Steve, I bought some FAZ yesterday, but it's weak this morning.
I have a stop at 16.63, below the low of last Thursday.
Is that too tight? I don't have a lot of confidence
trading these inverse etf's, especially the leveraged ones.
Thanks.
Yes the leveraged ETF's can be tough, especially the triple
leveraged 3X ones, if you don't have confidence with them, that
gives you your answer not to trade them and stay away, or only do a
tiny amount.
last night I discussed the XLF financials were holding up well.
FAZ on the daily might also need to make a divergent low first,
hard to say. what made you buy it yesterday? I wasn't
surprised to see the market follow through today because the 15 min
bull wedge patterns on the SPX didn't hit their targets, didn't
even rally 38%, generally they do at least that.
Anyway I suggest adhering to your stop since you are in
it.

In it due to the chart posted w/ downtrend line last week and
the discussion surrounding it, and I had some positions to hedge.
FAZ position small. I may just bail here even before
the stop; waiting to see if the market gap is going to hold.
