It's getting hard to find a place to put it back if I'm in a hurry when the cash position is growing.(12-14-2020, 04:47 PM)NilesMike Wrote: Bought UPRO @ Friday's close, selling on Friday's close.
This OEX week is historically the best week of the year to be long.
Out on the retest of prior high.
3% for 3 days and move on.

Sold a few new VSTO puts to replace the old ones expiring worthless again. This one will likely be on my list for our forum stock competition. I think it has a 50% year ahead of it. In the meantime the option premiums are fat.

I have been tracking/backtesting their buys for ARKK and ARKW, sure looks very promising. Many, many times their buys get a 10-20%+ bump in a very short time frame. I haven't gone live yet but will come the new year.

They have the spec traders attention. I am adding a few of the ARK ETFs and planned to do just as you suggest. No way I can properly research most of these. Some of these funds are primed for a big pullback so I am going slow on the actual ETF build.

Trying to test if the spec trades could be income trades while I wait. (no volume on the funds' puts)

It's inevitable at current valuations. And the gamblers will run right back after they lick their wounds. The individual stocks will randomly run higher most likely if ARK keeps buying them at all, which is likely IMO.(12-20-2020, 07:53 AM)fenders53 Wrote:Regarding the funds, I have resting orders 10% below the highs and and another order (twice the size) @ 15% off the highs.(12-19-2020, 11:00 AM)NilesMike Wrote: I have been tracking/backtesting their buys for ARKK and ARKW, sure looks very promising.

Bought TQQQ at the close. 98% probability it will be profitable within 5 days.

ETSY up another 5.5% this morning and a new all-time high.
Still just a $27B market cap company...
