    I just want to know what is going to happen this week and possibly next week.

    the expectation that the market is bullish here, is a high risk bet. that being the case, you'll have to have tighter stops too protect capital for another day. not playing at all risks losing out on the possible high risk bet. since nobody has the crystal ball, it comes down to being aware enough to manage the risk without getting sleepyheaded about it.
    the timeliness of tsp trades and inability to protect with real time stops is the tough part of navigating the TSP trading world.

    like a cessna pilot flying a lear jet....brain is twenty miles behind the aircraft. buying the blood and selling the euphoria seems to be the only workable option i've found.

    wish someone would post a proven system for hedging with calls or puts. would like to experiment with such

    Great posting on this string...great info Sarah

    Mrmtmrk you brought up a great point in your post:

    in order to find that indicator, it's best to search for the thing that most expresses the insiders actions.

    Insiders are dumping their stock in droves.....that to me is a indicator I probably do not want to buy any....

    The military TSP came into the market at the close...would of been great to see where the market would of finished without that wave of cash crashing onto the shores.

    Once again great posts....funny the U.S. dollar is getting creamed....wonder what that means???

    Good luck out there.

    MT

    P.S. Saraha - great icon.
