Electric Slide Lower; Chess Moves
I just covered half of my TSLA short at $192.22 from my posted entry at $206.55 which can be found here, from last week. The stock is gapping down on some bad news last evening. But I believe it was ripe to come in anyway due to lower oil and previous upside momentum now in danger of going over the other side of the mountain. I moved my...

Into the Bell Adjustments; Chess Moves
I sold final piece of my TVIX long at $3.32 here instead of swinging it, from $3.00 entry posted earlier today. I am all out of volatility plays for now. I am also holding onto the other piece of my levered silver long, after taking partial profits this morning, due to the intraday consolidation seen on the SLV chart, below. Note the orderly...

Two Overlooked Charts Today
First, copper is also basically crashing, just as oil has been, to little fanfare. The first chart, below, of the daily timeframe for the cooper ETN indicates as much. Although "Dr. Copper" has not been a good market tell since about 2010, the violence of the selling is something worth noting, and another reason to not get too complacent...

Going After the Napoleon Complex; Chess Moves
First and foremost, I peeled off most of my TVIX long at $3.18, then $3.31 (announced on Stocktwits.com) from my $3.00 posted entry. I will let the final piece run in case volatility pops again tomorrow. Next, I went long TZA, the triple-levered short ETF for the Russell 2000 Index. The small caps house many biotechnology stocks, too. And the...

More Sniper Action; Chess Moves
Picking off moves here and there, I went long TVIX for a volatility trade at $3, with a stop-loss below $2.85. I may very well just day-trade this volatile volatility instrument, depending on how we close today. In addition, I stopped out of the final small piece of my JNUG long above $38, from the prior $35.59 entry to lock in the rest of...

Be a Battlefield Tactician; Chess Moves
I sold a piece of the USLV long at $24.70 from my $22.26 entry yesterday noted in this blog post . I am raising my protective stop-loss to my entry on the rest of the position. On the whole, I continue to be impressed with the action in the precious metals and miners complex. Still, it is wise to the big, fast gains when we have them because...

Tempted By the Forbidden Fruit
Going after the falling knife that is crude oil remains a tough trade, as USO was mildly green this morning and is now back to being down more than 1%. While I am tempted to go long UCO or even UWTI as levered-long crude ETFs, the daily chart for the USO (straight-up crude oil ETF) shows a steep but orderly decline lower. Typically, some type...

More Changes for the Better
The first susbstantive blog post for this website was back in early/mid-November here , where I described the subtle changes taking place in the precious metals and mining complex. While the road has been sloppy, which should have come as a surprise to no one, those changes for the better continue to take hold. My USLV long, the...
