  • joelsg1: $TNA $TQQQ Took profits early in all index trades, even a small profit in Schwab glitch trades from yesterday, not waiting for them to bust those.
  • joelsg1: @joelsg1 $GLD Also out of $Z call trade for small loss, trimmed profitable $TQQQ next week's calls (I think). Trimmed profitable $TNA calls too.
  • bigbartabs: @champ $TNA #sectors #Green ... I continue to hold full positions in $UDOW $SPXL $TQQQ $TNA. 4 stairways to heaven.
  • champ: @bigbartabs $TNA $UDOW $SPXL $TQQQ #sectors #Green...I just double-up on $TNA and I'm also holding $UPRO...so with these 2-ETF's, I'm holding 2500 position.
  • bigbartabs: @champ $TNA $UDOW $SPXL $TQQQ $UPRO #sectors #Green ... the major indexes came back from Christmas even stronger. We'll see what happens toward the end of the week... and into next week. Could be when a rest comes.
  • champ: @bigbartabs $TNA $UDOW $SPXL $TQQQ $UPRO #sectors #Green....Momentum is building, however never know what is going to happen, however with all of this new #momentum that is going on, this could even continue for a few more weeks, new Investors are moving in daily....... ....and that should continue and without any New negative reasons.. to take profits, investors will hold and watch, all the New-$$$$ that is moving-in.... ....and I believe what I'm seeing.
  • joelsg1: $TQQQ Back in and added.
  • Timothyja38: @joelsg1 $TQQQ yesterday was ex dividend date you may see some more downside today. i want to get an entry as well. lol
  • natural: @joelsg1 $TQQQ Are you targeting any specific calls for $TQQQ?
  • joelsg1: @Timothyja38 $TQQQ I show 12/18 as ex-div date on the $QQQs. $TQQQ of course is the 3x leveraged, in for the Santa rally with 1/5 $50 calls.
  • joelsg1: @natural $TQQQ 1/5 $50s.
  • natural: @joelsg1 $TQQQ Great minds, they say. I'm with ya
  • Timothyja38: @Timothyja38 $TQQQ not a bad strike to have but proshares.com shows 12/20. I purchased sqqq and the qqq got a crazy pullback yesterday.
  • joelsg1: $TQQQ $TNA Both underlying indexes off the 8d, longs working. You better watch out You better not cry You better not pout I'm telling you why, Santa Claus is coming to town.
  • Nepenthe: @bigbartabs $TNA Been stalking you. I missed the TNA and UDOW, but have healthy positions in $TQQQ, $SPXL, $LABU (trimmed some this morning) and your old favorite from a few years back when you bought around Christmas, $SOXL. Your insights into these put me on a healthier financial path, for which I'm very grateful, and one of these days you'll get that beer and burger. Cheers.
  • bigbartabs: @Nepenthe $TNA $TQQQ $SPXL $LABU $SOXL ... glad you are doing well with the index 3x ETFs. At the present, I'm only in the 4 index ETFs. Mainly because when the entire market is on fire, why not just pile into the indexes with bigger money... rather than trying to pick and choose sectors that we wouldn't put nearly as much money as indexes anyway. I found years ago that if I just stick to my knitting, and concentrate on the indexes with bigger wagers... and watch those wagers closely... I do much better than have a ton of single tickers. All those tickers take time to manage... and that can burn you trying to juggle it all when we have markets like we have now. Drives a man to drink... (during market hours! :)
  • Nepenthe: @bigbartabs $TNA $TQQQ $SPXL $LABU $SOXL I don't really need an impetus to drive me to drink; I do fine on my own in that department, even during market hours, which I extend to the nightly strategy session with the requisite libation. But, yes, I agree with your approach. For years I floundered with many tickers and little to show for them until one day while sipping wine at Nepenthe's I read your post on the subject of beating the S&P, and realized I wasn't, and that I'd have to change my direction. Especially at my age--70 now--why waste valuable time with little reward. Anyway, there you have it. Cheers
  • bigbartabs: @Nepenthe $TNA $TQQQ $SPXL $LABU $SOXL ... roger that good buddy. Where the hell did the time go? You got me by a year!
  • champ: $SSO $UPRO $TNA $TQQQ...all are HOD...Giddy-up with 70 minutes left before the close, might continue.
  • Motorman:
  • joelsg1: $TQQQ Out of remnants of today's $43.50 calls for loss, but up overall on the trade past few weeks in varying forms. Would have actually closed these profitably yesterday but Schwab Street Smart Edge froze early and by the time I got orders in 15% drop, then I stewed about that and blew the trade. Another lesson, hopefully learned.
