My Swing Trading Approach I played SPXU twice on Friday. I closed it out early on when it looked like the bulls might try to take the market back up for a +2.8% profit. But shortly later, I re-entered the trade again, and sold it at the end of the day for another +2.9% profit.

My Swing Trading Approach I closed out my long position in SPXU (3:1 SPX short ETF) on Tuesday afternoon for a 6.3% profit. Sure, it'd be nice to still have it today, with the market gapping much lower, but after a 90 point sell-off on Tuesday, and a day-off in between, I had no desire
