Newsletter Excerpt

Two equally compelling set-ups, one in a leveraged ETF, one in a stock, we will always choose the leveraged ETF (our favorites being DIG/DUG, UYM/SMN, FAS/FAZ, URE/SRS) over stocks as we feel they are much more "true" -- that is fewer headfakes, more telegraphed, sustained moves.

However, big caveat: without set-ups around support/resistance these leveraged ETF's can destroy your capital more quickly than you can say Bernie Madoff. Don't touch these vehicles unless you're trading around clear multi-day/month support/resistance zones (which we will always provide in the newsletter).
