sell on the one day pony.

I am going 55G/F5F; I think this is a(nother) head fake off the 200 ema in the SPY; if truely no more stimuli/freelunch/bailouts, especially here (USA), I think it will be breached before the end of month. We'll see.
 
Re: sell on the one day pony.

Why not save yourself the trouble of losing all that money and just write me a check, I'll spend it on your behalf...
 
I will keep my shares thank you. And buy more if we go lower at a nice discount. The single celled one just doesn't get it. Stay in and you will get it all back and more you can't generate wealth selling yours to others for less.

Yeah.....I am beginning to wonder if amoeba's strategies, posts, and tracker moves are nothing more than a humurous, entertaining, hoax that we all got suckered into????? :nuts::confused:

Thats funny! hmmm you just never know about people on the internet do you? I bet he is 100% I fund right now and just faking his tracker moves

:- O ha ha !
 
No hoax:

I can assure you my moves on this tracker are exactly my TSP moves - and no I-fund right now. Today (6/23) was very active (333 million SPY); ended flat - seems like alot of speculation/resistence at the 200 EMA on the SPY; some factors not looking so good.

Job report next week.......how many weeks of $400K+ weekly claims in a row is it now? seems to have been going on awhile. If I recall, the last jobs report shook things up...we'll see what happens....

Okay I was just kidding, I think we all were.

Except for me (I wish I WAS kidding, about my real IFT's, that is); I may still achieve my monthly goal of staying above a return of -5% (yes, that's MINUS 5%) for the first six months; which would mean losing only 1.5% for this month. And NO, that does not mean I want to lose ANOTHER 5% by the end of the year.

The sentiment survey I believe is close to the most bearish so far this year (about 2:1 bears/bulls).

If I were to guess - this friday (and especially next) will be light volume - the last year has witnessed large moves (in either direction) when this happens. Good luck all.
 
Wrong about the volume (pretty good still):

And the market seems to be going sideways/down in the face of what look like "meets" economic data; at some point the market will either break decisively below the 200 EMA or go back up to the 50 EMA. Wait a minute - that's what I thought last summer - and got burned a couple times by it; but history is not a predictor of the future, in the stock market.

I think I will sit on this G/F fund for a little longer until we get some better direction on the economy; I don't attribute it all to Europe, or the "soft patch" theory (a bit optimistic, IMO, not sure we know for sure what this is - an alternative theory is that the stimuli are petering out, and what we just had was a hard patch, and now we are going to continue from last summer downwards).

No predictions for next week -no less this summer or this year; it's as clear as pea soup to me.

Even so there are going to be positive days and some will be nice gains - the trick will be to catch them and move back to safety almost immediately, that is if things do get worse as you are implying.
 
futures sharply down....not sure why.....that can change hours before the open monday:

speculation on some disappointment in the week following is my take; either greece, or jobs; something........

I'm not hearing a whole lot of optimism out there...at best, recapturing the 50 EMA and then selling and cutting your losses. That sentiment can be a good thing if it is extreme, but right now with the ^VIX hovering ~20, there's no clarity. To me.
