Moments ago I went long TWM @ $21.11 (ultrashort of the Russell 2000)

Stop is $21.04

I am playing a trade based on the current chart pattern on the Russell 2000 at this moment.

chuck,

canada here,

what a trade your twm

hope you got out at 21.60 to day

this etf will never again in a life time

go past 30 bucks

these inverses are all imploding because of

continuous role out cost

that means the promoters get rich

and the investors lose money

only good for a very fast in and out

for the most nimble traders

some time ago i said about the same thing for ung

although it,s not an inverse the roleout cost

are driving it in the ground

untill there is no vallue left

now if somehow trough the right connections

somehow has the right information

well then ofcourse a great deal of money can be made

but being thus positioned there will be other

perhaps better entities to trade in

for such a well connected individual

anyway here for what it,s worth

take your profit fast in this one

best of luck from canada

love your video,s

and do not mind you going on a bit

it,s all apriciated

best hdeen

Guys,

Watch the video tonight (will be posted in about 10 minutes). I discuss the TWM trade a bit more.

How can you not get stopped out with only a 7 cent leeway on a double etf? I thought you had to give those a little “wiggle” room.

Man, I had a similar trade on the futures. I went short at 675.6 and had an 8 tick stop. I was stopped in a few minutes.
Fwiw, I have another short setup in the 691-695 area so far:

We’ll see…

Chuck, even though I think of you as an egomanic, here is my ADVICE to you:

1] ETFs are bad vehicles for playing the market as they suffer from many of the problems that we have with options.

2] TWM is a thinly traded ETF with a market cap of only 408 million.

3] Once agin, you are guessing the top, like you have been doing for a year.

When will you learn??

KK,

If you had watched the video posted last night you would have understood my trade on TWM. As I said I would do I raised my stop this morning up to 21.17. Got stopped out at the level I set and made a profit.

And the problem is?
