What Do We Think About Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs)?

We actually recommend our students trade ETFs when first starting out.

They tend to move a bit slower and are perfect for applying the TSL method as a new student.

The Triple Sync Logic Strategy works in any market (stock/ETF) where there is Volume & Volatility - The ones In which the  “Smart Money” or institutional investors pay attention to.

What are the THREE stocks and two indexes I watch?

  • The three stocks are: Apple (AAPL), Facebook (FB) & Nvidia Corporation (NVDA)
  • The two indexes are PowerShares QQQ Trust (QQQ) and SPDR S & P 500 Trust Series ETF (SPY)

Why focus on just THREE stocks & TWO indices?

  • Small bid/ask spreads 
  • Big moves and big volume
  • Weekly Options = All expire on Friday

We teach our students to focus on a certain set of stocks/etfs when they first get going because these stocks have high volume and it is easy to get a good fill.

Focusing on one or two markets allows you to learn their behavior and how they move throughout the day. 

Remember, you are not “investing” in these companies. All you care about is that they go up and down throughout the day so you can quickly get in and then get out.
