Lol JP
If the market decides to dump, I think /PA goes with it. Short timing is not my strength.
If I could just get /ZB to rally to the BB40 I'd be a happy camper and it would be potentially a great shorting opportunity.
Editorial: Bonds confuse me. Everyone thinks this is an easy short and to a degree they are right. As the Fed raises rates, yields go up, bond prices fall. But what confuses me is if the market moves lower will that put a floor under bonds.
I guess that is why the call it trading. :)

The feds have to raise interest rates, 3 times in 2018. They are selling bonds and these bonds will command higher rates.
Raising the minimum wage and low unemployment will also lead to increase inflation.

@pthomas
I hear ya. I was up big on futures swing trades and sucking wind on options trades, now the tides have turned. I took a few days off and it all went to hell. Lol. So now I'm about flat overall. Not a great start but I'll get her yet. :)

For some reason JP getting a ratio on those in TOS is giving me an issue.

gmg, exactly. we will prevail but this market has been very choppy. I made some on DUST, and the chart still looks great for DUST, but every time I look for re entry it really craps the bed. SH still looks great, which tells me we will probably be heading down...but most days start out real green.

DGAZ...triggered long at $28.47(2-hr)...will have to close above this $29.28 to be considered a daily buy signal, while waiting scalp long.
