XHB Hedged Bear Trade Exit


We haven't hit my stop or even broken the trend line, but 4/5/17 & 4/6/17 form a Bullish Harami then 4/6/17 - 4/10/17 form a Doji Sandwich, both are bullish. Plus we have a close above the 8ema yesterday which is a change of trend indication. Today we seem to be moving higher which could be confirmation if we close positive.

So, while we could wait for a close above the trend line, I'm going to be conservative and exit here today with a small loss.

Results:
Shorted XHB 36.82, covered 37.07.
Bought XHB May 38 Calls for .36, sold for .36.

Goal is small losses and larger gains.
