The coming bear trap

Quote from ByLoSellHi:
Are you selling or buying here, mak?

Just curious.

Didn't do much today. Reversed EEM (long->short) on the open. That's it.

I (almost) never reduce or increase exposure to stocks. I am always invested in all my stock strategies at all times. I just have varying means of hedging on top (SPY puts or ES short, right now SPY puts). I am always fully hedged any day of the year, the question is only if by ways of puts or short futures. Puts are cheaper in an up market (I bought these last week), short futures obviously the way to go when IV is very high and puts are expensive by historical standards.

So why the predicting title?

Don't worry that sick fuck should be gone soon. He posted gay porn on the fucking board so he'll be banned.

I hope he loses it all. If I knew where he lived I'd fly down and beat the fuck out of him.

Quote from SiSePuede!:

So now you're predicting?

Pretty obvious prediction.

There ALWAYS is a bear trap. Of course, no one knows how many times the bear gets what he wants before.

If the tick (NYSE) hits +1000, and the most recent pivot high is cleared, then I'd say the trap is sprung.

Good luck to all.

lol. Not sure I believe that. You only buy with no risk. Why would you be short anything?

Flipflopper, comments such as "I hope he loses it all. If I knew where he lived I'd fly down and beat the fuck out of him.
are not appreciated by many of us. I hope you will cool your rhetoric.

We are all doing the best we can, and none of us are perfect, and we all have different definitions of perfect. So please cool it.
