While I generally don't trust these low volume days for swings, the moves tend to be exaggerated which is good for daytrading. I started out using 5-min charts but switched to 15-min charts for entries and back to 5-min charts for exits.
SKF - I used the 113 level established early in the morning for entry and just trailed the stop using the moving averages and 5-min bars. I commented in one of the chat boards that the last hour is too volatile for the inverse ETFs and sure enough it was. I'm glad I exited a bit early.
SRS - I started the day on 5-min charts but got a false break-out early on.

Amazing how SRS and SKF both collapsed at the close. I have had someone emailing me about buying SRS and how I am wrong being cautious on the Ultrashorts. Sorry he did not listen and bought some more of SRS today.
I wanted to swing the ultrashorts based on the daily but it was too risky after looking at the last hour sell-offs over the past 5 days. Glad you held your ground!
