Ain't that the truth!
Deadjim, I have been reading your posts for a while. You drop some serious knowledge, man. Thanks. I am learning a lot....been following you ever since you responded eloquently to one of my posts on the TVIX board.
We can dream, can't we, for leadership representing the People?
Thanks for the resistance and support info. Looking good.
I know, that "I" word. Lol. He has been nearly called the "N" word to his face and disrespected so much by many people beneath his status but he still finds a way to maintain his composure and keep on track. I don't know how he does is.
In any case, look for Pres O to deliver FnF to shareholders. Mel Watts is following the script written for him by O's administration. The final act is nearby.
I am just about willing to bet the house on it that Pres Obama is setting things up to release FnF. It's timing is going to catch many off guard because they are not expecting him to have anything to do with it.
We just have to wait and see The Magician's plan unfold.
Wait and see. Pres Obama is going to blindside opponents to FnF release like he blindsided Romney in 2012 debates with the "Horses and Bayonets" comment that started to sink Romney's battleship.
The Magician, Pres Barack Obama, has a pending "trick" up his sleeve....the release of Fannie and Freddie back to the shareholders.
All signs are pointing to it without being outright forthcoming. It's going to be one of his "farewell" gifts to the Congressmen that want to do away with FnF.
It's all shaping up. Stay tuned.
Nope. At that time, it said to stay away. Easy to say "they lied" in hindsight.
PJ, ClayTrader knows his stuff, man. I have watched his videos and learned a lot. Where I mess up, including on TVIX, is my freaking mind wants to look for fundamental reasons to justify holding on to a losing position instead of letting go for a small, manageable loss and moving on.
When I win, it's mainly because I followed what the chart was saying, respected it and played it accordingly including taking small losses at times. When I lose big, it's because the chart went against me, I didn't set a stop-loss and then my mind starts to look for fundamental reasons to hold on. Then fear creeps in as the price drifts down further and I finally sell for a 50% loss. Of course, they usually rebound but I would not have been in that situation if I would have let the chart speak to me and LISTEN instead of trying to impose my will on the chart.
I have to review ClayTrader's videos quite a bit personally because I still have a challenge with accepting a loss and I justify holding on a.k.a not selling with a "fundamental" reason like "wait for Russia to send a missile to Ukraine" for TVIX to run or some other mental BS game I run on myself to avoid acknowledging the loss and keeping it small.
In saying that, it is something about the way ClayTrader responded to you that actually set a lightbulb off where I actually GET IT this time. We'll see.
Truth.com, Dude iligence. Marvin recently bit me on the butt. Cash only, going forward and keeping positions smaller to allow me to have $ to trade with while the other cash is locked in T + 3.
You mean CEOs selling shares I assume?
Good idea.

Is anyone using eTrade seeing that TVIX is not moving on Level 2 or the charts? I can pull up any ticker's movement EXCEPT TVIX. Strange.
Stopped out for a 5% loss. Not taking anything larger than that. I will continue to watch and wait for additional confirmation before playing this one again.
I saw an 800K dump over 3 tape entries right behind each other AH. One was 500K block and two blocks had 150K each.
Great update, CT! Thanks.
All-time low of $TVIX was $2.01 & $VIX was 11.53 and both were hit on Dec 5th, 2014. I wouldn't be surprised if the market breach it again before turning bearish.
Setting up a GTC order for 1K shares to catch a price dip sub $2.
Yup, got in at $2.16 today. I can afford to ride this out a little less than all time lows before stopping out.
I just picked up 3100 shares at $2.1651 on that dip.
Geeeeaaad Damn! $SPY is running like a mofo. Watching TVIX and SPY on charts and L2 is interesting.
This explains why penny stock pumps (and major board pumps) are so successful for those doing the pumping after they preloaded.
Sheeple mentality is real....I still have my own challenges with jumping into stocks at the top. Been doing better lately with being patient and charting & checking news before making plays. Kinda staying away from ETFs/ETNs right now.
The biggest help for me is deciding not to day trade anymore and instead, swing trade. ST calls for a different strategy which works better for me.
That makes sense to me....nailing the trade. Spot on, DJ.
Excellent post!
Recent volume movement is sweet on this one. On watch. Thanks.
Gotta put this puppy on an alert. FNMA runs out of the freaking blue.
The key question is "when will the bubble burst?" for which no one knows. Markets can remain overbought for a long time before cracking. Until such time, as ClayTrader says, "play the charts!"
Seeing natural gas from the charts you posted, it looks like good setups are nearby. The drops over the last 4 months have been huge. Risk / reward could be bad a$$.
As you suggested, its going on my watch and alert list. Thanks, SK.
"Hello. 911. I am calling in to report a crime. I see this ticker $SPY beating the crap out of $TVIX. Please send help immediately. It appears $TVIX is critically injured."
Obama can't win for losing. Lol. On another note, I think the closer it gets to the end of his term, we are going to see volatility roar back.
Volatility is going to roar back but it is no where in site. The big players got the market on lock down. Volatility is scared to show its face. Volatility will reign supreme again. Put some price and volume alerts on SPY and TVIX and start sniffing out other plays.
TVIX is going to rebound, hopefully without an RS.
The "when" part, like anything in the market, is hard to figure out. To sniff out that "when" part, I got this ticker and SPY on opposite price and volume alerts. Let your brokerage alerts do da heavy liftin'.
Hmm, that volume is catching my eye. Time to dig around. Thanks.
Down goes $TVIX. Mr. Market refuse to show any signs of weakening. This will keep getting super ugly until Mr. Market decides to run things the other way.
