06/03 – ETF Trading – DIA, DDM

Put DIA on your watch list today. Consider taking your first long position should the etf close lower today. Consider DDM for the leveraged trade.

DIA – Dow Diamonds seeks to provide investment results that, before expenses, generally correspond to the price and yield performance of the Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM.

DDM – ProShares Ultra Dow30 seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, that correspond to twice (200%) the daily performance of the Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM.

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 DIA are triggered when the closing price for DIA is higher than it’s 5 day moving average, or – for a potentially larger gain – when the RSI 2 is greater than 70. Follow these signals for trading DDM.

ETF Trading – USO, SCO, DIA, QQQQ

Oil continued to move higher yesterday and so did USO . Perhaps you took an initial short position. Short a second position at the end of the day should it close higher again. Otherwise, take your gains should the closing price move below it’s 5 day moving average.

As I mentioned yesterday, you can also short USO by taking a long position in SCO. SCO seeks to replicate, net of expenses, twice the inverse daily performance of the Dow Jones AIG Crude Oil Sub-Index.

I’ve posted the charts for DIA and QQQQ. Boy, this market sure looks overbought! Notice the high RSI(2) readings.

These trades are based on the strategies found in the book by Larry Connors: High Probability ETF Trading.
