money to the side line
The market showed a desire to return to a bull market, but I believe it will be a rough transition and will take a week or more before the transition happens. I pulled out of my ultra short ETF’s Tuesday with the market in flux, took the ETF profits and sit this out till the market takes a direction, aggressive investors can make some large profits right now with the down side of some large losses. The best bet is for the option players covering both direction it’s a win.

Shorting stocks to make a profit
This is the third week of a market down turn; I will post the return on the ETF’s I listed on the previous post. Tomorrow after close of business the results of the gains will be posted so far all are winners except for (2) losers. Another way to take profits in this type of market is to buy stocks on A %100 margin, buying undervalued stock with strong numbers and holding them
and shorting (cashing in) on a %15 loss or a %8 gain. You have to buy a basket of 10 to improve your odds of finding those that will go lower, and watch it daily for the ones that might go in the green, you dont make money on a rissing stock that you shorted. this is one those nice times when you make money using your brokers funds. You can find these by looking for stocks hitting new 52-week lows. Remember we have had 3 down markets this year so checking those periods will tell you about the rebound ability of the stock you are selecting.

half in cash
now is not the time to buy new stocks, give the market some time to work out the current roller coaster ride. Any stocks currently held should have a trailing stop of 10% draw down to preserve capital. most of what is performing well right now is ETF's with the following symbol's within their stock name ----ultsh--- or ----ultst---- example
(ticker symbol for ProShrsUltShR2K is SJH)
(ticker symbol for ProShrsUltShSC6 is SDD)
(ticker symbol for ProshrsUltSt500 is SDS) there are over several dozen of these type of ETF, now you get the Idea. these stocks do well when the rest of the market suffers. great place to pick up some fast short term gains when the market is in a down turn
