Hi Claude SO; the problem is ME I didn't listen my chart ! That could be my mantra at times :) You might like this prayer :) As far as investing in ETFs, it is not my stock type of choice... especially one that is 3X bull or bear. I think you missed my discussion on ETFs a while ago this is the conclusion of my brief study conclusions about ETFs There are two previous posts that you can also read by following the post backward I don't believe ETFs are not suitable for normal TA.... they are heavily manipulated so normal market action is controlled.... so TA is suspect IMHO. Kimberly apparently has a special software for ETFs you might ask her about it. UE

Hi Claude, Yes, you have to listen to your system, no matter what. It its the system that needs work, then tweak it. I started playing with FAS/FAZ when they first came out, and have now moved on to all the other ETF's. I trade with a 5 minute chart - I take the signals, but occasionally they do fail, not very often, but if I make a trade and it moves against me I get out, and I may end up buying again higher, but that means I have another verification that gives me more confidence. Use mental stops and good money management. Because the moves are exagerated, you can sometimes make 2 or more trades a day, so if the etf closes up 8%, I may end the day up 20% or more.
