MACD just about to cross its signal line to go positive along with the Slow Stochastic, which is already there. So momentum is definitely up but how long will it last???? It looks like it could reach up and hit 20 EMA resistance by Friday000 but we shall see.

I feel like I am sitting pretty in the catbird seat right now.... hope I don't have to spit out the bird by tomorrow!!!

Best Wishes to Everyone on Your Investments!!!!!!!!!

You're going to be fine DBA. You're approach is a wise, cautious and prudent one. I too will be staying in as we enter February.

It looks like it could reach up and hit or exceed 20 SMA resistance by Friday but we shall see. Still keeping in mind that we are in an overall downtrend so really am not expecting a massive rally to make any major higher high. Just want to take a little bite here.

okay... just me ... talking it out with myself. Tomorrow GDP numbers go out. Obviously, once should expect them to be less than expected... right? If so, logics says the market would drop on the bad news because it would just cement what many are thinking ... i.e. that we are heading into recession period. So, even though I just jumped in yesterday and it was meant to be a short term play (a week at the most), it would make sense to get out now or even reduce exposure. Also, yesterday heard a guy on FBN (oil expert) say that he thought oil would go to $33-34 and then drop back down to $25-26. So I wake up this morning and first thing I hear is that oil is rallying to $33... hummm......

The F fund technical indicators look like it is set up to get a little rise. Hummm.... thinking about partial or full exit from equities. If I do that, since the market is a bit up right now, I could get a little coin by COB... maybe???? And then maybe adding to my position in F fund. If I leave some in equities (i.e. only pull out about half way) it would be safer than pulling it all at once since we have no idea what will happen in the afternoon. So partial exit from equities today (take 60-70% out of that area) and then full exit tomorrow. Just some crazy thoughts!!!!

50 minutes and counting down now. ........ Best wishes to you all on your investments!!!!!!!

P.S. Yes I know.... yesterday I said that I had heard money flows in last week in Jan/first week in Feb. But this is a weird time and I still have visions of a massive one-two day drop.

But wait!!! Whipsaw's post 1227 -- Market Watch article indicates we are in for a rally. Well of course we are.... its dropped for weeks on end.. Can that continue forever? No. So ... I am back to square one.

NOPE.. I don't like it! (Can anyone remember which cartoon character said that?)

I guess I will stay put.

I think we end today up, likely tomorrow will be flat to up. I'm thinking sideways action with the various sectors being up and down. RF pointed out good seaonality through first week in Feb. China central banks pushing liquidity. Oil bottom near? I'm holding for today. I'm home sick with a cold and the worst sinus headache I can remember (its making my teeth hurt!). need.... to..... sllleeeepp...

Oh No!!! I hope you feel better very soon. That's really awful.... uhh... consider taking Flonase nose spray (prescription) eases sinus infections very quickly (one day); Tylenol/Aspirin, Allegra (allergies - stuffy nose), BenGay or Mentholatum just because it makes you warm even though it smells funny(cuddle under blankie), orange juice and water and chocolates just to pamper yourself and feel better; Fox Business News or a good old movie for the awake periods, and Nyquil to crash out most of the day! Best wishes!

Thanks DBA! All that, warm jammies and pink fuzzy bunny slippers! Went with aspirin and a benadryl (faded in and out of consciousness with Rush Limbaugh in the background), the aspirin was lame so I'm shifting to motrin. Just had some chicken soup, now to find chocolates and an old movie... Feeling a little better, like the C Fund at the moment.

GDP numbers. Wonder how day will go once market has time to chew onit??

Looking great today! Trying to not get greedy here. Thinking to pull some out of S fund to lock in a bit of the days gains...and move it to G or...maybe a bit to F???

MACD will actually cross over its signal line today...finally....IF it keeps with current short up trend. So if it does, question becomes how much further before it hits resistance and comes back to a lower low along bottom Bollinger band? Yes i know ...sounds pessimistic but....Keeping in mind we are still in an overall downtrend until proven otherwise.

Best wishes to you all on your investments!!!!!!!!
