IMO, I see nothing wrong being ms.Orgy.. brows.gif
Stocks Orgy.. that is. laugh.gif

Resistance at SPX 1150 and Dow 10700 (Jan highs) still pretty strong.
Sellers are selling into any kind of strength here.

Not high enough for short, not low enough to go long. Not enough momentum to predict either direction.
A bit difficult to trade here. hmm.gif Holding pattern for now. Let see who wins by the end of the day.

yup, hard to trade. Look at your new favourita, UCO, hit low 981 and now bounced back nearing 990.
Q for C last nite, check, no hit. 3.75. Almost there but not there yet.

Bull balls got caught again by bear's hand. Everyday down. Not yet confirmed a BEAR in making, still pulling each others balls.

UCO in RED, SDS in Green.

Oh darn..I'm slightly under water now with UCO. Need 9.86 to break even.
I think crude should go back up above 70. I'm going hold for a while since we're already at lows.

Should have kept my SDS. doh.gif Oh well, can't win 'em all.

Update 1:45am
Folks, bulltrap part two here. I've jumped to VXX @ 27 to ride this down a bit.

Update 2:30am
Goldman Sachs said the upcoming Financial Regulations going to take up to 20% hit all banks profits if implemented!! shocking.gif If so, time to get out or short financials folks!

Update 3:20am
Took some profit in VXX 29.10.

Closing update:
Dow 10510.95 -114.88 -1.08%
Nasdaq 2317.26 -36.97 -1.57%
S&P 500 1120.80 -16.14 -1.42%

Another day - another bull trap here. Bulls got no more love anymore. We are getting very close to the 200MA here and if this blows thru another trading session or so.. a big trap door will open. We definitely going to drop below 10K, perhaps with a leg down to that fateful 'glitch' day on Dow 9800 or S&P 1065/1070.

Be very careful and stay cautious here.. Try stay in cash as much as you can (for longs). nod.gif
Shorts - once the trap door is opened, you know what to do. tongue.gif

Yes, those calls options are worth quite a bit if we go downhill. Heck,even this Friday in-money calls are doubling already. Crazy volatility there. biggrin.gif

I'm sure the bulls may want to pump it back up but the big boys in control want to push this down to 200 MA and lower to shake off the weak hands.

You can buy VXX just like an ETF or stock during trading hours.
It has indirect play for VIX.

Yeah, VXX is an ETF.

I think any broker allows option trading right? As long as you subsribe for the service no?

Yes, if you've an approved margin account for option with your broker, you can trade options.
Be careful with playing with options. It is highly volatile and lose everything by option expiration if you're not careful.
It can be very profitable too. I usually use it during extreme bear or bull market or if the price of the underlying stock is too high (eg. like AAPL or GOOG) etc.


Added on May 19, 2010, 7:51 pmLooks like another downhill Wednesday night.. biggrin.gif

Continue to ride the VXX tonight till we get to SPX 1100, then I'll buy some (meaning going long). laugh.gif

Update 9:50pm
Looks like we got a small bounce back from the early drop but VIX still remains high. I'm still keeping my VXX unless it drops to 27.

I'm still on the sideline. Don't know how to capitalize on this volatility. Hope it won't be a bear market as I really hate shorting. Comon bulls!

hard to say, it depends on your account/margin. I'm still BULL for short-term. It is just a spills over of PIIGS issues.
