    Fas/faz - 5/4

    Respectfully, "No Way"...its only starting to fall. Heck, FAZ would have to go up at least 5 or 6% just to get to "normal".

    Down she goes. It was so overbought it could fall a long way.

    Any mechanics in here? Front-wheel drive brake question

    Hey there, Does the car run? Once you get the right rear brake sorted out, you can just drive the car on level ground and then coast and see if you can coast a reasonable distance. But I'm speculating that the car you're talking about has been sitting a while. Why? When brake lines...

    Fas/faz - 5/4

    Ah Grasshopper, you made the right choice. Regardless what happens in Asia, FAZ is in vogue and down is the new up. I'm out of my T+3 day thaw and I saw something in the graph that looks pretty darn good. SM

    Short ETFs under microscope as SEC pounces

    The funny thing is this. If you assume that that number of people using these ETFs grows every day, that means there were more people using them in the last 2 months than the 2 months prior. And yet, the markets went up overall. Man, this really torques me! SM

    FAS/FAZ for New Week 4/27

    Hey guys, In the interest of disclosure I sold out. Made some nice coin. I think the inverse funds will do well again tomorrow, but it was debatable about waiting around, so I bolted. Hope ya'll made money. SM

    FAS/FAZ for New Week 4/27

    I haven't been doing this very long at all, though I've watched charts for 30+ years. Seriously, you can't think about "if onlys" because they will eat you up. I was long the other day due, as you're describing, and the charts told me to get out. Even though prices rose, I was happy because I...

    FAS/FAZ for New Week 4/27

    Have some faith fellas. Its not a matter of "if", but when it will move up within the next couple days. I'm talking about a short-term play here...of course. Update: I think the profit taking has started. Inverse funds will climb from here...probably the rest of the day and maybe into...

    FAS/FAZ for New Week 4/27

    Volume really climbing. Could be the turn, but I get my data off of internet sources as I am a swing trader, so I'm not sure how it compares. Looks like the S&P is hitting a ceiling at 886. Is that a relevant resistance level? edit: I mispoke earlier and said the ceiling was at 888, it...

    FAS/FAZ for New Week 4/27

    I'm with you...so far out of its channel that it is somewhat humorous. It'll dive back absolutely no later than Friday afternoon for sure.

    Why real traders do not discuss gains or losses...

    I've been "successfully" trading for about a month, which I know is barely worth mentioning. But I am trying to teach myself to think of gains in terms of percentages instead of dollars. I figure that will help later when I build up something worth something. So is this a mistake since I am...

    Tell me why this is

    Wow. Thats a mind-opening statement. You're right...I'm not hanging out in the right crowd for this. I need to hobnob with entrepreneurs. SM

    Tell me why this is

    So I'm assuming you're successful at it. This is a serious question, but is it lonely? I mean, you're right...for the reasons you just outlined, it can be hard to find a person you know..."in person"...who does this, enjoys it, and someone you can bounce questions off of. I'm sure you can...

    Tell me why this is

    Honestly, yes, out of genuine love and selfishness. I have a few friends who I talk investments with as the basis of our friendship. After years of talking about it...plotting...scheming, I've finally hit on something that works and I want them to benefit. My other selfish reason is that if...

    Tell me why this is

    I've started doing technical analysis and swing trading. I seem to have a knack for it, and I've made enough trades to where I've proved to myself that my successes are not a statistical anomaly. What I'm doing is working so far. Here's what I don't understand. I feel this will make me...

    Serious Question about Swing Trading

    Thank you. Thats good solid advice. It brings up an interesting concept that I haven't seen explored here much through my reading. A system *SHOULD* change over time because one trading environment can be different than another. So, for my method, I'm using a moving averages like some would...
