I'm liking your uncle's comment.

I wish I had the patience for buy&hold! Swing trading gives me more of a hands-on approach to learning the game, and it's more fun to me

I can't afford the meager gains of B&H

I still have that TZA that I bought near Tuesday's close. I'll be looking to sell it today. Hedged my S fund losses nicely

Why?

Two down days in a row, don't like my odds of a third. And now the market is reversing to the upside!

It's just wishful thinking... more downside to come. I am hanging onto my TZA and if the price goes down, I may get more

I like your style

I've been 100% S fund since mid December. If today is up around 1% or more before the deadline, I'll use my first Jan IFT to get out. Currently futures are up well so this is a good possibility.

IFT'd 100% G fund COB today. Took the melt up and today's bump for a total of over 3% on the year, as long as we close with these numbers. Looking to skip a dip and get back in with my 2nd IFT. May end up staying out for up to 3 weeks due to wedding this Saturday followed by 10 days in Europe Paris, Rome, Barcelona!!

9th on the AT overall and 3rd if you count ties. Got out yesterday and looking for lower prices to reenter. Excited for my first full year on the autotracker
