09/02 – ETF Trading – IWM, TWM

IWM closed higher yesterday, generating an etf shorting opportunity based on our etf trading signals. Consider taking a short position in IWM should the etf close higher today.

If you’re unable to short IWM, consider trading the inverse etf – TWM. However, use the etf trading signals for IWM to trade TWM. TWM is a double inverse etf – please trade carefully.

IWM – The investment seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance of the Russell 2000 index.

TWM – The investment seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, which correspond to twice the inverse of the daily performance of the Russell 2000 index.

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. You could also take positions in a 20-30-50 ratio. All trades are at the market close. Please trade responsibly.

Assuming we get into the trade, our exit signals for IWM are triggered when the closing price for IWM is lower than it’s MA(5), or – for a potentially larger gain – when the RSI(2) is less than 30. Trade on TWM when these signals for IWM trigger.
