10. US T – Bonds – Short Call @ $153 – 25 Jul 2012 (Target – $150) – Closed @ 150 03/32 – Jul 27 2012
Measured leverage, patience and an understanding of the technical position allowed us to remain in these positions.
We open a new position today on US 30 Yr T-Bonds. Short @ $153. The chart below shows just how overextended this contract is and we think there could be a good 3 or 4 points drop in this over the next several days.
