Anons,

Would it be retarded to buy some UVXY before the election? I went back in the chart and every non-incumbent election year since 2008, at about the 2 week point before the election, it begins shooting upwards. Is this potentially due to the weekly calls getting released for things like UVXY and others? Looking at UVXY now it's starting to curl up, and this election seems like it's going to be contested like a motherfucker and uncertain until the end. I don't trade in options yet because I don't have an options account, but I'm thinking of just buying some UVXY. It went up 50% in the week leading up to the 2016 election and this one seems even more uncertain.
