Interesting how you can use XIV to confirm set-ups in the S&Ps. Could have played this via SSO or SPY itself of course. SPXL is the Direxion 3x Bull which is fairly liquid.
Keeping Track of Nielsen Part 2
Mixed tone, flat prices in NLSN ... how to manage this open position, that's the question. Target remains 49.50. Where is your stop now?
