Thread: Whipsaw's Account Talk

Futures are off big, stayed at the fair too long, but still left before the worst of it... =:-o

Still heading south!

My exit last week is starting to look a little better.

Allot of interesting discussion on what is going on. Purely from what the charts show from February, it was like plucking a guitar string, with great amplitude at the beginning with sinusoidal ups and downs of decreasing magnitude. Will we see that type of action again? Need to dig into the DBA market analysis program she threw out today!

No guesses from me...just an observation. We climbed up to the edge of yesterdays cliff pretty quick this morning. I thought we would hit SnP of 2699 today but didn't think it would happen till after our cutoff time. Begs the question 'Is this more than a relief rally/dead cat bounce?'

An hour to decide but I'm still planning on staying on pad.

Did somebody say Whipsaw!

Hey! That's my line!

I hate to think it, but to catch some of the upside movement may require 1-day leaps of faith.

Nice little comeback... it would be nice for those in it to get back some. Looked at 15 min intraday, up up up… and then in past 15 mins a little red candle. now a green... but what happens after noon? We shall see...... not trying to be insensitive here as I know the losses are huge right now... but question is can it hold? Hopefully so. But is this the bottom????
I should think it is very close but …...

HI Whipsaw! Just FYI - that was just a laundry list of what I look at, but it does not reflect my actual decision making method or strategy. That is a well kept secret and that is probably a very good thing... not sure anyone would want it! lol.... heck … I don't even know if I want it... but what I am doing now did keep me out enough to not lose anything in Oct. and that is just downright miraculous!

Hey do any of you all want to play with TSPTalk poker club: Texas Hold Em???? Just wondering... it is fun, free and we play once a week... alternate each week Sunday/ Monday at 7pm CT. I am very nice!!!!! You can ask anyone … and BerryCuda hardly ever shows her teeth! ...well until she takes the big chomp... ouchy!!! kee kee kee

Tempted to put in a ~20% position while sale prices reign. This would be a long term put for when Mr. Market recovers... Thoughts?
