getting my can kicked on the UNG trade.
picked up SCHV at $29.49 first thing this morning.
order in for SCHX at $30.99.
both in ROTH IRA.
Well, it looks like SCHV's prices follow a good wave pattern, up and down but in an upward trend. And yesterday was the third down day, but the daily price action shows that buyers came in at the last and pushed the price up. Now today is an up day from yesterday. And you're above the 200 and 50 day moving averages, and the 50 is above the 200. Until the trend reverses, the EFT looks good to me.
The only thing I would worry about is that there is not much diversification between SCHX and SCHV. If one is good they both are and if one goes bad they'll both go down.
Questions? I don't even pretend to be an expert but I'll try to answer.

schx at $29.99 didn't hit. adjusted at lunch to $30.25 didn't hit.
