How I'm Trading the Volatility: Live trades (Jan)

It's been a frustrating journey trading inverses lately. Biggest lesson learned is scale slowly bc pullbacks have often lasted just a few days.

Still expecting mother of all crashes due to coronavirus, but getting headfaked has been the norm.

In just a few k of inverses today, will scale tomorrow. UVXY favorite bc VIX pivot likely good for more.

I just did a comparasion chart between QLD +tqqq;
but didnt learn much because it wrongly did not split adjust QLD/LOL
And then a comparison chart % between QQQ + tqqq.
OF course TQQQ makes much more as a long term investment/uptrend;
but trading,QQQ allows profit taking much more of the time.[For this study i assumed buy the monthly high/all the time/past 3 years.[Of course buy the bear market hi in tqqq = the best way to get killed in price]✔✔
Also that chart is somewhat misleading/even though the % change between QQQ+ TQQQ is reasonably CONSTANT\\ TQQQ went far below QQQ in price[ much bigger drawdowns]

Good point re TQQQ, it and SPXL are my 2 favorite long ETFs.

Will test rms idea of buy close sell open in s&p via SPXL next week starting first green day. Will test with inverses TZA SQQQ SDOW on red day.

I rebought a bit of inverses Friday right at end of day in case selling Monday, didn't hedge much other than long CGC PFE etc.

Lol but at least I'm hedging partially with long CGC PFE etc.. . Mkt's near resistance. Will rotate into SPXL TQQQ if breakout continues
