It's Monday night on Wall Street, right? Someone just told me to do a search on "$XIV" on twitter and said if you can understand that you know why tomorrow's going to be even worse than today.

Bitcoin is like that. It goes down in value, splits off into another coin, goes down in value, splits off into another coin....

Someone just told me to do a search on "$XIV" on twitter and said if you can understand that you know why tomorrow's going to be even worse than today. Isn't that a Volatility Index? FAKE EDIT (I googled mid comment): Indeed it is, and I just learned that when it's XIV, it means its an Inverse Volatility Index. I know enough to stay away from them. The prospectus for this one is basically a big old SWIM AT YOUR OWN RISK quote:"The ETNs, and in particular the 2x Long ETNs, are intended to be trading tools for sophisticated investors to manage daily trading risks...The ETNs are riskier than securities that have intermediate or long-term investment objectives, and may not be suitable for investors who plan to hold them for longer than one day." Apparently the plunge was stampeding sheep and hedge funds. quote:It is hard to tell who is exactly holding this short-term oriented security at this time. Filings from back in September show Credit Suisse, Deutsche Asset Management, Citadel Advisors, Flow Traders, and Two Sigma as the top holders. Overall, I'd say it's going to be a bouncy couple weeks, but things will settle down as the herd calms.

Memento posted:It's Monday night on Wall Street, right? Someone just told me to do a search on "$XIV" on twitter and said if you can understand that you know why tomorrow's going to be even worse than today. The VIX is calculated based on options prices so it doesn't get updated after the options markets close. IOW, that's the number from Monday afternoon. As a calibration, the futures markets are trading and they're all up over 1% (04:00 Eastern time). Anyone who thinks that they can look at one indicator and tell you what's going to happen tomorrow is dreaming. Markets are down 8% from their all time highs. Today they fell through their 50 day moving average but they're still above their 200 day moving average. Many traders viewed the 50 day moving average as a critical price support level. The first three times that the markets tested that level on Monday there were small recoveries. The fourth time there was a strong imbalance between sell orders and buy orders. The triggered further downward movement, that triggered a large number of cancelled trade orders, that triggered further weakness. The algorithms kicked in and doubled the pull back. Over the past four years (this includes the 'crash' right after Brexit), the 50 day moving average has been a reliable price support level. If there's further weakness over the next few days we could see markets falling to their 200 day moving average. That would take us down anther few percent. Before this multi-year bull market, it was normal to have a 5% correction more-or-less quarterly and not unusual to have a 10% correction once a year. People who haven't been through this before (or who haven't paid attention to longer term trends) are likely to be saying some pretty silly things right about now. FWIW, there have only been two years when markets hit all time highs in January and then failed to close out the year higher than that. HawkHill has a new favorite as of 10:21 on Feb 6, 2018 |

This reminds me of a video I saw posted here maybe a year or two ago of people driving over an icy hill and bailing out once they realized they'd lost control going downhill. What made it especially funny was that their cars were sliding slowly so they definitely put themselves in much more danger by jumping out than staying inside. It's not the gif DryGoods posted, it was several different cars/people. Anyone else know what I'm talking about and have a link to the video? I'd love to see it again.

Mu Zeta posted:Yet reading news sites would make you think people are going to be jumping off buildings because the Dow Jones is down If you listen to the sources that traders listen to (like Bloomberg and CNBC) you'll hear them talking to analysts and fund managers and they're saying the exact opposite. This is what markets do under normal conditions. The talk for years has been that markets have been abnormal because they've been ridiculously positive. Washing out one month's gains from a 8 year bull market isn't a big deal. What's ridiculous is commentators talking in terms of absolute numbers of dollars or points on an index. What matters is percentages. If I'm managing a fund with a billion dollars in my portfolio I don't get twitchy over a one day loss of a million dollars; that's at 10th of a percent. But if I'm a retail investor with 5 million in my account and I lose a million...

But literally no one that I've seen interviewed yesterday or today has said anything more negative than 'it might correct to the 200 day moving average before we bottom'. Mom and pop retail investors? Yeah, some of them will be panic.

I like how just as he's predicting that cars will slide out, they come to a safe stop and go around the cones easily. Wow, its almost like they were driving at a safe speed in icy conditions and thus had plenty of space and time to come to a stop.
