Thursday's Call.

The call is to be long tomorrow.

I will trade 70% emerging markets and 30% NDX.

I am going to try allocating a percentage of trading capital to both emerging markets and Domestic markets. Some days I may be short one and long another. It will be more difficult to trade but hopefully help returns.

  1. Hi yeah I was using you'r call's even if you didn't use $spx long/short for upro/spxu it worked good.But when you do use $rut or other's what are the ticker 's you use for long/short?

  2. Hi Reza, I mean that you can trade anything that tracks/correlates well with eem or the nasdaq 100. Such as EET or QLD.

  3. Hi anon, There are corresponding leveraged ETF's for most of the indexes I use...For the RUT you could use TZA/TNA. Just search Google for "leveraged etf" ...one caution is to make sure they trade with decent volume. I would consider 3x etf's pretty risky...If the system is hot then you will do well and conversely.

    also there are leveraged mutual funds from Direxion and Profunds....but these are best traded with an account held by these companies.
