Thread: Epic's Account Talk

  1. #1

    Default Epic's Account Talk

    Since I've been making comments more often in other Members Account threads, it's only fair that I open one of my own so people can chime in if they want.
    I've been trolling this site from back in the day when we could make TSP transfers on a daily basis, and when Ebbenflo (is that spelling correct? I can't remember) used to post his moves before he made it a paid service.
    I'm not in the TSP Tracker. Maybe one day, but for now I'm not.
    Feel free to ask anything you like if your curious.

    Just some of the things I look at to try and get a feel for what's going on at the time are:
    https://www.naaim.org/programs/naaim-exposure-index/
    https://money.cnn.com/data/fear-and-greed/
    https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/CME_MINI-ES1%21/
    https://www.investing.com/indices/indices-futures
    https://www.tradingview.com/u/Eloquent/ (I look at his es updates, but he covers a lot more)
    https://www.marketwatch.com/investin...countrycode=xx

    I watch the daily (end of day) wrap-up from these two guys:
    https://www.youtube.com/user/IraEpsteinFutures/videos
    https://www.youtube.com/user/msforecasting/videos

    And of course DBA's Charts:
    https://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=%2...31&a=947506571
    https://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=%2...31&a=947506572
    https://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=EF...78&a=947506573

    I also keep an eye on the "Top 10 List" on the opening TSP Talk page to see who's making the highest returns and where their money is for that day.
    I like Bquat's charts that he posts as well, but I don't have a link for those on the TradingView.com site.

    Good luck!

    This would be a good time to add an account to the AutoTracker, before the New Year starts.

    Just in case...

    Welcome. I had thought of starting my own channel once. but, i'm too often wrong. maybe I could open a contrarian one? ha ha ha.

    anyway; welcome and i will be following your channel with interest, as well as those it seems, you are also following. DBA rocks; may I also suggest TSPTalk, RangerRay, and Coolhand? there are so many great threads and so many have retired. Look forward to reading your comments.

    This looks encouraging for the Long Term perspective. https://www.tradingview.com/chart/ES...-12-20-update/
    Take it with a grain of salt. There's millions of "Opinions" out there. =P

    Hi Epic, Glad to see you opened a thread. Many to learn from here. I like to hear all the folks MMK mentioned and TSPtalk commentary plus many many folks on this site. I suggest GrokTrade posts made by Nnuut each week on that thread. I like Dez...D7 best, from GrokTrade, who puts out a weekly outlook video on Sundays and of course Ira Epstein and his morning flash and end of day Financials video. Also noticed Intrepid puts out a weekly blog on Sundays that provides key data scheduled to come out in the coming week, which is helpful.

    Best wishes to you!

    Nice second day in a row with all charts showing a solid upswing at the end of day.
    Markets are closed on Friday, so do we see some end of week profit taking, some sideways action, or more FOMO pushing the market even higher into the three day Christmas Weekend???
    My observations have normally been when the market ends on an end of day up-tic like that, we usually get some follow-through into the next day because of momentum.
    A third strong UP day would be SWEEEET!!! I'd even be happy with it moving sideways. Anything but down.....

    Nice start for the day!!! I have 2 moves left for this month. If this day stays solid UP, that makes 3 strong solid UP days in a row. Will there be a pullback on Monday after this weekend? Should I get out and sidestep that if possible, and then jump back in and get set up for January? OR.... does the market just take a pause (go sideways) and then go into hard core Santa Rally? I need to think about this........
    For what it's worth, I'm 70%S and 30%C

    Revshark talked about this today. The said that we get a lot more "V" bottoms these days because of FOMO (fear of missing out) from the people who missed buying the lows and are waiting for a dip. Because of FOMO, there's a constant bid from these people keeping the rallies going. So, the market doesn't test the lows as much as it used to.

    But of course we live in a world where if it bleeds, it leads, so you never know which headline will be the next to scare folks out again.

    There, that should make it less easy to make a decision.

    Good luck, whatever you decide!

    Great point! LOL
    In the mean time, NAAIM took a sharp positive turn to the Upside https://www.naaim.org/programs/naaim-exposure-index/
    And we're almost back to "Neutral" in the Fear & Greed Index https://money.cnn.com/data/fear-and-greed/
    I have to check a few more indicators......
    This one showing a "Strong Buy" signal right now https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/CME_MINI-ES1%21/

    I'm gonna hang in there. Everything I've looked at has been very positive. I hope if there IS a pullback next week, that it's minimal or better yet just a pause sideways, and then a continuation upwards. Fingers crossed ! ! ! ! ! ! !
