It looks to me like the insider selling might be picking up and if we break above 600:1 selling vs buying, then I would seriously consider dropping any longs and switching short.

What I intend to do is make a substantial position in TZA or some inverse type ETF for approximately 1 month starting at the 1,000:1 spike.

I will be using this source as my guide going forward.
