All about RSW and shorting EWJ the past two weeks. Although I wouldn't hop on EWJ now. RSW is a good buy friday late, then sell Wednesday at close...

@cantcallit he is talking about stocks (or ETFs as I'm stating them). When you short sell you basically bet the stock will go down.

Second time in the past 12 months this has made me a fortune

What made you borrow the gap thursday?

Even the institutions didn't move...that's the only way you could have made 'a fortune' and not to mention the amount you would have had to have borrowed with ($30+ shareas take a nice chunk to profit on, especially the vix)....assuming this is when you punched the ticket?

I thought it was fun watching the FAS/FAZ fluctuations when I was playing with those leveraged ETFs a couple years back....this Netflix is amazing

Aside from hopping on Ford @1.03 and then again at $2.25, Wells Fargo at $10 and shorting that SpongeTech scam....this is the best ride.

Lost on CTIC and Evergreen Solar along the way and sold Citi too fukkin early....but still....loving this bounce back the last couple years.
