Market Direction Portfolio Update – Understanding Using UltraShort ETFs

Nov 6, 2013 | Stock Market Outlook

This is a FullyInformed members Market Direction Portfolio trade alert. The market direction portfolio is doing well but my last trade may have been premature with the purchase of DXD shares. DXD as you recall is the ultra short DOW 2X ETF. Now a few days later the Dow looks to have broken through resistance. My shares have still not been stopped out. There are specific reasons to use the different UltraShort ETFs depending on the market condition itself. This article explains to members why I choose the different UltraShort ETFs for the market direction portfolio and why and when they are applied.
