I dumped Xiv at 107 and will buy back if it gets above 107.27
Letting it go through its gyrations.

So Kevin, has your system preformed the same since inception? Any fluctuations?

I think that thesis may be reasonable - volatility will rise ahead of the budget showdown on 8 Dec, which will be resolved by the usual "kick the can down the road" solution, but the promised tax reform will get stalled in Q4 and the markets will punish this perceived failure.
Or worse, tax reform passes ...

Tmv short in play today. Should slowly drop another 6% or so.

Long XIV and short TMV at the same time? Could be done.

They're trying to create indecision in the market to take bonds up a bit, shan't be much.

Got taken out of Xiv yesterday at 107.44, I scurried for a solution and got back in at 108.01.
Also went short Tmv 15.33 I think. Can't remember.
It's funny how tough it can be to make decisions on the fly when all the different parts are moving during trading hours, and how ez it is when the market closes. It's like you get amnesia. I did pretty well but always looking to improve.
