Re: Whipsaw's Account Talk
Well, having bailed, I'm glad I got a little back from the 2 day dump (out today and tomorrow, then travel next week, no worries on this move). Lots of excitement for basically a wash on this trade. Actually, I think I'm a few tenths to the good. Will be watching the churn from the lily pad till 1 April. Happy investing, stay thirsty my friends.

Re: Whipsaw's Account Talk
Just when you think you've got some idea of the way ahead, someone opens their mouth and turns it upside down. Oh well, I can get back in on the 4th, I think, but that's a Monday, and the IFT has to go in on Friday... I'm on travel too, not likely to have access to a machine... Hmmmmmmm....
Bad news is good news again... Nice run today, watching from the sidelines :-/

Re: Whipsaw's Account Talk

ain't no tellin yellen, i'm not sure events like that can be predicted, let alone capitalized on with a tsp account.
the predictable thing about hot air balloons is they all come to ground, eventually.

You are beneath me on the Tracker.
Kneel before Zod.
I like TSPTalk and I think most people here are well-intentioned but if I followed their advice, I'd be hunkered down in my basement with a thousand cans of tuna fish.

Cramer... Yes, there are bubbles... don't be afraid if you do your homework. There really isn't any other way to get wealthy than making money with money in the market.

Re: Whipsaw's Account Talk
Back from travel; will be able to keep a closer eye on goings on. Right now, looking at MJR's rounded top chart, Tsunami's comments, JTH-ESD going to the F-train (I've never had luck on the F-Train), Burros-Ark, and various commentary from around the web, will be holding tight for a while expecting a better entry point (I feel like I would be 'buying high' if I jumped in at this point, even though there is consolidation indicated). Still in the capital preservation mindset. Happy investing everyone!

Re: Whipsaw's Account Talk
Alright, another capitulation move on my part... considering this relatively high risk, looking for a point or two follow through into Friday. Just the chorus of 'the Bull is here!' in the news is making me nervous. At any rate, if I get out with an up day tomorrow I'll spank FAB1! =:-o 100% S COB.

Re: Whipsaw's Account Talk
Pretty quiet around here today. Folks taking the day off? Any predictions on next week? The Oil meeting in Doha on Sunday may have some impact...

It could be spring fever...That's when the iron in your blood turns to lead in your a$$...
As for the markets next week? They will probably go up because I am out of IFT's for the month and sitting 50% G fund, 50% F fund.
