If you are looking for flexible investment vehicles that you manipulate within your portfolio such as stocks, bonds, futures you should pay close attention to ETF’s. By definition ETF stands for exchange traded fund, an ETF holds assets such as bonds and stocks and its net worth is equivalent to that of the negotiable instrument it holds; an ETF can also be thought of as an investment portfolio that holds stocks and bonds or other negotiable instruments that are traded on a stock exchange which is very similar to the way that stocks are traded.
The main difference between stocks and ETF’s (besides that an ETF is a portfolio of bonds or stocks) is that an exchange traded fund tracks and index hence the reason why they’re called index funds. There are many indexes that can be tracked through ETF’s, an investor may choose to track and index for it to Dow Jones, NASDAQ, a specific industry such as the manufacturing industry where they may choose to track and index of an emerging market, these markets can be in different countries so much like stocks and investor can also buy an ETF which tracks a particular index of an industry which thrives in different countries across the world.
The whole ETF concept has been around for about 15 years and the first to hit the market did it in 1993 and was better known as “spiders” — ETF symbol was SPDRs, this ETF in particular tracked the Standard and Poor’s 500 index of large-company stocks. During the early 1990s when there is investment vehicle was introduced to the market the most popular type of ETF’s were those which track the index of the technology sector because of obvious reasons, today there is a huge variety of ETF’s that operate in different countries and it can be said that the amount of ETF’s its equivalent to the number of industries that are being traded in the stock exchange.
Benefits of ETFs
One of the most obvious benefits when it comes to ETF’s is their low operating costs; let’s illustrate this point, the Vanguard total Stock market VIPER which is an ETF that tracks the index for the entire US stock market carries an annual operating cost of 0.07% of the total assets, that is equivalent of saying that a $10,000 investment would have an annual operating fee of seven dollars.
Another great benefit of dealing with an ETF is that such trading vehicle is structured for tax efficiency this is because an ETF itself doesn’t have to buy or sell securities so this means that there are not any taxable gains to be passed on. And ETF can generate taxable gains but, an exchange traded fund is often sold as a stock will be sold in the stock market, they are not redeemed by the holders so in order for an investor to realize capital gains he would have to sell the shares or trade the ETF in order to reflect changes in the underlying index.
Last (but not least) ETFs are very flexible when they are compared against other investment instrument such as mutual funds, in other words a mutual fund is often priced once and this usually happens at the end of the trading day, ETFs on the other hand can be bought or sold exactly as you would with stocks and similarly to stocks you could also buy on margin (using other people’s money) and you can also sell short when the market conditions are appropriate.

Yes, that is part of it. Corrolation to the spot price depends on the combination of trade in the futures, options, or stock of companies in or related to the commodity. Also depends on whether it is a ETF or an ETN. The UNG is an ETN and it is being discontinued within the next couple days because it has preformed poorly.

You can short the TLT if you want to bet long term interest rates will go up.
Alternatively, you can buy TBT. That is you take a long position on TBT to get the desired effect. TBT is double-short long bond ETF. That is, the return you get on this ETF is the same as that of taking a leveraged short position on long-term bonds.

They don’t suck… these funds are for TRADERS, not INVESTORS. The funds are seeking 2x the DAILY returns of the markets they are in, not the ANNUAL return. Trading them intraday is a way to increase your leverage.

A550 is right.
I trade almost everything:S&P 500 eminis,currencies,stocks,commodties,futures,and yes ETFs
Educate yourself a little and see how options are the only way to go.
Minimize downside,maximum upside.
I can make hundreds of return in short periods of time.

I don't believe Fidelity operates any ETFs. You can buy and sell ETFs through your Fidelity brokerage/retirement account. iShares is one of the biggest ETF providers.
QQQQ looks very interesting and has returns near or better than Contrafund (FCNTX). FCNTX seems to perform better in bear markets, QQQQ a slight bit better in neutral and bull markets.

