Reiterate that market is priced like pre-Brexit - asymetrically
for one outcome. Having some hedges against that outcome probably
won't hurt much even if wrong and will pay nicely if right.
well, I bought some ES down here, I managed to pick some up at
2032.25, sold +26 points, now going to bed.
when you have extreme moves like this, if you are patient and
know your triggers, it can be quite awesome.
otherwise yeah I suppose it made sense buying some gold today as
a hedge, with trumps talk about reigning in the Fed, you knew gold
would fly if he won, wish I had bought some of that
anyway regardless of the market, it's certainly going to be
interesting going forward all the political fall out etc

Bought some gold stocks and volatility insurance just in case and things look like they will pay off.
Noticed a falling wedge on gold futures and rising wedge on USD Yen cross going into the election.
Was a high risk venture but looks like I will be handsomely rewarded so far.
well, I bought some ES
