chemmie's account talk

Yes I think it could be a big giant headfake up and then back down for a retest...the top of the channel is now around 890-892. I agree with protecting your gains. Look at it this way....if you made 12% and ride G the rest of the year that is 14-15% gain for the year which we would all take!
 
Not me, I'll take that 15% times three - make it 45%. I mean that is how much I gave up in valuation on the downside. Well, gee, make that 60% gain to the upside. LaLA land is good.
 
My clown broker from Merrill told me that in 2006 my oceanic account appreciated to the tune of 123%. I have no idea what percentage gain was made in 2007 - but Ronald McDonald did tell me that I suffered a 79% drop in 2008 - that's a $1M haircut. But I have really only been devalued because all my assets are still intact. I did take a $172K profit in July 2008 but reinvested that profit and principle into 45 toxic waste finance companies. But the S&P was down around 58% so I'm content with the progress I've made off this bottom.
 
Birch--that sounds just plain ugly and i feel your pain just nowhere close to the magnitude. keep making progress is all any of us can do.
 
Well I do reinvest all my dividends and I plan to start doing some select buying in the near future and I'll get it all bak and then some. Sometimes no pain no gains.
 
my last few buys: deutsche bank at 25, alcoa at 7.61, us steel around 25 which are long gone from the portfolio as i try to keep gains. have you looked at CVY etf? I think it makes a good core holding.
 
not to toot my own horn but the high of 888 was right in the range I was looking at for a reversal...if you know of W.D. Gann's work this also coincided with a 720 degree move off of the 667 March low.
 
hello tsp friends, I didn’t mention which fund it was I fund 100% at 11.2 something IN, got out at 12.82 something, I regret I was not braver got as high as 13.50 something but I’m ahead so far, 1/3 of the year in.

I will be starting to sell my home in ga this month high 300s priced. I will be interested to see what kind of traffic I get with all this stimulus money for loans????? Im at a brac base, FT McPherson. It Closes 2011 sept.

If the economy is REALY GETTING better I should get some good flow...mmm

I say this because all the Jive talk about everything (eCONomy) HAS stopped getting worse and it a BOTTOM this exuberance has not been proven other than TALK.

Will see:sick::blink::worried:
 
We hit the top of the channel on the C fund this morning so if you're daytrading....i would short it and look for downside targets of 876, 865, 854, 836, 823, 791.

It would be easier to convince the FRTIB to give us 2 more IFT's a month and trade before 4PM.:D
 
I got into the stock funds today from all G. I am following my timing model here so I will hold 5 days and sell. This does look very topish to me however. still good on the trend following, very dangerous on the channel model.
