05/17 – ETF Trading – SPY, SSO, XLF, UYG

Good morning. I have a couple of etf trading ideas for today. We’ll take up to 3 trading positions.

Put SPY on your etf watch list. Take an initial position should this etf close lower today. For a leveraged trade, consider SSO.

Also, for a sector play, put XLF on your watch list. For the leveraged trade, consider UYG. Take an initial position should these close lower today.

SPY – The SPDR® S&P 500® ETF is a fund that, before expenses, generally corresponds to the price and yield performance of the S&P 500 Index.

SSO – ProShares Ultra S&P500 seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, that correspond to twice (200%) the daily performance of the S&P 500® Index.

XLF – The Financial Select Sector SPDR® Fund, before expenses, seeks to closely match the returns and characteristics of the Financial Select Sector Index.

UYG – ProShares Ultra Financials seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, that correspond to twice (200%) the daily performance of the Dow Jones U.S. Financials IndexSM.

All trades are at the market close. Please trade responsibly. These etfs are moving closer to their 200 day moving averages – trading can be a bit more erratic.

Join me every day as I offer new etf trading ideas for you to follow.

• The Pros and Cons of Investing in ETFs In last decade, specialty ETFs (Exchange Traded Funds) are probably the hottest thing to hit Wall Street since the rise of the discount brokers in the mid 1990s.

04/28 – ETF Trading – EWH, XLF, UYG, SPY, SSO

With yesterday’s market sell-off, we now have 3 trading positions in EWH and our first trading positions in XLF and/or UYG.

For EWH, we’ll just wait for our etf exit signals to trigger. Our exit signals are triggered when the etf price is greater than its MA(5), or – for a potentially larger gain – when the RSI(2) is greater than 70.

Scale into a second position should XLF and/or UYG move lower today. Or, exit the trade at the market close when the etf price is greater than its MA(5), or – for a potentially larger gain – when the RSI(2) is greater than 70.

Updated charts are posted below. All trades are at the market close. Please trade responsibly.

Put SPY on your etf watch list today. Take an initial trading position should SPY close lower today. For a leveraged trade, consider SSO.

SPY – The investment seeks to correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the S&P 500 Index.

SSO – The investment seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, which correspond to twice the daily performance of the S&P 500 index.
