For our newer VRA Members, if we recommend a position in either VRA or Parabolic Options portfolios that means we also own the position in our own VRA Portfolios. In addition to the questionable business practices in the Financial Publishing (FinPub) Industry (and frankly, flat-out scams), I’ll never understand advisory services that don’t buy their own recommendations. Do they believe in their own buy recs that little? As many have found out the hard way, as great as the 1st amendment is it has allowed charlatans to run wild in the world of FinPub. We also post every trade over the last decade, along with full buy/sell results…we believe all FinPubs should as well (found in your VRA Members Site). Transparency should be the norm.

VRA Letter: Panic Buying…and Why it Will Continue. Focus Melt-up Holdings; GLXY, TSLA, NVDA, TAO.

Good Monday morning. We’re beginning to witness a rare level of panic buying…pure melt-up action...yet as overbought as we may be (well into extreme OB on the VRA System) the bottom line is this market wants to keep going higher. To illustrate this extreme set-up, let’s take a look at the market leading semis (we own NVDA). We think this […]

VRA Letter: More Strong Jobs Data. Pre-Alerts on SMR & CWEB. No, Economic Growth Does NOT Cause Inflation.

Good Friday morning. Breaking: the jobs report for April is in and it’s another beat to the upside. 117,000 jobs were created, beating the estimate of 65,000, with private payrolls almost doubling previous estimates. The unemployment rate stays unchanged at 4.3%. For a comp, take a look north at our neighbor Canada, which just reported a miserable […]

VRA Letter: Alert: Raise Stop Loss on TQQQ. Broadening Action; Highly Bullish. Gold/Silver/MIners; This Move Could Be Special. Tesla; Slowly Then All at Once.

Good Thursday morning. Alert: raise your GTC stop loss order to sell TQQQ @ $70.50 (last: $71.78). We’ll continue raising our stop loss on TQQQ with the hope it never gets hit. As seen below, Nasdaq 100 has gone parabolic (10% above 200 dma)…the rubber band is fully stretched…and a stones throw away from EOBOS. The most extended of […]

VRA Alert: Bought GDXU

Good Wednesday morning. We bought GDXU @ $188.00.  You know our thoughts on PM’s/miners….this group should run for a while. We now have GDXU, VGZ, SNWGF and physical gold and silver, meaning we have a lot of exposure to one theme. However, if we’re right about our positioning in interest rate sensitive names, the rest of […]
