i see no plan. gamble. tomorrow is also EIA Petroleum Status Report, which can move oil in any direction as well. OP! have you heard about it? :) UWTI is a pussy play. buy few CL contracts and score(or loose) big! buy options on CL(are they exist?) to go even bigger!Do the O'Hare spread! go for...

phone orders are more expensive. don't you know that?

define simple. imo-the easiest way is to do it manually. in excel

as i said above-i've done it live.it's not about inverse or leveraged ETF's( but those are on my list as well) . in short-it just a bunch of highly correlated ETF's. and it's not that easy, as many might think.

look..in russia they were paying about $10 a month for internet that covers unlimited data on your phone(i know,it's shitty,but it works),calls and internet at home. my point is that they are using EXACT SAME INFRASTRUCTURE. same fiber cables,same equipment that was made and developed in US. and...
