Stock Market Today: February 5th - 9th

I know lol, market was all over the place, couldn't decide if it wanted to go up or down

 

Been playing the swings in TVIX last few days.

 

Are you hold overnight?
Scary if it will be gone like SVXY or XIV ...

 

Just a heads up:

Margin requirements for trading /ES futures has gone from $4950 to $5550 due to recent volatility....always trying to keep us small traders down.

that pullback from the 50 day on the SPX was like clockwork, im trying to be patient on buying here, was waiting for the low from Tuesday, but man idk.

 

Nope, but wish I had yesterday. That 20% gain would be a lot bigger right now.

 

budget battle is still going on....market is still selling into strength so far...

 

man this is fun as hell to watch, market is fighting to protect the low of the day, buying keeps coming in near the lows, will it break or will it bounce, lol.

 

haha yea, looks like the bear won, watching apple and labu again, getting very tempting to put some money down

 

another stock to watch

 

I still can't believe what I've been reading these past few days about all these volatility products. Derivatives created by greedy pigs with such low AUM creating this kind of havoc from recalibrating is insane.

Just another noose around the very neck of actual equities. It's the very anti-thesis of true price discovery. I wonder how much $$$ the SEC got paid to give their stamp of approval.

 

Wow another day of massive selloff Bonds yields seem to be moving a little lower too on the selloff from the stock markets

 

SEC is about as bad as the FDA....the company with the largest wallet wins every time

 

h pattern, tough to break lower - Shadowtrader always says

 

yup, buying coming in hard now, just sold my labu i bought earlier today.
