  • I got out of my E-shorts about two weeks ago, perhaps more. 6/5 & 6/6. Have been eyeing when to get back in. I have saved a few pennies, on EUO and a dollar on DRR. I don't wish to give up that little cushion but being there are so many shorts out there, TPTB [the bankers of euro-holders] need to bolster their shrinking treasure chest, so I was thinking I may see a good short covering rally and if the E$ does get {or manage[heh heh] }higher I would love to enter above the 1.26 level, say around 1.30, for the rolly coaster ride south.
    So far 28% profits in DRR and about 14% in EUO. Not really willing to pay that back.
