    A number of things. No positive MACD crossover yet, tariff jitters, seasonality, September being the worst performing month of the year, and my own crystal ball numbers are moving in a negative direction.

    One final thing that has my attention, not that it will happen again, but I am keeping an eye on it. Back in January the S&P closed at a new all time high. Nine business days later, the S&P closed at a new low for 2018. That high was broken on 29 August when the S&P closed at 2914.04. Since that new high, the S&P has closed down 5 of the last 7 days.

    With that, I'm gonna stay on the lily pad for the time being.

    Thanks RF, very insightful! So far, so so... positive by a little, hoping to get back to, or near, the top of the channel, then bail for the rest of the month.

    Well, so far so good on the entry. However it is Turn Around Tuesday and as you know, what we see at noon in not necessarily how we end the day. Hopefully though, it continues up and touches the top.

    Good luck!!!

    Making a little being in last week, hope it continues, that the tarriffs and trade concerns are priced in. You would think the consensus would be for domestic manufacturing vice buying stuff made overseas would bode well for stocks, but the folks caught in the transition will have some turbulence and would be a drag. Was out on Friday, down a bit today, but thinking we will grind higher. That annoying Hindenburg Omen is showing is ugly head again...

    Was out yesterday, watching in the morning... didn't look to bad, the afternoon was not so great. Up so far, hopefully we'll get it back. Some sort of realignment to the major indices is going on this month, there will be volatility as all the big financial houses rebalance accordingly.

    Whipsaw. You changing up and becoming a buy and holder? I always thought you were a market timer.
