    Nasdaq back to all time highs.

    Although I still expect a major selloff is likely to happen sooner rather than later...as it seems overbought, frothy.... Price action is all that matters I'm doing a lot more daytrading than swings now. Favorite strategy is intraday swings, buy by 10am, use 1 point trailing stop, out...

    Battle between Bulls vs Bears: ETF hedge strategy

    Sure, no re buying both at open, I put in buy stop orders for both slightly above opening price, eg 30 to 70 cents on average. One of them gets filled. I use OTO conditional orders with 1 point trailing stop initially, after it moves up I tighten to 30 cent trailing stop. I also...

    Battle between Bulls vs Bears: ETF hedge strategy

    Right, it may be better for daytrading, eg I went long DUST earlier today, tightened trailing stop, and put in buy stop order for opposing GDX in case it bounces, as a hedge, later today. The key for daytrading these is they should be trading outside prior days range, like TVIX/SPXL GDX/DUST

    Battle between Bulls vs Bears: ETF hedge strategy

    Good points, I'm also daytrading to lock in gains on winners, eg I just tightened in trailing stops to .30 on SPXL TNA. I also just entered buy stop orders slightly above market for TZA TVIX in case they bounce. Probably smart to continue overnight holds at equal capital so gap direction...

    Battle between Bulls vs Bears: ETF hedge strategy

    After making solid profits trading inverse ETFs during feb/march, I stubbornly kept trading them apr/may, giving back much of my profit trying to bottomfish; I was a skeptic of the bounce. But price action is all that matters. So I'm starting fresh, using my ETF arb strategy I published last...

    I don't track that, nor make performance claims, but if I did I'd simply look at percent of winning alerts. Meaning how many of the stocks on the list that got above the alert price ran up st least 40 cents or more. In today's list most didn't break over the entry triggers yet, though PTON...

    Bears back finally? Dow futs-200

    Thanks; excellent point... I'm mostly cash and will focus more on daytrading them until there's a strong breakout vs slow grind. I made good $ feb mar but gave a lot back from fomo lately. Your points really helped lately, you're very smart. I'll refocus on classic stock daytrading too, eg...