  • bigbartabs: $NDx $QQQ $TQQQ ... now a lower week
  • bigbartabs: @oldtimer $FNGS $FNGU ... I always use 1x ETFs to trigger buys and sells of their 3x. Knowing that the 3x ETFs are the tail that gets wagged by the 1x dog... I ignore 3x charts. If the 1x is ready for a buy or sell... that's all iti take for me to ...
  • Nepenthe: @bigbartabs $FNGS $FNGU $NDX $QQQ $TQQQ Very wise words, and from which I've mightily learned. Based on your theories, my entire portfolio has changed from many to but a few stocks, and mostly 3x's based on the 1x. As you once mentioned, if you're not beating the S&P or Nasdaq, why bother? And I realized, I wasn't. Cheers, and I hope all's well and pleasant in Shingle Springs this morning. By the way, and off topic, we were in EDH recently and I couldn't believe the growth there. It doesn't stop, and White Rock is now a freeway. Amazing!
  • bigbartabs: @Nepenthe $FNGS $FNGU $NDX $QQQ $TQQQ ... oh, my God! Folsom / El Dorado Hills is now little San Francisco. When I was 28, and bought our Shingle Springs property in 1982... you couldn't even see Folsom north of the 50 Freeway. Absolutely nothing north or south as you drove up the hill. But I guess that's the way it works... us old guys recollect the good old days... all the best buddy...
  • joelsg1: @bigbartabs $FNGS $FNGU $NDX $QQQ $TQQQ Agree. Been off $FNGU (sadly) due to those 2 Chinese components $BABA and $BIDU, riding $TQQQ with 1 or 2 week just otm cheap calls, trimmed this am for near double on Friday's $43.50s and holding $44s.
  • champ: Watch for stock Entries......$SPY is up $00.30.....$TNA is up $00.72....$NAIL is up $2.35....$TQQQ is up $00.06 ....and if this Bounce this morning.. is going to continue, should be getting close to some Entries.....and $TSLA is only up $00.12 now, starting to look better, after this first move this morning fell back, as expected.
  • oldtimer: @bigbartabs $FNGS $FNGU $NDX $QQQ $TQQQ - yes . . thank you again for your insight
  • champ: $TQQQ $SSO $UPRO $TNA $GDX $NUGT.....nothing really wrong, just Traders at work.
  • joelsg1: $TQQQ Turnaround Tues., long.
  • joelsg1: $TQQQ First 15 min crazy volatile/busy, not enough fingers for snap trims, but now over and far more slowly adding back.
  • bigbartabs: @Docoof $NVDA ... here's the thing to consider when buying and selling single stocks... can I get the same chart trajectory with less risk, than piling into a single stock? In the case of NVDA, there was (and very often is). Look at a daily chart ...
  • joelsg1: $TQQQ Back in next Friday's $44 calls, effectively rolling up 43.50s trimmed late yesterday.
  • joelsg1: $TQQQ Another 12/1 $43.50 call add tranche at $QQQ vwap.
  • joelsg1: @Docoof $QQQ Loading up $TQQQ 12/1 $43.50-44 calls. LWish trade.
  • joelsg1: $TQQQ Busy morning, added.
  • joelsg1: $TQQQ Added.
  • champ: @joelsg1 $TQQQ....I'm also holding, a large position and today just might be the Day for a zig-zag-swing....into the End of the Year. .....could be #Swing-Day, I think....... however will find that out later, I hope. LOL
  • joelsg1: @champ $TQQQ #Swing-Day Playing next week's calls, actually prefer $FNGU now that the 2 China components working, but no options there.
  • Docoof: @champ $TQQQ #Swing-Day Same for me, for the most part. @joelsg1 LW — Impressive.
  • champ: $TQQQ...huge volume spike on the 5-minute charts, over 1.8 million shares so far....large players moving in.
  • joelsg1: @joelsg1 $TQQQ #Swing-Day Boom :)
  • joelsg1: @champ $TQQQ That was me :)
  • champ: $TQQQ $SSO $UPRO $TNA....looks like a Buy program kicked-in on that 5-minute chart......
  • champ: @joelsg1 $TQQQ ...that was a positive sign, a real nice #confidence builder for Swing-buyers.....and I added a large $UPRO position.......
  • joelsg1: $TQQQ Trimming some 12/1 $43.50 calls for 50% profit.
