Don't know if you are being facetious as you usually try to be but, XIV will be 45-50 bucks by Jan. 2017
Mark it.
=====================================
I'm confused.
You guys are leaving these cryptic messages that I don't understand.
You're bearish, correct?
XIV is the opposite of the VIX.
XIV goes up with the market.
So, if u think the market is going to be bearish for a while, why would you be buying XIV?
Shouldn't u b buying TVIX?

I'm saying buy the hell out of the dip for next 3-5 days using Xiv. He's just trying to get a rush by bashing that I bought some Xiv and that it will go lower for the next few days. you flip a coin 1000 times, it will come up approx. 50/50, but in the world of stocks, it's bragging rights when you guess something that can only go 2 directions. We will see who is right In a few months.

@ Shilllihs - Okay. Got it.
@ Mactherivverrat - Understandable. Both TVIX & UVXY were up 13% Friday when the market was down 200.
You guys are doing two different strategies - short term, short and longer term, long.
Thanks for the clarification.

Use of stops saved the day Shills. Out with just a loss of 2% rather than the whole 9 yards.
But anyway!

There was actually a lot of bearish sentiment out there. All the webinars I attended were "bearish". I almost went short. May regret later, tho'.
We'll see ...

Re: "bearish sentiment"
The other things is, nobody has "predictive" indicators. Everyone's indicators are "lagging" indicators. So, on Friday, when their lagging indicators are turning down, they'll tell you to "get out" (or don't buy), because the market's going lower. But, given that the technical indicators are "lagging", they are not really able to actually predict what will happen on Monday. (up 200pts .. who knew ahead of time w/ the Futures crashing Sunday nite and the Syria news?)
Honestly, I don't know how some of these people trade on their own advice.
I got one trial subscription where the guy was wrong so many times, it was frightening.
And, then, there were the people who were bullish on GOLD 3 weeks ago.
OMG! I don't know how these folks can stand themselves at the end of the day!
