    So, the move to the lily pad may have been pre-mature, never can tell what a weekend may hold, this close to the end of the month with a move to get back in, why not. Getting close to new highs, if the pattern repeats (remember, any pattern identified at that point will no longer repeat) we should see a decline following the new high. that may coincide with the 'chart of the day': https://www.marketwatch.com/story/ca...?mod=home-page

    So my pattern break rule held :-/ Now I'm of the same thinking as FWM and BooDog, nearing a short term top so I don't want to burn a move in now for potentially limited gains, then I'd be done for the month. Should have held with the initial plan of jumping back in before 1 Nov, though it didn't look like we would break through resistance. Of course, now CH is bullish . Oct was a good month with 1.79% gain. Still more work to be done.

    Good thinking Whipsaw! You are avoiding the mistake I made last month (impatience) entering when it was too high and I regretted it with no way to enter when we got a great set up.
    Best Wishes to You an d Everyone* !!!!

    P.S. I now must sit and wait for a pull back. Will see how long I can wait.

    Someone who might actually know what he's talking about. Thanks for sharing Whipsaw.

    It's no surprise when we look overall at how much the market is media driven and manipulated by the media. Of course when we try and follow smart money it's well often after we see the indicators in the charts and say to ourselves, shoulda coulda woulda. It's tough to impossible to time the markets. That's an excellent article that helps put a lot in perspective.

    This continued climb was not unforseen, though I did expect some sort of a dip. Now that I want to jump in, I'm thinking I'm my own contrarian indicator... :-/

    Recent upward activity almost feels like the previous blow off top. Tom and RSOTC pointed out the VIX being at low support, but also now at 11 or so consecutive days of upward movement, both of which has preceded sharp pull backs in the past. Hmmmmmmm....
