Either the market is shaking out buyers or shaking out sellers. In each case, traders who have chased the momentum of the day have found themselves clobbered the next day. Those who have patiently waited at resistance or, like me, patiently waited for entries ahead of an oversold bounce, have received the pay-offs. This kind of churn cannot continue because at some point traders start to anticipate and that anticipation forces new patterns to emerge. <\/p>\n<p>I was following the action as best I could (I did not have stock price alerts handy). When I noticed the VIX creeping upward, I got ready. THIS time, there was no magical end to the surge at the previous high. Once the VIX broke higher, I bought a new tranche of SSO call options. I did not get aggressive because the new bar to hit is a high higher than the last: 21.4 on February 3rd. I bought the small amount &#8220;just in case&#8221; sellers and fear fail to push the VIX to or past the next point of aggressive oversold trading. I also bought a small amount of SSO shares as I am getting a stronger feeling that getting through this oversold period may require a good helping of patience.<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_24936\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24936\" style=\"width: 540px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/141009_VIX.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/141009_VIX.png\" alt=\"Does fear have enough fuel to set a fresh 2014 high?\" width=\"550\" height=\"375\" class=\"size-full wp-image-24936\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/141009_VIX.png 550w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/141009_VIX-300x204.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24936\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Does fear have enough fuel to set a fresh 2014 high?<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p>I would have added to my position of ProShares Ultra VIX Short-Term Futures (UVXY), but I did not get the discount I was looking for despite the 17% gain. The upshot is that my existing puts on UVXY &#8220;only&#8221; lost all their profit and are price where I bought them. (It was still HARD to watch all that green evaporate as I stuck to my position!).<\/p>\n<p>In addition to welcoming shares and a fresh crop of SSO call options to the family, I released one more short position back into the stock jungle: First Solar (FSLR). FSLR looks like it has made a classic topping pattern with two rounded tops that both failed to take out the highs set by a climactic style of buying after this year&#8217;s analyst day in April. The breakdown below the 200DMA, a fresh low, and a complete reversal of the analyst day surge all confirm weakness. FSLR is one that can likely be faded on strength. The on-going collapse in energy prices and commodities will likely dampen sentiment further. Like steel stocks, I need to get back to the soapbox analyzing solar stocks!<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_24938\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24938\" style=\"width: 540px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/141009_FSLR.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/141009_FSLR.png\" alt=\"First Solar has finally completed a roundtrip wiping out all its gains from April&#039;s analyst day\" width=\"550\" height=\"375\" class=\"size-full wp-image-24938\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/141009_FSLR.png 550w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/141009_FSLR-300x204.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24938\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">First Solar has finally completed a roundtrip wiping out all its gains from April&#8217;s analyst day<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p>I considered FSLR a good short to close out during the oversold period because the selling extended so far below the lower-Bollinger Band. It does not have to bounce sharply from here, but it is very likely to do so soon&#8230;especially once the general stock market makes a move out of oversold conditions (trust me, it WILL at some point!).<\/p>\n<p>Another stock of interest is LinkedIn (LNKD). <a href=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/tag\/lnkd\/\" target=\"_blank\">I have wrestled with this stock for much of the year<\/a>. I took advantage of the pre-earnings run-up to close out my last position at a profit. So, it has been VERY tempting to get back in on the current dip, but the technicals are so mixed here. I like the consolidation but hate the break below the 50DMA. I like the retest of the 200DMA but hate the long 1-day trip to do it. I LOVE the Bollinger Band squeeze building, but I cannot develop an opinion on a breakout or a breakdown. So, it seems like a perfect options straddle or strangle candidate.<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_24927\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24927\" style=\"width: 540px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/141009_LNKD.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/141009_LNKD.png\" alt=\"Is LinkedIn coiling ahead of a really big move?\" width=\"550\" height=\"375\" class=\"size-full wp-image-24927\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/141009_LNKD.png 550w, https:\/\/drduru.com\/onetwentytwo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/141009_LNKD-300x204.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24927\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Is LinkedIn coiling ahead of a really big move?<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p>So, how low can T2108 go before the S&#038;P 500 bounces again? That is anyone&#8217;s guess. T2108 went as low as 1.25% (yikes!!!) in 2008 in an awesome display of cataclysmic fear. T2108 went as low as 6.5% during the last big sell-off in 2011. These experiences have taught me to combine the VIX with the timing of entries for oversold trading. They have also taught me to buy shares instead of options when the going seems particularly rough (like now). <\/p>\n<p>You may also ask why not focus on fading strength given the apparent stiff resistance at the 50DMA. I think that is a comfortable move for anyone who expects a much deeper sell-off. I am not there yet. Plus, a fresh bounce from oversold conditions is a poor risk\/reward play even though it looks like pure genius right now. Of course I apply a huge exception to downside hedges like Caterpillar (CAT).
