Sold my 25 shares of SDS at 77.62.

The market was lower for the first couple of hours of the day, but I was too late in seeing the reversal. I could have sold this in the morning for a nice little gain. Instead, I finally ahd to give up hope on a further decline and take my losses so I could move on.

Realized a loss of -$70.27, for a return of -3.51%.

Long 25 shares of SDS at 79.87. In case you don’t know, SDS is the Pro Shares Ultra Short S&P 500 ETF. You buy this because you think the market is headed lower.

I saw the market turning in the afternoon so I sold my long position (SSO) and bought the SDS to make money on the move down.

Buy, SDS
