Hey Red, I wouldn’t be surprised to see the gangster market powers that be, find a way to get rid of the market shorting ETF’s before the big plunge. They love to keep retail from making any money.
Just how do you plan on shorting this pig? Every time I short it, I get taken to the woodshed. I shorted the market Friday by going long the vxx, thinking that the vix would pop for sure, even if the market didn’t sell off that much. Well, the vix popped 1.50 yesterday, but the vxx tanked! WTF? How can you win in this rigged game? I got the call correctly, but the only instrument I knew of to play the vix with was the vxx… and I still got creamed!
hi
I’m new to this page, I have been learning the forex for the past 2 years and this blog rings very true to my observation and gut feel to what’s going on.
Bearing in mind (no pun intended) the immanent big short what should I be doing to safeguard the meagre funds I have available to me?

REAL FAT!

That’s a FAT divergence.
Up, up and away… to 138.86 we go! (Total BS of course, but what’s new!).
The vix sure isn’t buying this move. I would expect some serious volatility heading into Berscumbag’s question and answer session.
Anybody like what they are seeing or are you all too busy selling and shorting. LOL!

Wouldn’t be surprised to see a pop & drop.
This is a problem, for the bulls, that is:
