- woodman: $TBT added even more of this on the move back up through VWAP this morning. Has had good follow through today as the move off the 21dEMA continues. Eventually, TBT will stop working, but I intend to stick with this (including trades around a core when it gets extended and up through the top BB on the daily) as long as it is behaving. Ride the wave.
- Cjauger: @woodman $TBT My largest position. I have very small $QID and $SDS
- woodman: @Cjauger $TBT $QID $SDS - my recent $SOXS backfired on me. I overstayed my welcome, got greedy frankly, and gave it all back. I know better than to do what I did with it.

$TBT -- Don’t overthink this. It’s working.

Forexpro: @Maxtrade $tbt
Hi, Maxtrade,
Hope you're doing well. Dan is, I would imagine, getting caffeinated at this hour, but the basic reason most market observers pay attention to the 10-year is because it's basically the key rate along the yield curve. T ... - Maxtrade: @Forexpro $tbt makes sense, but $tbt is ultrashort 20+ yr
- Forexpro: @Maxtrade $tbt Understood, Maxtrade, But that's effectively a leveraged bet on the bond market, and I think that the best handle on that market's overall directionality is offered by the 10-year note, rather than the eccentric 20-year or the less liquid, more volatile 30-year bond. FWIW; best of luck with it, long or short!

$TBT -- With rates continuing to rise, this inverse 20-year treasury ETF continues its upward march. Stop remains at 33.80.
Have a good day.

- DAN: @phgruver $SGML $LLY $TBT Well, he does change like the wind -- sometimes easterly and sometimes westerly. Frankly, it's understandable because he is on TV and in the media a lot. When you have so much exposure in the media, you say a LOT. You giv ...
- DAN: @Maxtrade $tbt The 10 year is the benchmark. The 20 year is generally tied to that. The yield curve is inverted now (2 vs. 10's), where the 10-year is lower than 2-year yield. The inverted curve has a 100% track record in forecasting a recession. But generally speaking, the yields run together. The 10 is just easier for me to follow..., but is definitely not the only way to track such things.
- DAN: @phgruver $tbt LOL. The weird thing is that I probably wake up earlier than most people on the east coast. This market is less than fun, and it's on my mind 24/7. So, when I wake up at 2, I'm typically out of bed (quietly) by 2:10. But I don't ch ...
- joelsg1: $TLT Self-annointed "Bond King" Gundlach yesterday reacting to #Fed said he has been buying Treasuries and will go large after 10-year yield over 4.25%, maybe another day or 2. I will be with him via $TLT. Suggest caution with long in tooth $TBT trade.

- woodman: $TBT - 21dEMA support.
- Cjauger: Powell's Q&A. No ambiguities, no signs that inflation is coming down, rates are going higher. Long $TBT, $SDS, $QID
- woodman: @Cjauger $TBT - I added to mine earlier. 21dEMA serving as support.
- Cjauger: @woodman $TBT Me too, doubled down after that Q&A.
- Cjauger: @woodman $TBT Going to be more patient this time. Learning from you
- woodman: @Cjauger $TBT - Good spot for you to do that. I've been more incremental in my adds. I've been adding in pieces since last week, so probably the same effect.

$TBT - 30.40. 33.80 stop. 10-year stalled at 4%. Still holding up ok. BAck at the 20-day MA

