Got too aggressive, was targeting a quick test of the 1370 level. Should've known it would churn and burn. Standing on the sidelines until the Fed. But if I had to guess I'd say we go down after the announcement.


Didn't see info here about where you exited. What was the loss? Also, please indicate stop when posting entry. Thanks:)

60 point swing in 24 hours, this market terrifies me. :p

lol, kind of reminds me of early 2008, lots of big price swings. institutions / countries on brink of bankruptcy and market defies all odds. this one could get a bit more dicey.

Yea reminds me of 2008 too, though rates weren't that low back in 2008. With the 10 year at 1.5% there is simply no money to be made in treasuries anymore, I guess thats why the "market is defying all odds" now. :)

treasuries can go lower. look at what happened to japan. some thought 2% was line in sand. 1% is in spitting distance.

Could go lower but the R/R isn't good at this point, the easy money has already been made.
