08/03 – ETF Trading – USO, SCO

Oil closed higher yesterday, generating an etf shorting opportunity. Consider taking a short position in USO should the etf close higher today.

If you’re unable to short USO, consider taking the inverse etf – SCO. However, follow the etf trading signals for USO. SCO is a double inverse etf – please trade carefully.

USO – The United States Oil Fund, LP (“USO”) is a domestic exchange traded security designed to track the movements of light, sweet crude oil (“West Texas Intermediate”).

SCO – ProShares UltraShort DJ-UBS Crude Oil seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, that correspond to twice (200%) the inverse (opposite) of the daily performance of The Dow Jones—UBS Crude Oil Sub-IndexSM.

We may take up to 3 trading positions over the next couple of days. Our first position is 1/6 of our total trading amount. Our second position is 1/3 of our total trading amount. Our third trading position is 1/2 of our total trading amount. All trades are at the market close. Please trade responsibly.

Assuming we get into the trade, our exit signals (for both USO and SCO) are triggered when the closing price for USO is lower than it’s MA(5), or – for a potentially larger gain – when the RSI(2) is less than 30.
