No worries Chris! I didn't do so well in my first trade with this TVIX back in August. The "Macro" view should be this; How much "higher" (Dow 18K, NASDAQ 5,200+, S&P 2,100+) can the CBs push the markets before the next inevitable Recession hits (Q3 '16)?? In the meantime play the TVIX very nimbly and DON'T pay more than $5.80s unless you can Day Trade it!!! - JMHO