ProShares UltraShort 20+ Year Treasury ($TBT) is down by 3.8% this morning and pretty close to the loose stop at 33.80. You should be either down to a small position or completely out of this trade. It's something that I've mentioned several times o ... - wineinquirer: @sierramp $TLT $TBT Yes......as they are the inverse of one another.
- farview: @DAN $LLY $TWNK $TBT $SGML $MARA Anybody considering the $MARA options trade be aware earnings are Nov. 8th.
- DAN: @farview $LLY $TWNK $TBT $SGML $MARA It would really have to be an expiry of this Friday. I don't think it's a good idea to hold options (long or short) that expire just shortly after earnings. Too risky. Selling the Nov 4th $14 call could work. Net would be 12.85. Call is just around .45 cents though.
- Cjauger: $TBT bouncing on the 21 day sma. Stop at LOD
- woodman: @Cjauger $TBT - Fingers crossed bc I bought back and added of late. I suppose tomorrow could cause some grief, depending on how things work out.
- woodman: $TBT - This turned into a decent move today. I bought back and have been adding since mid/late last week. Added with more gusto this morning. A close above the 8dEMA would be nice.
- Tlluride: $tbt back into $tbt
- woodman: @Rjeletrik $TBT - I added back a little of what I sold up higher. Possibly finding support here around the 13/21dEMAs.
- vitoB: sneaky $TBT up 1.5% and $UUP close to 30....booo end of the month window dressing
- scottrades: @vitoB $TBT $UUP That's my thinking too.

rmacron: $TBT. @DAN
Dan: During the last week or so you made mention that you thought TBT would, although not necessarily in a straight line, continue to go up. In last nights (10-26) Strategy Session you mentioned that if you’re in this for the long ... - MmaxX: @rmacron $TBT I was curious about these same things on $TBT if we could get more detail on the stock and what would make it continue to rise or fall, for me it's so different than the normal growth stock company it's a bit hard to understand but I have been super impressed by its performance since added to the ATL. Maybe some extra coverage in a video. Thanks @Dan!
- DAN: @MmaxX $TBT Guys, please re-watch my video covering this. I explained the technical aspects of the stock. It's too long to repeat here. Just watch the video. I have no idea what will happen long term. I can't game the Fed, or how the 20+ year treasury will trade. I just know that it's been a monster trade and you've got to be taking some profits when a trade is up 30% in this brutal market. You focus on the chart first. The chart incorporates everything -- it has no opinion itself. I will be covering it again tomorrow; but Scott is going the SS tonight. Hope this helps.

DAN: ...
For example, if you took some of $TBT off the table last week, you're sitting pretty now. The stock has come down 11% from the high. Still up 15% from the 30.40 entry, but it was certainly prudent to be locking in some great gains on some of the p ... - Fung: @DAN $SGML $META $TBT It seems that the active trade list is not updating for several day.
- woodman: $TBT - As mentioned before, I wanted to see if this would fall back to the 13dEMA where I'd consider buying it back after selling it down on 10/21, 10/24 and 10/25. It's done so, but I have not pulled the trigger yet. Still watching it here.
- CrazyTrain: @woodman $TBT If it he;helps you... the Bank of Canada was expected to raise rates today by 75bps but only raised by 50bps, maybe this is a forecast of what the FED may do???

DAN: ...
$TBT -- You should have or be taking some profits here. Was up 30%. Still up 18%
$TWNK -- Still going. Up 8%
$LLY -- Up 7.5%
$SGML -- Up 19%
$HSY -- Looks like Phase 2 move.
$SARK -- Pulled back to the 50-day MA. This needs to hold here.
$CECE -- ... - sierramp: $TBT PB on the open to just above the 8D. I may be wrong but not getting back in until it is closer to the 8D and/or the 8D is closer to the 21D.
- woodman: @scottrades #Bitcoin - Keeping my eye on $TBT to add back the 75% of my shares I sold starting on 10/21. It just got too extended and begged for a pullback.
- MmaxX: I sold my $TBT on Friday when it was looking extended for a nice profit. Would it make sense to get back into it today with it 5.5% down with a stop at the 8 day exponential? Thanks for your thoughts :)
- woodman: @MmaxX $TBT - same here, I sold on 10/21 and 10/22 and even more (via a stop) this morning. As for buying back, I'm going to wait for now to see if it holds the 8dEMA or perhaps gives us a shot at the 13dEMA as it's done a few times on this relentless march upward. But there's always a chance I change my mind based on evolving conditions.
- MmaxX: @woodman $TBT makes sense, thanks
- woodman: @MmaxX $TBT - good sell, by the way.
