Inversely, throw Tvix in the filter. When Tvix encroaches, lower line of bollinger(10) when under Acc. Band(21), you tend to get a bounce. Pretty accurate.

shillihs, what % of your portfolio is in XIV on average? I think you said you hold onto some continuously.

That's a good trade but I've taken it off do to being wishy washy and market seems frothy.
I've been in Ugaz, Uco, Ung and about to go long Tvix.

You can hold 20-25% Xiv through the correction and buy in 25% increments at key levels on the way down,
or 75% in one swoop at a perceived bottom. You will always have some skin in the game
in case you're wrong. BB. and Acc. B. are good for this.

good deal. I do think it is frothy. on my filters that pull up weak etf's, the ones that come up are vix related. gonna wait and buy in xiv as you suggest.

This strategy should only be used in a an up trending market.
I bought a little Tvix.

Good job Kevin. If you add this to C2, maybe you can grandfather or special price all SF
members in at $19 a month.

I'm done with C2 - more focused on personal trading than marketing. Given the pricing and challenges with keeping subscribers for more than a few months, it is not really worth the time and effort that one puts in.

Looking for a XIV reversion to the Weekly Acc.B(21) mid band sometime in the next 2 weeks.
How long can this really go on. Can't be long now. If candle goes red, I think it's on.

Here's my thought - volatility is mean-reverting, but LACK of volatility is not. Or at least not at the same rate. I have been long XIV since 11/22 (in at $42ish) and added to my positions at $50. Still holding back a large majority of my capital, which in retrospect was stupid.
I will stay pat until the contango drops below 5%, and exit then. Will re-enter when contango is above 5% and the VXV contango is lower than the VIX contango (confirmation signal). Good luck.