  • champ: #Day-trades......$UPRO $SSO $TQQQ $TNA $MDY $NAIL....its been over 3 hours now and the Markets should settle down, with less zig-zags....after the first wave of Traders, they took some of their profits off........and now it might be Giddy-up, for the next Slow move....... ....I'm only Watching, only EyeBalling my stops, more or less Trailing these ETF's, I'm just Watching the zig-zags......with No-Stops in place, for Now...... $DJI.. $COMPX and the $SPX....... .....I'm also watching my stock swings.......
  • champ: $TQQQ $UPRO $SSO $MDY......starting to zig-zag.
  • champ: @bigreek42 $qqq....Yes and the $TQQQ is up around $30 or around $10, off of that low.
  • Docoof: @champ $TQQQ —$TQQQ One stock acct. My only position since the end of October. 💪💥
  • bigreek42: @champ $qqq $TQQQ pretty amazing move
  • champ: ...
    ....however I took full profits on these bounce-Day-trades....$TQQQ $URPO $SSO $SOXL $INTC $EXPE $MSFT $HLF $TSLA $HSY $ULTA....and I hope I can add back on Monday.....
    ....and I'm sorry to say, that I missed all the others, I thought that I was too ...
  • champ: @Docoof $TQQQ....#Good-Work and I wish that I could say that.
  • champ: $UPRO..at around $42.00 and $TQQQ is at around $37.00....and it sure looks like the Markets are sitting-up for a nice continuations move higher, before the close...... ....because if there are any shorts left, they will or should start to cover their positions before the close........ ....and also....both Traders and Investors should start to move more $$$ into the Markets.... because they sure don't want to #miss-this-move...... ....and as always, I expect zig-zags, as the Markets move-up the Wall of Worry.
  • champ: $TQQQ $SSO....for now the futures are looking positive and all of my swings are up nicely in the PM.....and they just might continue.
  • champ: $TQQQ $SSO $SPY $UPRO $XOP $MDY ...these ETF's are HOD.
  • champ: $TQQQ is also HOD.
  • champ: @bigbartabs $DJI $SPX $NDX $RUT....$DIA $SPY $TQQQ $IWM....
  • champ: $SSO $TQQQ...I took full profits in both...because of the PayRoll report in the morning.
  • Docoof: @champ $SSO $TQQQ I forgot about that. Thanks for the reminder.
  • joelsg1: $TQQQ Back in day trading Friday's $33s, but tightly as Fed looms.
  • champ: $SSO $TQQQ $XOP ...I'm holding these ETF's and I have been Building tis morning.
  • Matt0311: @champ $SSO $TQQQ $XOP sometimes I see you put a trailing stop at positions, any rule of thumb how much the trailing amount is, percentage or absolute?
  • joelsg1: @joelsg1 $TQQQ And now out for 15% profit. Expect to day trade this all day.
  • champ: @Matt0311 $SSO $TQQQ $XOP....For now, this is how I'm working...because this is #FOMC-day ...I don't have any stops on these ETF's, because they are dancing around, zig-zagging....... ....I'm just watching...is all I'm doing, watching the Sectors and the Markets....... ....and I had nice entry-timings, so I should be OK....until 14:00 ET, and that is the FOMC timing and then Powell will start his News Briefing at 14:30....... My eyes are in play today....I'm #eyeballing.......and I will harvest some profits at some point.....and I might even take down positions. Good Luck!
  • champ: $TQQQ....took profits.
  • champ: $TQQQ....back-in at $33.47.....
  • joelsg1: @champ $TQQQ It's interesting, the $QQQ has daily expiration options for day trading at much more volume than $TQQQ, but if you're going to play this risk, makes more sense to me to go with the faster moving triple leveraged $TQQQ, but have to trade it closely almost to the exclusion of everything else.
  • champ: @joelsg1........I have the $TQQQ...on the 5-minute daily chart.... .....and I'm going to try to Hold.....and I'm using that chart for all of my trades.....I have them all lined-up. LOL
  • champ: $SSO $TQQQ $XOP ...as of Now....it looks like I will be swinging positions in these ETF's.
  • champ: Because the Markets had a decent #FOMC-day, I guess, we would have to expect a bounce in the morning, however the Markets never does what is expected....but maybe this time it will. ~~~ And I'm swinging risk again, with these Hope-trades, after taking some profits off, so I have swing-insurance on these trades ...$SSO $TQQQ $XOP $CZR $INTC $STNG.
  • joelsg1: $TQQQ Back in the sandbox for a st seasonal trade, Friday's $32 calls.
  • joelsg1: @joelsg1 $TQQQ Out for Pumpkin money, no need to swing.
