Time to declare victory on yet another phenomenal trade, and that would be, yesterday's swing trade in Oil!
1. Not only did we just catch a 27% gain, in (2X leveraged) Ultra Bloomberg Crude Oil Bear $SCO.
2. But we also caught a 10% return trip, in the Ultra Bloomberg Crude Oil Bull $UCO
Mentioned this trade in a tweet last week:
Looks like I'm up 23.57% in my Oil short this morning 😅

Then again Yesterday:
Took a 27% profit this morning. If you've been paying attention, over the past few days, then you know where... 😅

How did I accomplish this Phenomenal (nearly 40%) swing trade?
1. I was trading commodities (oil) rather than Tech, or some other dead sector.
2. I didn't let on that I was short oil, until Friday. This kept me from being targeted by the hedge funds, or the Saudi Sheikhs, who follow me.
3. I stuck with the short side of this trade for nearly 3 weeks.
4. I had the help of the fake news was on my side, and the fast money clowns, at CNBC, and by that time I was already up quite a bit.
5. I waited until capitulation, on yet another Monday morning surprise, before taking profits
6. Lots of charting, and a little luck. Finding the pivot point on this trade, was not all that difficult.
7. Took profits, and moved on to the next trade, because after a couple big moves like this, you're likely going to see a lot of nothing - expecting choppy sideways consolidation, and perhaps even a retest of lows. Common sense dictates that if you missed the boat in Oil, then it's not worth chasing, after....
Yesterday was a BIG fake news day!

The Next Big Trade
I see a big trade coming, but as usual it's going to cost you $99.
This much I can tell you; it's a sector trade, and it's not in anything that's commodities driven.
Take Care, and have a happy Thanksgiving,
AA
