    The issue for me, bailing now, is that I will be out of IFTs. Therefore, I am out of the market until March. Neither choice is appealing.

    Somehow that doesn't seem logical, but alas here we are...Seems the trend is not the bulls friend lately.

    Testing the lows, putting in a double bottom, that has resulted in resumption of upward movement in the past. Lets see if that holds true this time, one reason I didn't bail... we shall see.

    Nnutt posted a technical analysis video last night that looks at weekly charting trend lines which showed that we're at support going back many moons. The analyst expressed an opinion that there should/could/might be one more push to the highs over the next weeks/months before a major dump, but if support fails, look out below. He also characterized the last month or so as a 'blow off top' which was being discussed last fall, having never seen one, didn't recognize the steeper incline as such. I wish I had been hawking the Grock Trade videos, I didn't recognize the weakness in the days prior to the drop and he called the sell. I'm tempted to exit on any strength today, I do have an IFT to get back in. Futures are up...

    If we don't get much lower I think that would be a 'win' for holding on support. If the Fed changes their tune, we could see some recovery...

    Really interesting Jim Cramer Tweets this afternoon. He is watching VIX products going down followed by Margin calls which bring the market up. He says the next one at 2:45 could be big.

    Futures are UP! I don't think we're out of the woods yet, but holding on has paid off so far... What is amazing is I'm over 13% for the past 12 mo. according to the TSP.gov site. Will be nice when I'm positive for the year again on the AT! The CovaccioCapital video indicates there is still much strength and little to indicate that the market is close to rolling over, right now anyway, that could change of course.

    First time visiting this thread. I've seen several references to Grok. What is Grok?
