I don't know about you guys, but I find that the "big money" player(s) in the dynamic funds aren't good fades, but they don't seem good enough to follow, either. Almost useless, really. I do seem to get more from big buys of the non-Dynamic funds. Money is constantly flowing out of Rydex, so I think buys matter much more than sells. If someone has a chart that can show me otherwise I'm all eyes. Mark

I have asked this before but little response or interest. Why would some entity tie up some 50 to 100 million position with the locked trade times at rydex? Zen was noting the "flipper" activity in the Dynamic Velocity and Venture before he shut down his blog. I found the moves (usually $50 million to $100 million) of the flipper quite dramatic. Sometimes right and wrong like the rest of us. Thinking of 3 to 4 million a day won or lost kept my attention. I sweat my lil account at rydex and it is only 240K. Seems like some person or fund throwing that kind of cash around would be better rewarded in futures and options or QLD/QID. Probably just part of some type of hedge anyway. I still do not understand it. Any other rydexers out there use this big mover to their advantage? or is it like just watching racing for the wrecks? Thanks.

This is a fund switching advisor, clearly. As such, it's not really THAT much money, though it's not peanuts either. He's pulling down $1MM a year gross, I'll bet. Mark

Well Darris,
It's so interesting to me to see that scratch leave without affecting the market especially on lower volume

days but when it's a Friday that's just the way its worked.

I'm sure that some here know that our markets just move a certain way on certain days (meaning under

certain conditions) almost regardless of the players actions. Options expirations is a pretty good

example. That all aside as I've suspected this money would sneak out Friday and that we should Start OFF Monday

with a move to the downside. Any Gap Up would be a wonderful SHORT OPP. that I encourage anyone

day-trading to take. If we then get the down move expected we just have to remember that it may not last forever

because "that sideline reserve" has been re-loaded and can provided the necessary support at anytime.

Hope you all are enjoying the weekend

Well sometime even a blind Nut.... finds a Squirrel !
