    1. I don't understand what you mean by this are you looking for a drop and how low in your opinion?

    2. Not much yet Louis, just chop. High in May.

  2. For volatility April 14th was perfect. TVIX made the low April 14th.

    1. Yes, SPX is cooling off a bit. I don't think anything major is happening yet.

      I have dates for highs coming in later April and more importantly May.

  4. SC .. yes but you sold TVIX way to early as per your posts.

    aswell we didn't hear any updates on UCO since you bought at $1.63 before split ,

    1. Oil a little soft as we wait for the economy to reopen. When that happens demand for Oil will spike. We're going to get the opportunity to buy cheap Oil just before the reopening. The cheaper the better and will continue to build the position with time. For now it's a waiting game.

      Trump still needs to fill his tanks.

    2. Volatility popped. We have a $370 target on TVIX. But nothing major is happening with volatility yet.

  6. Extremely pleased with the price action because the market respected the turn date on April 14th.

    The market will likely continue to follow the next dates!

    ReplyDelete
  7. well since your buy of UCO its down over 40%
    I know nobody has magic wand but for the small time investor its a major hit

  9. In the 1970's the talk was all about "Peak Oil". Oil was running out they said. It was an Oil crisis.

    Now they tell us there the crisis is there too much oil!

    Oil getting nice and cheap!

    ReplyDelete
  10. correct but the buy of UCO at $ 1.63 so far lost over 60% of its value
    I know shouldn't have listened thats for sure
    UCO worst performing stock OIL that I can see for today

    ReplyDelete
  11. The math makes sense. We know a demand spike is coming for Oil. Which month is the question.

    Let's say we get into Oil at $10 it goes to $25. That's 150%.

    $5 to $25 that's 500%.

    The trade is coming....let's wait and watch closely.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Oil doubled off the low yesterday! Up 100%.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Next turn date is coming tomorrow.

    ReplyDelete
  14. yes but UCO still has a long way to go to recoup the loss at our buy at $ 1.63 pre-split ,,, so it needs to go over $35 to break even...

    ReplyDelete
  15. Let's see the turn day. Might be able to get some cheap. If these turn dates work well for Oil it'll be a money tree.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Tomorrow turn date for oil or spx

  17. Are looking to buy into the next TVIX rally?

  18. Good afternoon Everyone! In my work I was expecting 22/23rd April also as CIT (low) in SP500, but looks like it came 1 day early on the 21st. Let's see if we can get a dip tomorrow for better risk-reward long entry.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Could today actually be a high rather than a low on your turn date? Inquiring minds want to know.

  20. SC: what about gold and GDX? GDX is on the way to break up a big multy year resistance.. , il a good deal for this year in your opinion?

    1. Gold is trying to test near it's 2011 high. It's okay but better opportunity elsewhere.

  21. I think gdx drops down with the market

  22. April 14th was the most important date this month.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Low is due but not very pronounced for SPX. Next turn date April 27th.

    SPX likely choppy and rising well into May.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I have developed a strategy that looks quite lucrative. Will post the details shortly.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Notice how SPX collapsed. Low is due. It still obeys timing.

    ReplyDelete
  26. SC .. any hopes of UCO recovering since were down well over 50% on our initial buy

    ReplyDelete

    1. Yes, I have a plan for Oil. Don't be discouraged as there is more action in Oil than any other market.

  27. easy to say SC lol ... im down as mentioned 50% ,, yes would be nice to average down but with no extra $ to spare .. feels like its going to be awhile to even break even from a 50% loss at this point.

    1. Yes, May 13th and May 15th. Also May 19th which is Oil expiry.

  32. Normally after a large move in SPX it calms down for a period of time. This is what we are seeing.

    A lot of minor chop, but not a lot of movement. This is likely to continue into May at least for a few weeks.

    ReplyDelete
  33. SPX will make large moves again this year, but give it some time.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Volatility was more interesting. Off the April 14th turn TVIX jumped more than 50%. Now it has settled back again.

    ReplyDelete
  35. any updates on UCO? average down? we down 70%

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. No, I wouldn't average down.

      Trading Oil both long and short. It's the best market to trade currently.

      I have a plan for Oil with massive moves coming this year.

    1. The line is 2,927. 2,921 SPX was reached this morning. Very close.

      Yesterday was turn date. We saw a reversal today but next turn date is low this Friday or Monday.

      These turn dates every 3 to 5 days suggest chop rather than a major reversal just yet. It'll come though...

      Delete
  39. There we are! Pink has been hit SPX. We do have the white line just overhead at 3,000 which interestingly coincides with the 200 dma.

  45. The chop will frustrate and confuse traders, but SPX will fill out this high in May.

    ReplyDelete
  46. What is the date of high and what price level for spx

    ReplyDelete
  47. SPX fell into today's turn date low. Next date for high May 7th.

    ReplyDelete
  48. 3,050 SPX is an ideal target. SPX hit the pink line and reversed, but an overthrow to 3,050 could occur.

    From that level expect trend down into July 2,375.

    1. 3,050 SPX is the number we talked about a lot last year. Market has an uncanny ability to find these levels!

    1. SPX can retest the 2,900's May 7th high but could be declining to a May 13th low overall.

      I have another date for high May 21st. Let's see SPX 3,050.

    2. where do you see SPX for May 13th low?

  54. Expect TVIX drop to $150.

    ReplyDelete
  55. Oil surging higher with the reopening! June Oil up 400% off the lows.

    This was my point. At $160, at $100, at $60 everyone loved Oil and there was no real upside.

    At low prices we see huge percentage moves.

  58. Would like to get overall view. Do u still expect spx to make new lower lows of like 1k or lower or this is just a sideways correction for some time till covid is gone? Also what about bitcoin? As it is highly correlated to spx don’t you think it will go lower with it instead of making ath this or next year as u though?

    1. Bitcoin did break out of our Cup and Handle pattern to the upside. Has been very strong, but the $10,000 target has almost been reached so we'll observe.

    2. In my opinion this isn't about the Virus for SPX. There is one common denominator. Also, the US has one card left to play.

      Let me expand on this with long term Cycle.

  62. SC, are you going to take the TVIX trade for a S&P drop to 2770 or are you waiting for a bigger setup?

    ReplyDelete
  63. Interested in TVIX soon. It likes to decline into Friday closes.

    ReplyDelete
  64. SPX quite choppy for next 2 weeks. It is early for a big turn, but yes a high is due now May 13th low.

    ReplyDelete
  65. Or we can wait for the more important timing May 21st for a major turn.

  66. SC, the low for TVIX is $170 to $175 but how high do you think it will go? $500? $600? $700? Higher?

  73. May see some jitters on Oil here for several days. With the June contract nearing expiry May 19th paper traders probably exit early a few days. Oil in particular responds strongly to the turn dates and a low is due tomorrow.

    However expect a major high for Oil May 19th to 21st.

  85. SPX was still high yesterday morning. Our turn was due for a low so it had to drop in a hurry, and it did.

    Today is the turn date. SPX is getting close to the target price. Also watch May 15th New York reopening if we see SPX lower for another day or two.

And if you cannot find one, then do us all a favor and be quiet. you have sufficiently demonstrated to everyone the low life you are.

      You accuse me of not trading on my own. Well, I never asked anyone for anything. You, however, have gone around relentlessly pestering everyone on here about turn dates, coffee, uvxy and God knows what else.

      I will be the bigger person and end this here as unlike you I actually have a life and better things to do.
