You're welcome.

I'm feeling sick. :sick:

Anybody know if I can cancel my IFT prior to 11:59 AM

I'd still have 13 minutes if possible.

Yeah you can cancel but it has to be 11:59 EST I believe.
Didnt you post close to 1 o' clock?

Dont get too down, this weakness is going to get bought up
like it always does. Or buy some Oil stocks. :blink:

What?

I now have to worry about EST?

Thanks for the input.
 
About 170 people in autotracker are 100% S, including me.

31 people in the top 100 have left and gone 100% G.

Seems to be saying something.

Like RUN.

Only got one IFT left for the month though so..... I guess I have to wait this one out a little bit.
 
Well, I had one IFT left for this month and there is nowhere to go but down. So either move diirectly to G or spread out.

50% S
25% C
25% F ????? I dunno why I did this but what da hey.

Sorry for moving all into the S a few weeks back. I told you what would happen though. Now that I am out, it should go back up. :sick:
 
Told ya so.

I move out of 100% S and spread out and S goes back up.

Well, I knew the 25% into F wasn't going to pan out but gave it a shot.

Today I moved that 25% into G. No IFT's remaining so.....

Now I wait for April. By then, who knows.
 
I just purchased 100% sentiment survey GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG fund.

Man this sucks. 1 IFT down the tubes.

With my luck the DOW will hit 13,000 this week.

Everybody else should BUY BUY BUY SSSSS.

(Disclaimer: This is not meant as financial advice. Your results may vary.)
 
Now I am really stuck in a bad situation.

Currently in 100% G

Sentiment says buy S.

1 IFT left.

Only the 8th of April.

Oil over $110 and doesn't seem to be a reason for this.

Probably have to "man up" and buy S. :worried:

But that doens't mean I gotta like it. :mad:
 
I feel your pain, I am trying to find a good entry point knowing the market may tank any day... over bought, oil at 2 year highs, oh my :(
 
All of us S funders need to get together and collectively "will it" to go up.

That is my latest strategy with no IFT's left.:nuts:
 
So, since I have joined this BB, which was three months ago, at the end of each month I have had a huge urge to move everything into G. I figured, protect it, wait and see what would happen and then get back in. So far, each of these three months ended up. Then the first 2-4 days intot he following month have had massive declines. Confirming that I should have moved into G. Sure this is only a three month trend but does anybody here feel like going G at the end of each month? I know I asked this once before but.....three months in a row now and instead of being up 6-7% I am only up 2% due to fallout at the beginning of the month. It's starting to wear me thin as I really do need one of those 15% years. So far I am at about 6.5%

Probably just ranting/venting here. Hindsight 20/40.

I just took a look at the AT, there are a few members in the top 50 that have only made two IFTs since Jan. 1. Perhaps you're trying to time it to exactly? Many folks like to follow the heuristic of being all in at the end of the month, that way you can get out and back in during the new month.
 
Well, this market is pretty much fracked up. There really is no upside in the next couple months that I can see. It took me about 5 months to get a gain of 6% and that has been wiped away in days. Not the kind of market to be in for me. Some people like buying the dips. Well, have at it. The dips are going to NOT be new highs but the lows will keep dropping. JMHO.

Yes I know, the sky is falling the sky is falling. I feel like I have seen this before in 2008.

Are we going into the double dip recession? Hey, I don't know but if I were to put a percentage on it, I'd say I am at 60% yes.

Does anybody still think the next week, two or three has a bright side to it. Let me know. I'll be moving everything out of S in the next hour. Oil $, Greece, Europe, QE2,etc, etc. The overall picture is bleak.

Actually, if you read what most people are posting on this site, then you'll find a lot of people are believing in a short term rally coming up. Asia and Europe are mostly flat today, so you might want to at least hold off until the first couple hours of trading to put in your IFT. Ya know, see which way the wind's blowing.;)

That is all nice and fine, but I have plans to go on vacation next week, so If I leave the account S fund hoping for a rebound next week, I will have very little time or ability to make a change. So today or tomorrow I have to move or let it sit and hope for the best by the following monday. The way this thing is going by then I will have lost another 6%. I can't absorb another 6% loss. But I'll be honest, I know that if I move out of S fund and into G fund, next week will see a 5% gain. Which still means a loss of 11% for me.

I'm completely fracked.

Hows Okinawa? I was stationed there in 1990.
