EWZ trade ideas

Metrics:
Probability of Profit: 42%

Max Loss: $136/contract

Pay attention to this Trendline in Brazil etf /EWZ...This is interesting development. There is LT trendline at play here. If it is broken and we get Tk cross, i will look for long entries on daily TF. So,far we have rejection. Next month, TK will be flat and might act as support . I am closely watching usdollar in 2017 for behavious change. No trade as of yet in this etf, but can present a very good opportunity . Thought to share.

Max Profit: $223/contract
Max Loss: $177/contract

An inverse trip to BrazilBrazil is known for nice beaches, women and carpirinhas.
The beautiful Christ the Redeemer is placed high above Rio.
Raging high is also the price of EWZ which is stretched more than 30 % above its 200 DMA.
It has reached 1.618 of its previous intermediate top and it is due for an intermediate cycle low correction soon.
It has met a big resistance level and its RSI indicates heavily overbought conditions.
Wait for "double top" and take position in BRZS which is 3x inverse EWZ. Recommend start with 50% position and increase by 50% after first confirmation.
EWZ weekly - short term be cautious - 9/30/2016It has been stalled for 7 weeks, MACD turns negative and RSI rising wedge breaks. Price is still holding well but I am watching the blue support line carefully.
Overall up trend is intact given the rising 40 week moving average, any drop less than 20% should be seen as a healthy correction and should be bought given the up trend bias.
TRADE IDEA (PREMIUM SELLING): EWZ OCT 21ST 29.5 SHORT PUTHere, I'm just looking to sell a little premium in the highest implied volatility, broad market underlying there is out there at the moment -- the Brazil exchange-traded fund, EWZ. The Olympics, after all, are over, and no doubt body parts will be washing up again soon on Copacabana beach, PBR will be undergoing yet another corruption/fraud/you-name-it scandal, and there is, of course, that whole impeachment thing ... .
Metrics:
Probability of Profit: 71%
Max Profit: $107/contract (at the mid)
Breakeven: 30.46
Notes: I'm basically selling the ~30 delta strike here. I'll look to roll the option down and out for duration and credit if the price of the option equals 2x what I received in credit for it. Otherwise, I'll leave it alone and look to cover the trade at 50% max profit. Naturally, there's a lot of air below the strike, but I'm mentally prepared to have to roll it down and out for a period of time to get it to "work out" ... .