  • champ: $DJI $COMPX $TQQQ $SPY. $SSO.....on #Market-turns like this....it is possible that we could see the Markets #close on or very near HOD...... ...and as we all know, just never know for sure, how strong the close is going to be, however it should be strong.
  • champ: $TQQQ at $34.58...I had entry for a Day-trade.
  • joelsg1: $TQQQ In before the big dogs report using Friday's $35 calls.
  • champ: $TQQQ ...I took profits off on this Trade.
  • Docoof: @champ $TQQQ I may be posting less, but I’m certainly not watching less. Especially your posts. So please keep doing exactly what you always do: Sharing your thoughts on the overall market, suggesting possible entries, suggesting whether it’s time to be in an inverse ETF and so on, etc., etc. I appreciate it and wanted to mention it once again. Thanks, champ.
  • vitoB: $TQQQ bounce dtrade
  • vitoB: @vitoB $TQQQ done ..holding this gain like it’s a newborn
  • Docoof: $NU Launched. New 1-yr high. (Np in this. Still mostly in $TQQQ and just holding.)
  • joelsg1: @Docoof $NU $TQQQ $TQQQ Ouch, for past week.
  • Patrylak: @scottrades $TQQQ. What level would you set a stop for for a swing trade not trying to get stopped out for seasonally favorable time.
  • scottrades: @Patrylak $TQQQ Great question. On $COST while I can't predict that it won't have volatility, so it then depends on how often you want to manage it.

    For a longer term hold, as in..."I want to hold it for the end of the year and see how that go ...
  • jdemos: @Patrylak $TQQQ Below $36.60, I'd be out waiting to see see what happens around the $33.50 level. If that can't hold, hang on.... If this is a new entry, I would play a little tight knowing you can get back in. I'm watching for this to clear the 50day, then clear resistance at $40. I'm in about half a position now, but won't ride it down.
  • joelsg1: $TQQQ First trim up 50% posted Friday $38 calls.
  • champ: $TQQQ $UPRO ...both are HOD/trailing....and both look real strong.
  • joelsg1: $TQQQ Up 75% on $38 calls , so 2nd trim.
  • Docoof: @joelsg1 $TQQQ Continue to hold the stock, no trims so far. [Just for the record: On 10/3, I posted that I was holding and would continue to hold barring a breach of the 9/27 low. (A post in which I asked Scott for his input.) On that day my position had dipped below break-even.)]
  • joelsg1: @Docoof $TQQQ Nothing wrong with taking a profit, esp. in this one. View this as strictly a momo play, so out asap when momo changes or I'm wrong in first instance. Out completely now with a nice profit on whole position.
  • Docoof: @joelsg1 $TQQQ I agree. My little addendum was in no way a criticism or even directed at you. It was simply to clarify that I didn’t come up with a position out of thin air, but have been posting about it in the one I mentioned as well as addit ...
  • joelsg1: @Docoof $TQQQ Happy to be of assistance, and reminds me too.
  • champ: @Docoof $TQQQ ...... I started posting and trading the #zig-zags on this ETF on 10/03 and so did you.... and I'm also in $UPRO.
  • joelsg1: $TQQQ Been busy today, but $QQQ filed the gap from a couple weeks ago and holding, so playing this one, first Friday's 37 calls now rolled profitably to 38s.
  • joelsg1: $TQQQ I'll play.
  • DavidK: @joelsg1 $TQQQ $$QQQ bought 20 Oct 10- 360 calls @2.45 this am . Now at 3.83 . I do have a bear out spread on $AAPL OCT 20 expiration that is not working .
  • Docoof: @joelsg1 $TQQQ I’m still in $TQQQ because the QQQs didn’t violate the 9/27 low Scott discussed on several occasions. That article you posted was revealing. The big takeaway, for me, was that you absolutely should not hold $TQQQ when they ...
  • joelsg1: @Docoof $TQQQ $QQQ Wow, impressive, my intended point was only to emphasize the decay factor of holding this triple leveraged etf for too long. For example, I was playing $TQQQ today using today's $36 calls, out now for a double because it's Friday, and a double!. Definitely only for following trend, when it breaks or you hit a pre-planned level, out. Can always and easily get back in.
  • joelsg1: @joelsg1 $TQQQ $QQQ And I don't like those $TSLA price cuts which are destroying estimates going forward, and $TSLA is a big component of $QQQ.
  • champ: $TQQQ $FANG $PR $CPA $BJ $GTLS.....#new-positions this morning, with real nice Entries....and I'm Trailing all.
