Bquat's Account Talk

[Bquat]

I hope so but I'm not feeling it Bquat. My instinct tells me there is some further downside although today could muster some gains based on more positive news out of Asia....but I'm no expert.

So far I'm not seeing any volume commitment with this 2% gain but I have 40 minutes before I graph it and it can increase as this level holds.

Yeah that deadline is a royal pain in the tail. I read a lot of talk about only 2 IFT's per month, but the real problem for me is the requirement to have your IFT submitted by 12:00 noon. IMHO the deck is stacked against us, trying to figure out what the market will do for the last 4 hours of the day. You would think that with the TSP being such a large part of our retirement package, they would level the playing field and allow us to submit IFT's (and I'm ok with only 2 per month) all the way up to 4:00 pm.

Of course, when was the last time our government did something to benefit the folks?

TSP bored wants you to contribute and leave the $ alone and never or seldom move it, pretty easy to deduce their reasoning. Less fees and PROBABLY BIGGER BONUSES FOR THEM. ha ha

They hate participants like me, but love guys like Birchtree (how long now has BT been 20% I and 80% C ??) have u been here that long Bquat?? ; )

My Ifund gained 1.53 yesterday. Now all I have to do is get back the other 8%. Of course if I had moved 100% G on the 10th I would be in the Top 50 now - something told me that we'd get a couple more days of gains - right! :blink:

So will today be another pump and dump in US equities? I after reading Tom's column I tend to think we will see the double bottom but until China starts to recover its a risky market. I've got a toe or two in the water but ready to jump out if need be.

I can remember when he was 100 C, I think? Where is he by the way?:worried:

I don't know but pretty sure you are right he was 100C when I joined and he has made 1 IFT in the last 5 years. ; )

Well nobody wants to feed my little fish. At least there's no panic volume today but no buy commitment either. The PPT may be able to fight on Friday with this lower volume. Just mho.:cheesy:

Will the pennant break north or south?

It is a bear pennant but I was hoping it would break up with that bottom tail. I don't know but the main thing I was trying to show was decreasing volume and that a green candle with more than 100.0 M was needed::worried:

That has the look and feel of the NEW SIDEWAYS pattern

Well, do we have a pumpn'dump double shot here or the meager beginnings of a recovery? Guess will know by 4pm.

ditto on all you said...but I see a repeat of August through September, 2011 for the SnP. Lets see...1123 to 2126 = 89% gain. 1867 to a 89% gain in four years would be 3530 for August of 2019.

Since Birch wasn't available I thought I'd fill in

FAB you did it. Now will it hold?

 

[Bquat]

Today was good but it's 60/40 we won't cross the Dead Cat Bounce line because it's so close to the bottom of the Longterm channel.:suspicious:

 

[Bquat]

For some reason I see code on the right 1/3 of the page. Should I try to edit.

Whoa nelly, not I.

Was looking 4 the dbl bottom (and still am). I made a little gains on yesterday action tho and all upward movement is certainly welcome. I was gambling a "full" recovery is not imminent (no V-bottom) -- and uh, I got no IFTs till Sept either.:embarrest:

So as I said so far there's no volume follow through even with the gap up to fill the gap down. Some are saying yesterdays up move was because one of the FED announced that the chance of a rate hike has subsided.:notrust: You would think if this was a recovery move volume would stay high. Still 60/40 no move over DCB:

 

[FAB1]

yup - despite its "happy days are here again" in fareast/ euro. things look mighty tepid about the Street.

hi-dollar is holding down the Ifund too in relation to good-tymes in Europe/ japan. mean!