History establishes a trend and gives cues as to how the market HAD dealt with the company in regard to things that went on. It does not directly bear on the future any more than if the previous coin toss were heads. As in the coin, there is still a 50-50 chance on either heads or tails (although I have had a few land on edge, they eventually fell one way or the other). What the market DID (past tense) does not require the market to do it again.
Still, check for major events and trends. Does your stock tend to go up when the Dow goes up? Or may be it goes the other way (as in folks would rather buy a popular blue chip than buy this company when they are in a buying mood)? Or is there any common correlation (often not)? Is your stock seasonal? My first purchases were for an air conditioning manufacturer, so I bought when it was cheap, Winter, and sold when it was higher, early to mid-Summer. If your company, say, made hot chocolate, it would have a different season than it it, say, sold snow cones. Has your company done a lot of ups and downs but within a fairly steady corridor? Then there are reasons why the market may have established a ceiling and a floor, so ferret out some ideas for those price supports or resistance. Similarly, if you can discern other characteristics that frequently happen, you've just been handed an opportunity to improve your odds–if your coin tosses have never gone more than one side four times in a row, for instance, I would bet for the other side, even if the actual odds for that specific toss were still only 50-50. If your stock tends to peak in January, April, and August, then look at your calendar and time your purchases, or sales, with that in mind, even if you haven't figured out the common causes. History, therefore, gives hints and clues. The market, however, doesn't have to bow to history. In that you are on your own.
Still, there is another important history. It involves comparative advantages. Does your company tend to make more profits than its peers? Does your company tend to make more profits more consistently than its peers? Does your company look like it will continue to perform this way? (If not, then look more closely at its peers) Profitability tends to win out over hope and hype in the long run, so look at its history of doing business, and let the market do whatever it wants.
The first is trading. The latter is investing. What are you really wanting to do?

short all them, you can sure make money LOL
May 10th, 2010 at 9:05 pm
shorting etfs, yeah whatever mate. The most you can make shorting any stock is 100% To short stock you need to borrow a quantity from somewhere, no one lends ultra short etfs. This is stupid to short because of the fast pace of volatility. This is trading instrument for large quick returns nobody buys these for the long term!!!
May 10th, 2010 at 11:17 pm
It depends.
If you plan to make a one time deposit, ETFs.
If you're making monthly deposits, funds.
If you're somewhere in between, it depends on the commission you'd pay to your broker to buy the ETF.
One warning, not all brokers let you buy ALL funds for free. Check with your broker first.

If you want to short the market, then you need to sell individual stocks or widely traded ETFs like DIA or SPY short. Bear ETFs don't actually work the way they are described. Due to technical difficulties in the structure of the ETFs they don't always exactly mirror the market that are supposed to. In the big market drop a year ago, many bear funds experienced liquidity problems and the price of the ETF went down even though the underlying index was going down. This meant that people who predicted that the market was going down lost a lot of money even though they were right.
Moral of the story: if you want to go short, then go short; don't look for gimmicks.

I use Scottrade and have been very satisfied. They have a good trading platform and customer service. They are cheaper than Etrade.
I'm not familiar with Zecco, other than looking at their website. But based on your question, you won't need much in the way of service. They could be a no cost way to trade ETFs. I have noticed a number of questions about them which can indicate a customer service problem. Look their site over and see what you think.

Another consideration is that ETF's can be bought/sold like stocks. There is no "holding period" as required by many mutual funds that you purchase through a brokerage account or direct from the mutual fund company. So if the ETF sector is heading down (eg. real estate VNQ), you can get out by simply selling your shares.
May 23rd, 2011 at 1:57 am
It is like the hare and tortoise… From an alternative perspective be in a position to get out if it begins to weaken and don't dare think about purchasing more.

So , Marl in spite of its analytical approach can not assure you profit.

Folks are setting themselves up for complete failure if they don't understand the fundamentals of trading and then decide that something similar to automated stockmarket trading software will be the solution to all their fiscal issues.
