Anyone trading volatility?

Just curious what instruments you use call your enter and exit points

I took a huge bet on TVIX a little over a year ago and it paid off to the tune of $80k in the span of a couple of days. I wouldn't really recommend it. It was nothing but dumb luck, but I'm young enough to where I figured I'd be okay even if I had lost all of my money.

TVIX has an extremely high expense ratio and the chances that you'll get in at the right time are slim.

Then they could be hedge fund managers making north of a billion dollars per year.

You're the bridge collector amongst your friends aren't you

You've never collected bridges before? They're considered to be one of the most sound investment opportunities in the U.S. I'm actually looking to sell one of mine to liquidate some of my assets. You can reasonably expect to get a 20% ROI on it. Interested?

Is it the Brooklyn or Golden one? I need some more of the London... I feel I didn't get enough stock, need to get in, especially after Brexit...

I actually have a piece of London Bridge. Shaped like a pyramid and attached to an oak square with an engraved plaque.
