Trade Alert - (TLT)- TAKE PROFITS
SELL the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (TLT) January, 2017 $125-$128 in-the-money vertical bear put spread at $2.95 or best
Closing Trade

expiration date: January 20, 2017
Portfolio weighting: 10%
Number of Contracts = 39 contracts
Nothing like going out with a bang in 2016.
I am going to use the big dump in bond prices this morning to take profits in my short position.
This gives us a 15.68%, or $1,560 profit in only 16 trading days. With 88.88% of the maximum potential profit in this trade in hand, the risk/reward is no longer for continuing.
Cash has more value right now, which will enable me to resell bonds in the next two-point rally, whenever that occurs.
If you can?t trade options, keep the ProShares UltraShort 20+ Year Treasury ETF (TBT) for a medium term view. Potentially, it could double over the next four years.
This means that 78.94% of my recent trades have been profitable. The last six consecutive trading months have been in the green, despite the hair raising swings in the market.
This was a bet that the iShares 20 Year+ Treasury Bond ETF (TLT) would not close above $125 by the January 20, 2017 expiration in 17 more trading days.
That works out to a yield on the 10-year Treasury bond of 2.30%, versus the current 2.55%.
One outcome of the presidential election is that I expect yields on the ten-year Treasury to rise to as high as 6.0% within four years, taking the iShares 20 Year+ Treasury Bond ETF (TLT) down $50 to as low as $70.
Low risk, high return, I love it!

Trade Alert - (FXE)- TAKE PROFITS
SELL the Currency Shares Euro Trust (FXE) January, 2017 $106-$109 in-the-money vertical bear put spread at $2.92 or best

Expiration Date: January 20, 2017

I like making a 13.62% profit in three trading days.
I bet you do too.
I am therefore taking profits on my position in the Currency Shares Euro Trust (FXE) January, 2017 $106-$109 in-the-money vertical bear put spread.
Since we added this position on Monday, the Euro has collapsed a stunning 3% against the dollar, a near record move.
Of course, it helped that I totally nailed the Fed?s move on interest rates yesterday, a hike of only 25 basis points.
Of course, the Euro is now totally toast against the greenback.
By coming out here, I get to dodge the risk of carrying the position for 24 more trading days until the January 20th expiration.
There may be some weird year end effects coming that temporarily juice the Euro, and I want to have the dry powder with which to resell it a couple of points higher.
The Euro is not going to cut through parity like a hot knife through butter. It may turn around here a bit, and could even rally before it makes the final break.
You know, nobody every got fired for taking profits, especially in December. Reaping 81.39% of the maximum potential profit in the trade in three days is good enough for me.
This was a bet that the Currency Shares Euro Trust (FXE) would trade at or below $106 by the January 20th expiration date then 27 trading days in the future.
Readers paid all the way up to $2.75 for this spread and it still made sense.
If you bought the ProShares Ultra Short Euro ETF (EUO), the 2X short Euro fund, take profits here too, as the recent move is so extreme.

There is an absolutely massive disparity going on between the monetary policies of Europe and the United States.
Europe is now committed to at least another year of quantitative easing (QE) to reflate their sagging economy. Brexit and the recent Italian referendum threw gasoline on the fire.
In the meantime, interest rates in the US are skyrocketing. Not only has QE been gone for more than two years, a massive round of fiscal stimulus is about to hit he economy.
And here is a basic rule for foreign currency trading: INTEREST RATE DIFFERENTIALS ARE FAR AND AWAY THE LARGEST DETERMINANT OF FOREIGN EXCHANGE RATES.
Rising US interest rates and falling European ones can only mean one thing: the dollar will rise and the Euro will fall.
Only last week, ECB President Mario Draghi said he would expand the types of securities eligible for QE, making it easier to expand the money supply. This was terrible news for the Euro.
This has been my position in the market for the last five months.
The trick is how to enter a trend that is well on its way.
Today, we got a gift in the form of profit taking on Euro shorts ahead of the Federal Reserve announcement on interest rates at 2:00 PM on Wednesday.
You also saw this in the collapse of gold this morning, another victim of higher US interest rates.
This is a bet that the Currency Shares Euro Trust (FXE) will trade at or below $106 by the January 20th expiration date in 27 trading days. Much of this will be over the holidays when volume shrinks and markets normally go to sleep.
You can pay all the way up to $2.75 for this spread and it still makes sense.
If you can?t trade options, then buy the ProShares Ultra Short Euro ETF (EUO), the 2X short Euro ETF.

I am going to use the monster 2 ? point plunge in the (TLT) this morning to book a profit in my short position.
We only have six trading days left until expiration, and we have already captured 91.42% of the maximum potential profit.
If you look at the numbers below you?ll see that our long went up and our short went down. That is what you want to do all day long.
If you have the ProShares UltraShort 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (TBT) keep it. Potentially it could double from here over the next four years.
This was a bet that the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (TLT) would not close above $127 by the December 16th expiration in 23 trading days.
That worked out to a yield on the 10-year Treasury bond of 2.15%, versus the yield then of 2.42%.
I?m sorry, but I just didn?t see a 25 basis point dip in yields going into three interest rates hikes by the Federal Reserve that start in December, and a possible tripling in bond yields over the next four years.
One outcome of the presidential election is that I expect yields on the ten-year Treasury to rise to as high as 6.0% within four years, taking the (TLT) down $50 to as low as $70.
Low risk, high return, I love it!
