Markets Blown the Fuck Out — Happy Thanks-Fucking-Giving
Give me your fucking stocks, I’m throwing them away. Unfortunately, I was out this morning and could not opine on this lovely market. I had a few hedges, one in SOXS because of white candles that never fail. I just sold it for a 5% gain.Mon Nov 19, 2018 1:26pm EST
Aside from NUGT and TMF — everything is directly in the shitter.
It just so happens, I was 95% long heading into today. I know that sounds wild and crazy, but I had some hedges and I really didn’t think the market would crash. I WAS WRONG. So now my options are simple: sell everything and wait, or wait and risk burning in the fires....MORE

I lost 4%, even with TMF, NUGT, and SOXS and lost the right to speculate in this high octane market.Since We are in the "t's", in addition to Tootsie Roll, Tesla is also up.
Here’s the important aspect of today’s market.
The retest the lowFAGS have won again. We’re retesting and it doesn’t bode well. FAANG is hitting new 52 week lows. For the session, negative breadth is 85%, only succored by strength in old man stocks like Tootsie Roll, Utes, and gold....MORE
