    My advice would be not to give in and sell-off (like I had done). Stick it out, and actually DCA in with new monies... if that's your piece of cake.

    Once this market takes off, it'll take off big. And if you are currently registering a loss, you don't want to miss that rebound.

    We don't know when that rebound is going to come, or what will be its catalyst. But it will come.

    Your patience and determination will pay off!

    God Bless
    You see!!! GOOD FOR YOU!!!

    If you were patient and stuck it out, you have been seeing your account recover those losses. Continue to be patient- without selling at a loss- and you will be out of the hole before you know it.

    God Bless

    The hard part is throwing good money after bad but that is what has to be done to catch the best prices. DCAing has always been the redeemer of my accounts.

    We have a new 2008 low that set in today- the Nasdaq. It now sits at:

    2,278.75

    Next in line is the EFA, which is only .11 away from a new 2008 low.

    The S&P still has 15.96 to drop before a new 2008 low sets in.

    Hopefully the REAL bottom will set in soon.

    God Bless

    Yeah... I'm hoping for some new lows this week.

    So far, Nikk futures are down over 200. So, it may be another down day for Japan.

    On 1/23 the I fund had a price of $21.45 - and I bought a 1% position. Prior to that I bought a 3% position at $21.58 the day before.

    Thank you, Dennis. I just saw that for myself and was in the process of editing.

    .09 gain today. Too much... too fast... IMO.
