I’ll always be a $FNMA fan. Long term play with day trading and swing trading opportunities. Know it’s mood!

[Scott Trades @scottradez]

Having multiple trading accounts for different styles of trading is best practice. Short term shorts and long swing trades or long term hold. Make it a priority to constantly adjust your playbook for edge. You can win playing both sides without the single portfolio stress. $USO

Wild how brokers BLOCK shorting $USO. I’ve been shorting A/H this entire trend and today is the only day it’s not allowed?

[Scott Trades @scottradez]

$USO $130

[Scott Trades @scottradez]

I’m prepared to see $130 again A/H $USO

$USO thoughts:
Patience paid more than speed here.
The traders who stayed disciplined and followed their plan had the edge.
My biggest takeaway: emotion ruins entries faster than bad analysis.

$USO Days like this is how I learned to short overnight.

Remember the market is a paradox.

I called E*TRADE, and they explained that the shares I shorted were borrowed from somebody and that when that occurred there was a crossover of orders and so instead of shorting because there’s no shares short they buy you in instead. $UGRO

[Scott Trades @scottradez]

Can anyone help explain how this happened? I shorted 100 shares of $UGRO yesterday. I bought to cover all 100 shares and I have record of it. This morning I was notified of a buy the cover of 25 shares for $13. This made me $300 so I sold instantly. What happened here?

@MeatballTrades My assessment is it needs to push passed resistance forcing short covers and then it’ll decline when people pile in thinking $200

[Scott Trades @scottradez]

I’ll short $USO, it’s about swing trading it short and only day trading long. Ill wait for new high then short the tests. Cover during flush and flip long for the day trade. It works well.
