Here's a sobering thought: a long XIV position is up 30.5% ytd. There may be something to going long XIV during periods of contango and VXX during backwardation.
Unless there is a late afternoon sell off with some volume I am probably going to cut my losses...
Today's move confirms Fridays close above the 50 MA. If we get some selling below 1632.75 I may consider staying in for now, but there doesn't seem to be any signs of a downturn any time soon...
Maybe "hopium" is more powerful than TA...
All we are doing now is waiting for a black swan event...
No, not fun at all...
ReplyDeleteI hope we can make even recover to even soon :)
Have a great week-end!!
