Boom
Get ready for blast off - if vix goes to 40 this bags - looking promising
Hey peeps - come on in - Could bag tomorrow !
Watching this carefully now. I am sure it doubles if Putin sends his troops in to the Ukraine....
I've had a limit trade buy waiting to be fulfilled on this all day (at 203p) and its still sat there. I can't get a quote either. What does that tell you ??
I see this not as an investment/speculation, but insurance in troubled times, portfolio protection. And the time we are in now is pretty interesting.
I use this as a balance to boosts. The rule with all these boosted shares has to be if you know its going down you have to sell and buy back lower. This thrives on the unknown so selling as it turns down before US open and buying back just before the close can save oodles. There is nothing more unknown that what might change overnight (US time) or over the weekend, and if you have +ve US boosts they will normally make up for any losses.
Lol I'm sooo badly down on VILX that if the price increase went on for a whole week like this I'd prob break even. (haven't done the actual numbers.) - but yes it can jump theoretically, seen it before.
Also re: Evergrande, a vaguely interesting read: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/dr-marco-metzler-403341163_insolvency-petition-on-evergrande-will-be-activity-6869615636763418624-jnkP/
What I love is the way they got all the "experts" out on Tuesday evening saying Wednesday is always up before stuff the turkeys day and Friday is always flat and even ion the face of a new variant which was known about at the time, they shoved the ixic and 500 up on Wednesday so they could gap the wotsits off it today. Scumbag manipulators.
Up nicely today. Last time we had a 5h1t storm it went from 2 to 80... I read the fund description and I think it is the futures of the futures so not what the vix is now but what [people think the vix itself is going to be in a months time... Thta's why it normally flatters to deceive. Anyway it was in auction first thing today - don't remember seeing that before and ...Anyway - BOOM !
yeah, VIX normal is ~40% up today....whereas this one is less than that up today, so it's a "bit" odd....
Boom on Monday - loaded up - QQQS 3ULS and 3UKS to be added...
It will move, evergrande may be bailed, their suppliers and sub contractors won't be, these things take time.
Boom
watching this lump of turd
VIX +9%
should this not bemoving?
should this dog turd of a product be up 2.25x ?
the Wisdom Tree providers need to be jailed
Sorry I'm just curious, but how's possible this ETF went 4,700,000 % up?!?! what isthis about?
Boom - just saying - get your boosted futures of the futures here for the highest beta short hedge bet - now !
I sold out on Friday at 0.7 with a nice profit, will buy back around 0.58
So finished 26.5 last Friday VILX 0.72 26.5 this Friday 0.66.... explanation -Holding this product for more than one day is likely to result in a return which is different to 2.25 times the return of the Benchmark over that holding period. This difference, called the ''Compounding Effect'', is caused by the product's daily leverage rebalancing, and is magnified by more leverage and longer holding periods. Compounding may have a positive or negative impact on the product's return, but tends to have a negative impact the higher the volatility of the Benchmark. You may trade this product on various stock exchanges at your own discretion. You may lose the full value of your initial investment, but you will not lose more than your initial investment. Be advised, the Benchmark tracks VIX futures contracts which can be expected to perform very differently from the “VIX” (CBOE Volatility Index). - So we will win bigger if this rises day on day... I think this is in for a majority of days as risers from now until the US election - we should win biggly here...
Post close US - now 26.82 which should be about .75. Intel crashing will hurt US with their trade war coming back. Next stop 8p - bust-tastic !
Vix 26.74 coming into close though SP500 holding flat down 1.3% - I conclude those in the know think this is no flash crash... Hold for gold - whatever this strange derrivative of a price of a metric of the ratio of future set trades - what a bizarre world we live in.
8pm vix 26.5 = price approx .72p
Btw the lowest ever value for VIXL was 0.29 just before the crash this year...
Panic in US as the inconvenient truth dawns that you need consumers with cash to have a vibrant economy. Vis back up to 26 - so if we could trade rght now I could cash in for profits on all my covers below about 0.62p. However Vix climb is exponential at the moment and they are absolutely right to panic - they've be blind to the obvious !
