Are we now in "safe" bear market?

I don't think you can call this a bear market, it's just news reaction and has only been 2 weeks. A proper bear market takes months
 
I'm mainly short bias $-wise with inverses, i bought small size this am:

bear TVIX UVXY VXX SQQQ

bull TQQQ TLRY CGC

oil: GUSH UWT DWT

i'll add to who goes up and take small stops on those that go down, i hedge/arb

Proper? That is groupthink.

Bear markets go against the crowd.

Anyway hadn't you notice things move faster this twitter days?

No such thing as "safe market". They can find a vaccine tomorrow for the Corona-Virus or find some drug that's already in distribution (widely available) that wipes it out of the blood stream.

Always protect yourself with stops because markets are not safe.

Stops in this market can be skipped over quite handily. Many stops will be skipped with this open. Only options can save you maybe.

Just got back this weekend from March spring break with the family. Not trading today nor for the next few days to rest...I'm saved. :D

I'm sure next week the crazy stuff with Oil and Corona Virus will still be here. No hurry to jump into the middle of that chaos.

Yet, will be very careful about public places. My mom has already cancel her cruise, grand parents died years ago...no need to visit anyone in the nursing home, no medical appointments until next month for myself...

Options not fixing the chaos...I am unless someone sneezes on me or on something I touch at the grocery store. :vomit: :rolleyes:

Had the balls and skills and ramped up size hard could of turned my 3k into 100k week before last, but reality I'd get so far get greedy and end up with a huge negative account.

Lets see what happens when they remove the lock, quick dive and back on lock i guess.
