BBUS trade ideas
ASX:BBUS - Bear partyBBUS is the inverse ETF for the SPX, available on the ASX. With a shaky looking US market, the bears look to be loading up the party bus for some wild action.
A very clean setup here which means a trade must be taken at this level, targeting the red box. If this trade plays out, the temporary relief for US equities has come to an end for now.
Note: I've used Heikin Ashi to "smooth" out the chart due to the amount of gaps using regular candlesticks.

BBUS | wait for consolidation before longshey traders,
there are alot of people (in aus) looking to purchase both this and bboz. my opinion. wait for consolidation. why? because what if this turns out to be a c wave and just an expanding flat bboz is also showing a very similar option. allow sideways before longs.
ASX $BBOZ $BBUS $BEAR - ETFs that short the ASX and US StocksI call this my PLAYSCHOOL strategy, because there is a bear in there...
Taking a complete punt on the ASX and US stocks continuing a bit of a downward run for a while so have taken a position on these ETFs that are a way of shorting the ASX and US markets without the complications. These work just like buying and selling normal shares.
From a user post on HotCopper
"BBOZ and BEAR are actually relatively simple strategies but as described above need to be carefully monitored as they do the opposite of what most investments do (i.e. they are specifically designed to go up when the market goes down). In order to achieve their investment strategies they essentially short SPI (ASX 200) futures, in the case of BEAR this is done on close to a 1:1 basis, in the case of BBOZ, this is done on a 2-3:1 basis.
I have used both funds extensively in my trading strategies to both hedge against or profit from market downturns. BBOZ requires far more careful monitoring due the leverage involved than BEAR but both do what they say. The BetaShares website shows you on a daily basis the "exposure" you should be expecting on the day vs. the ASX 200. e.g. at the time I write this BEAR is providing a -1.02x performance and BBOZ is providing a -2.17x exposure.
FYI, there is a similar product to BBOZ available for the US market, its called BBUS"
