02/16 – ETF Trading – USO, UCO

We’re patiently waiting for our etf exit signals to trigger. USO closed lower yesterday and is about as over-sold as it can get. Be patient, dear trader. We’re due for a correction and hopefully a winning trade.

Our exit signals are triggered when the closing price for USO is higher than it’s MA(5), or – for a potentially larger gain – when the RSI(2) is more than 70. We’re using the latter signal.

Exit the trade in UCO on the signals for USO.

All etf trades are at the market close. Please trade responsibly.

02/15 – ETF Trading – USO, UCO

We’re into a full trading position for USO (and/or UCO). We’ve scaled into three trading positions over the past several trading days.

USO closed lower yesterday and is over-sold (and due for a correction), having closed lower in 7 of the last 8 trading sessions. This is confirmed by the low RSI 2 as shown in the chart below.

Trading patience is required now and we’ll wait for the market to move higher from here. Our exit signals are triggered when the etf price is greater than it’s MA(5), or – for a potentially larger gain – when the RSI(2) is greater than 70. We’re using the latter.

Follow the signals for USO when trading UCO. All trades are at the market close. Please trade responsibly!
