I hope you're not referring to me when you say "talked out of holding TVIX"???

Ummmmmmm I don't think I'm alone when It did really look like it was heading under $2.00 and I posted possible R/S because PPS was in low 2'S because it already had a history of R/S around that price range over the last couple years. Also the fact that JNUG had recently announced a R/S. Nevertheless you shouldn't really have worried about the R/S as it doesn't have the same negative impact on ETF's like they do on stocks. the main concern was markets continuing to move up and TVIX was falling, that's it!
Anyway, my posts didn't seem to have any effect on your decision because you posted this on TVIX days after my posts...

You made the decision to sell for quick flip when markets were signalling a pullback. Even I was surprised to see you had tossed it...
FWIW TVIX is only good for a swing trade when markets look to pullback, not a long term hold. I have been in and out of TVIX dozens of times in the last couple years. I picked some up today @ 2.41 and you had plenty of time to get back in the last couple days so no excuses or playing the blame game. Next time Follow your own advice and gut. Nobody is to blame but you for your decisions .
