Picked up some more at the opening. Looks like the $9s is where it might hold....we’ll see but I can see this popping its head over $10 easily soon. Worth a shot!
- IMHO
I keep thanking God every day that I’m only day trading this thing and not holding it over night! Too volatile and dangerous to do so....
- JMHO
Laid out some (shorts) in this morning’s run up after taking a beating yesterday (although always keep relatively close stops). I’ve got a a decent avg price now.....waiting to see if this breaks $500 on the downside. It’s due....
- IMHO
I’m making a bet that the overall markets will find a temporary floor here (Dow 20K/ NASDAQ 6.9K) and there have been reports of long lines of cannabis users hoarding cannabis products that will be reflected in the next quarter(s). It’s only a speculation but worth taking another shot here.
- IMHO
I’ve been scaling my purchases on the way down this morning....certainly feels like catching a falling knife though!
- IMHO
Going back to the well....picking some up again (yes, call me hard headed). Let’s see this time.
- IMHO
Stopped out! And that’s that....sidelines time. Let the smoke clear.
- IMHO
Have a position with a dollar cost average of $9.87. Keeping a stop loss at $9.60! Let’s see what happens...great weekend everyone!
- JMHO
As dumb as it sounds I picked up a bit more at $9.80....I’m a glutton for punishment in this thing. Brought my dollar cost average below $10 though. We’ll see.
- JMHO
Can’t believe that my stop down at $9.50 didn’t get triggered! There’s still plenty of trading left in the day so it still might....LOL!
- IMHO
Sold some this morning at the opening for tiny gain but will most definitely get stopped out on the rest here soon. Net-net...a wash. This thing is definitely in a bear market! Going flat this weekend so it’s all good!
- IMHO
Got stopped out at $375 on the bounce! Mad a couple of good bucks but not what I was expecting. I’m not complaining though so I’m considering myself lucky vs good- this time....
- IMHO
Laid out some at $397, $398.47,.....
This is crazy though!
- JMHO
Holy smokes! Got filled at $10.07, $10.09, and $10.12! Will lower a Stop Loss to $9.75 but damn this is looking scary! Ugly too...
- JMHO
Wow! The carnage in the markets! I might come back in this turd and pick some up at $10.50 to take shot. I’ll definitely keep a Stop Loss at $10 in case it breaks down further and goes into single digit land!
- IMHO
Got stopped out at $195 for a $3 loss on my avg position. Not happy but probably best to sit on the sidelines. This is probably overbought and the markets oversold but not easy going against the momentum....
- IMHO
Thanks- I’ll take a look. BTW- held off my shorts until it hit $190....didn’t get off that much but got filled all the way to $192. Let’s see if the markets have a late day rally towards the close.
- JMHO
Looking to layout some (shorts) at $185 and upwards with a stop at $190. We’ll see...
- JMHO
Can’t believe I dodged a bullet yesterday by closing out my positions...overall took a slight loss (> $2/share) but I would’ve been killed this morning!!
- IMHO
Getting filled some more lots up in the $140s.....thank God for small lots! Still keeping my eye on Dow 26K. It looks very dicey.
- IMHO
Got filled all the way up to the $138s! Holy smokes!! Market is either going to bounce here soon or drop another thousand points! Very volatile markets....
- IMHO
Laying out some (shorts) here in the $136s.....will scale into a position....keeping my eye on Dow 26K. Seeing if it will hold.

Stopped out at $125 (again) with a $2.57 profit. Sitting on side lines looking to get back in....
- IMHO
Got stopped out of the small lot I held overnight but didn’t get too dinged from yesterday’s profits. I’m laying out some more shorts up here at $127+......looking for scalping opportunities or an intermediate trade. Let’s see.
- JMHO
Good points, and yes- taking small profits here and there while reloading (short side) on extreme up moves!
- IMHO
Still short from yesterday! Keeping a tight stop loss just in case these TVIXs decide to make new highs!
- IMHO
Got shorts off at $120.50, $121.57, $122.77, and $123.05....avg $121.97
Keeping a tighter stop loss though this time!
- IMHO
Got stopped out earlier at $107....but I’m ok with that cause I had a built in profit in that trade. Looking to lay out another short here in the $120s. This is awesome volatility!
- IMHO
Knew this was coming....staying short! Dollar cost average is $114.45!! Looking for $70s....
- IMHO
Correct...not looking for that much more headway’s up on the Dow/Nasdaq/S&P but more like a consolidation right up here in the next week or two which will make the deterioration factor in TVIXs even more profound as it’s the “time” factor that kills the value in the TVIX!
- IMHO
My guess is that the TVIX breaks below $70 sometime this month. I’ll look to cover my short then...
- JMHO
Carrying my short from Friday ($116s), and laid out a little more this morning at $110. Let’s see what happens....
- IMHO
Thanks! You too
Thanks! I couldn’t help myself and went back in and short a small lot at $116.86 but couldn’t short anymore. The minute I saw the Fed Chair talking about cutting again I knew the market was going bounce a bit. Holding small over the weekend but not too worried. Have a great weekend!
- IMHO
Closed out my position at $117...took a tiny gain ($3+) but as I had mentioned previously, if the market was going to “bounce” it would have had to have done it within the first hour of trading. Not worth holding over the weekend! GLTY!
- IMHO
If the markets go green and close green I’ll take most of my position over the weekend but if they’re still red then no- will close out position.
- JMHO
Dollar cost average is $12.72....let’s see if this can get back to $14- $15.
- IMHO
Laid out additional shorts at $121 and $122.....it’s going to be a nail biter if the markets don’t go green soon!!
- JMHO
Agreed....bought a little back at $115 to offset my losses from yesterday and looking to keep the rest for a larger gain. If it peaks its head above $120 again I might short some more. If the markets are going to bounce back towards the green it better do it within the next hour. If so, I can see this break $100 on the downside quickly.
