I went with TVIX, because all Trump has to do is look presidential and it will scare the markets enough to be red---I hope!
I did short DRIP, small position. I assume you saw it in filters...do you think shorting DRIP is a better play than going long on UWTI?

No, I didn't see it in filters.
I do see some serious divergence on SH and I would not be surprised if that big short happens anytime
from tomorrow, to before the election. If both candidates are bought, they don't care who wins the election. I think it would be very smart to start buying options on Tvix
about 2-3 weeks out until mid December. One can really clean up.
Also want to say I've always had an aversion to options but if timed right I think they can really work.

No one will believe it but it's true.
I shorted drip in my c2 account but I never bought in real account. I don't know how I thought I bought it.
Just got confused. Anyway, Vix Money got devastated.

As I thought, odds were 60/40 that the market would continue to grind up, but the bear spike is looming.
Will prob. play oil until all this plays out. Or maybe stay long and get some options to hedge.
Meanwhile, I told my sexy Asian wife to get ready to go to Blufish for some bento box Sushi.
