I’m holding it, though whether that’s a good idea is debatable. I figure as long as the war continues to deepen, oil will continue to bleed upwards, though. I should probably set a stop loss to protect myself in case it starts dropping sharply, though.Should I hold UCO or get out before close?
Right! My concern, and maybe my lack of knowlege, is that I thought it reset daily...so how would stop losses work in that case? If it closes at $190 and opens tomorrow at $180, how does that work if you set a $185 stop?I’m holding it, though whether that’s a good idea is debatable.

Your stop loss would get triggered at $180 in that case. $UCO gaps up and down a lot, so that’s definitely a risk. Keep in mind my cost basis is $118, so I’ve got a lot more room to play with here. It gapping down to $160 and me selling there would still leave me with a nice profit. If your cost basis is around what it is now, it’s more iffy. Mainly there’s the risk of a ceasefire being declared, which doesn’t seem imminent to me, but could really happen at anytime overnight (for us) without warning.Right!

For sure...I also got in around $120 earlier, but sold out around $155-$160. I just got back in earlier today when it dropped.Your stop loss would get triggered at $180 in that case. $UCO gaps up and down a lot, so that’s definitely a risk.

I bought some $COM yesterday. It’s an unleveraged broad basket of commodities that in theory shouldn’t be as volatile as any individual commodity, but if commodities continue to increase should provide decent returns without having as much downside risk (but at the same time it won’t go to the moon, either, hah). Of course, thats not to say it’s not risky, and I’m not a financial advisor. ?What's the best commodity play right now? Are there any recommended ETF's that are solid choices to get a solid diversity in the things that will moon?
Yeah, I haven’t added to my position since I bought in. I’m not sure about the risk/reward of buying at this point. There’s plenty of moon potential still, but there’s also a high bust potential. It’s really a gamble. I am holding, but I probably wouldn’t buy at this point personally. Just wish I bought more when I got in at $118. I bought a healthy chunk, but could’ve definitely had a larger position looking back.For sure...I also got in around $120 earlier, but sold out around $155-$160.

So who are we not fighting with. ?
We are fighting Evil. It's not defined by a country. The same evil is in ours as there are all those listed.China, Brazil, Venezuela, Iran, Syria, North Korea, Russia, and India look like they have formed a axis.
Thanks for the suggestion! Ive looked on etfdb and there are some that look interesting. I only trade on Fidelity, and they shut off the buy button on WEAT. I'm not happy AT ALLI bought some $COM yesterday.

I found DBC, which appears to be another diversified ETF as well.I bought some $COM yesterday.

Just MVHO, I think we are in for worse than a dump. I think we are so corrupted in the markets with the private central banks (the root of every single problem), politicians, Blackrock/Vanguard (who own EVERYTHING...literally), hedge funds, lobbyists, etc that certain powers will flush the system. Until the corruption is gone, we will be left with what "they" want us to have.Anyone think we are close to a major dump . Not a slow bleed but a true dump ?

It was Jimmy's fault. We're good tomorrow ?The fact that we didn't reverse today is concerning, particularly since the rip was sold so hard. Maybe we'll get some good news in the next day or two.
