    This is taken from a premium service I subscribe to, part of which was posted on the open MB. I won't play a one day buy signal with TSP, but with the five day also in buy territory it greatly enhances my chance for some profit.

    These one and five day signals are not as straight forward as you might think. They are issued with a measure of flexibility, which is why the one day signal is good until Wednesday.
    I see it in my charts too and I'm also thinking about a short 1-2 day play. Look at the TNX.

    Attachment 6466

    The TNX suggests that we could see a bounce in the market tomorrow morning, but the chart is looking scary. Notice that it has been bouncing off the 20dma since March. The Fed and the Treasury are idiot crooks. Once GS gets their shorts ready, the Feds will pull liquidity to drive everybody to the safety of bonds, crashing the market and the TNX, because their buying of treasuries ain't working. Are we about to see the TNX fall trough the 20 dma? I don't know.

    Be carefull and good luck.

    CH,

    Looks like a really good day to buy in if that is your move. What kind of an exit point would you be looking for?

    You're right. The manipulation has been overt, but I have to take my buy signals when they present themselves...and that ain't often.

    My exit point is profit. I'm not looking at targets as TSP is too inflexible to pick one. I'll be monitoring my sources for guidance here, but if we get that rally I won't be trying to push it too far. We get back above 920 SPX and I'll be happy. As I said previously, we could see a ST move higher that could last for about one week, but expect some chop during that move. It could go higher than most people think due to end of quarter market positioning too.

    Very good point.

    Plus, if your stomach doesn't have a couple of butterflies fluttering around, I would get worried.

    Just following up..... TBT has been a great ETF to hold all year. Last week it was up about 50% for the year.

    I know, I've been tracking it for months. Think it may have peaked for awhile.

    Yeah, the YEN continue to rise and the Nikkei is down 300. This is worst than what I was expecting. And the futures being green does not help either.

    You'll have to let me know how you liked that book Kevin.

    Here's a good read for you timers out there...if you're buy and hold, don't open this link!
