Once Again We Are Loaded For Bear

2/15/2009 7:01:47 PM

Hello Everybody

To learn more about my Fat Pitch ETF Advisory, please click here.

Trade Actions:

Buy SZK ( Ultra-Short Consumer Goods ) at 85.5 or better
Buy SDD ( Ultra-Short Small Cap ) @ the Market

Market Outlook/Potential Opportunities:

The Stock Market is at a very critical crossroad. My interpretation is the direction is going to be a hard down move. After this hard shakeout I would expect the market to set up a more tradable bottom. That being said I still need to calculate some good stops on these ultrashorts in case I am (wr. wrooo. wroooon. wrong) Boy that was hard to say. Those will be coming shortly if they are not listed already.

By the way somebody wrote me a tongue in check comment about how I could take profits when I only had one profitable position. Things changed in one week as we now have 5 profitable positions and a couple of them are about to explode higher. Entry into a position is not cut and dry. Sometimes going to the market works in your favor and sometimes it backfires. Limit orders usually work best with ETF's but sometimes you will miss a trade or two by using them. A good example is COW. I tried to recommend a short position last month on a limit order. We never got filled. We lost a great opportunity. That happens. But if I say go to the market, we might have to sit for a couple of weeks sweating out a losing position before it turns in our favor.
