What a Run Up. Time to Pullback in Markets. Entered QID

Posted on August 7th, 2009 in Stock Market | No Comments »

Markets are primed to pullback from this amazing run up . The SPY pretty much went straight up for almost 4 weeks. It’s having difficulty breaking the $100 mark and down volume is picking up the last 3 days. Time to go short with the SDS.

Same with the QQQQ, it’s ready to pullback having tested the $40 price point and now should go down to test $37. I entered into the QID today.

Went Long TLT by Shorting TBT???

Posted on February 10th, 2009 in Stock Market | 3 Comments »

Today’s action was sleepy on the overall market with little movement. In addition we are over bought and ready for a pullback.  I decided to go long the TLT by shorting the TBT…huh?? Yes, I shorted the double short which means I went long….got that.  The TLT did not fill the gap which it may tomorrow so I am holding on.

I also went bearish on the S&P and bought the SDS which is 2x short the SPY. The chart below is the SDS which shows good support at $70-71. We pulled back on lighter volume and should head up to the $90-95 range. Lets see how the market pulls back this week.

Markets need direction this week. Buying TAN, and NDN

Posted on November 10th, 2008 in Long Trade | No Comments »

The major indexes climbed up to election and sold on the news after Obama won. Then we sold off Wednesday and Thursday on strong volume which I did not like that much even though I profited from it with SDS. I went long again on Friday but the overall volume was not strong enough for me. This makes it difficult to know which way we are heading this week but I still remain bullish. As of this writing the futures are all positive. China just pumped $568 billion into their market today and the Nikkei and Hang Seng are up over +5%.

I will enter into TAN a solar ETF on Monday near this pullback at $10.70. It wants to run up to $15 for a nice profit.

I also like 99 Cents Store (NDN) as it pulled back on lighter volume at $11 support. Below is a weekly 2 year chart showing the support and I think it will run up to $16. Put stops below 10.50.

Best Trading day the last 2 days.

Posted on October 15th, 2008 in Stock Market | No Comments »

My timing has been great these last 2 days. My DUG is up 30% and SDS is up 17%. Like I said yesterday watch the SPY and it did break the $95 support and came crashing down to close at $90.02. I have placed a sell in both SDS (115-120) and DUG (73-76) near the last swings.

APWR collapsed today down 24% but I placed my stop and only lost 3%. Always place stops in this has saved me so many times!!!!

Both Nikkei closed -11% and Hang Seng down -7% on Oct 16. This will pull the market down a little more. I also placed long buys on SSO and QLD near the lows of Friday with stops just below hoping this is a temporary bottom and playing for a bounce up.
