybe I'll try and
options trade at some point. I know many here use them and have
plenty of other friends who use them as well. I'll start small if I
consider it. Less is more. Glad to see everyone profiting here in
their strategies.
XBI bumping its head on the R1 pivot in deep 77s. The 9 day sits
back at $69s if its rising. Took some LABD to hedge my remaining
LABU shares when the risk/reward was best there. Good thing I was
trimming that all the way up on my longs. Two gaps below now for
markets 3,795 and 3,674. Seems reasonable for me to expect some
backing and filling here.
XLE I took the trade yesterday first entry on the close via the
2xetf, ERX. So far so good. One thing I like about this sector is
that they have earnings at their back. Can't say that for many:

Given that we had a demark 9, were at support, and far away from
the 9 ma, about all I could ask for. Risk/reward
Matt, This is fantastic. These are my kind of trades, I only use
sectors and indexes. Combining this with the CCI divergence for
reversion to mean captures rotations very well. Toss in the Demark
9 and risk reward goes up tremendously.
SPX I am reducing my 2022 forecast to reflect Fed policy
continuing on the path to raise rates and reduce its balance sheet.
Also in my calculation are recessionary signals, recent
layoffs, persistent inflation, reduced investments/project
cancellations by big business.
My previous 2022 forecast range
was 3,800-4,800 which I included overshoots
(forced liquidity and/or momentum).
My revised 2022 forecast range is
now 3,500-4,500. The 3,500 area coincides with a 50%
fib retracement off the March 2020 lows. I've attached a view of
the chart from yesterday. Included in my range again are overshoots
(forced liquidity and/or momentum)
XLE Someone mentioned the Demark 9 buy signal this morning here
and it looks like it confirmed on the close. Looks really good for
a long swing trade. Matt posted some chart views earlier as
well.
*Biggest Banks Withstand Severe Recession Scenario in Fed Stress
Test -- WSJ *All Banks Tested Remain Above Minimum Capital
Requirements in Worst-Case Scenario -- WSJ
...was reading details that they can withstand 10% unemployment
and a 55% stock price drop and keep lending
Given this, from a swing perspective that should mean we are due
for a big rally here at some point. The timing is the part everyone
is stumped on.
I just saw you added about the Bull/Bear spread, that part seems
to indicate lower prices as the spread is leaning greedy right now.
Kind of like charting I guess, pick the view one likes.
Took a few more off in LABU when it was up 15.53% today. Amazing
trade so far, entered on that big down day in the 4s off support.
Guessing it sees $7.18 as that is a perfect up 1.00 for the day.
Round numbers are a thing sometimes. Trim and trail.
SPX first gap filled 3,759. Another one left at 3,674. I sold
half off my objective entry at 3,790s. This is an update on my
hedge/short trade with SPXS.
XLP and XLU, not sure if anyone took these with me when I posted
them, though essentially were both the bottom when they were
posted. Just looked so overdone, given the business, dividends, and
both at major demand zones..attractive given the backdrop. I
believe XLU would have qualified as a demark 9 buy signal as well.
Still learning about that.
I took an objective hedge entry via SPXS premarket when SPX was
in 3,790s. I don't think the 3,759 gap or the 3,674 gap hold longer
term. No idea on the timing. I still own LABU long core, though
trimmed a few more at $6.50.
