Doesn't know what to do, If 4400 doesn't hold.........

Well, the Dow eeked out a Friday gain. Let's see if the turbulence continues next week.

[mister md] 18/8/2023 10:31

So much for my markets go up on Fridays theory .. first signs of panic emerging ?

[waterloo01] 17/8/2023 19:58

Still too orderly to have a big spike in vix

[mister md] 17/8/2023 19:56

Wish I'd held on a bit longer now ...

[waterloo01] 17/8/2023 19:33

It's all fine judgement calls and rarely wrong to take a profit on VILX

[mister md] 17/8/2023 18:46

Happy to have had a couple of profitable trades here over last fortnight - I'm cautious as I know how quickly this can drop in steady/rising markets.
Ready to jump back in at next opportunity, just felt that tomorrow (Friday) could be an up day for markets ...

[waterloo01] 17/8/2023 18:33

Mini rallies are still being sold into. Nerves? Still aboard but position dwarfed by longs, so just eases any pain (and gain)

[mister md] 17/8/2023 11:12

Chickened out and closed for a small profit this time.

[mister md] 17/8/2023 08:54

VIX crosses 17

[mister md] 16/8/2023 18:25

Mini rallies being sold into.
But no panic selling ... yet ...

I wish I'd gone for the Yang a few weeks ago, but Hargreaves don't seem to trade it. Does anyone know an instrument for shorting China?

[mister md] 15/8/2023 20:27

Also re-entered today for a quickie trade. Is Vix 20+ likely again ?

[waterloo01] 15/8/2023 17:58

Added this AM. I will take some profits this time out. Just a question of when.

[mister md] 15/8/2023 15:16

Nice little move.

[mister md] 14/8/2023 18:14

This Monday or next ;-)

[zcaprd7] 11/8/2023 14:58

Back in for a black Monday event!

[waterloo01] 10/8/2023 16:58

A profit is a profit and that's not easy with VILX. Like a true gambler, I've left it to run. Always hoping to catch a 100% day or two!

[nick2412] 10/8/2023 15:47

Took small beginner's luck profits at 5.165p. Oddly neither the buy or the sell trade shows in advfn's list of trades.

[nick2412] 10/8/2023 15:22

Had another dabble at 4.845 but reluctant to hold overnight until there are clear signs that the S&P trend is reversed.

[waterloo01] 09/8/2023 19:31

nope. not this cycle.

[waterloo01] 09/8/2023 17:23

Given the gains on most markets this AM the reversal from 4500 on the S&P `might` prove interesting. I didn't reduce yesterday at 6.4, but did add a few after the US opened.

It would be nice to be right on vix at least once. I mean a clock is right at least twice without trying.

[zcaprd7] 09/8/2023 09:05

Indeed, normal service resumes...

[waterloo01] 08/8/2023 16:35

A bit of movement today. 5.5 - 6.4. I should probably take some profits.
