Trade Alert - (UVXY) - May 11, 2015

Trade Alert

As a potentially profitable opportunity presents itself, John will send you an alert with specific trade information as to what should be bought, when to buy it, and at what price.

Alert

Trade Alert - (UVXY)- BUY

Buy the ProShares Ultra Vix Short-Term Futures ETF (UVXY) at $9.64 or best

Opening Trade

5-11-2015

Portfolio weighting: 10%

Number of Shares = 1,037 Shares

 

These shares should rise in price if the S&P 500 falls. They are a commonly used hedging vehicle used by hedge funds and long only investors to protect from downside exposure.

It is priced off of the Volatility Index (VIX), which is a measure of how much the S&P 500 is expected to move over the next 30 days. Buying the VIX around the $13 handle has been one of the most reliably profitable trades for the past year.

This is a short term trading vehicle only. Read the prospectus, and you will learn that over time, the issuers expect the value of this security to go to zero.

If the price of this spread has moved more than 5% by the time you receive this Trade Alert, don?t chase it. Wait for the next one. There are plenty of fish in the sea.

Here are the specific trades you need to execute this position:

Buy 1,037 (UVXY) shares at?????$9.64

UVXY 5-7-15

VIX 5-11-15
