I fund has broken the 50 dma. My system would have me sell it and buy C or S fund since they're still above the 50. Im only 25% in I fund so im not sure I should spend an ift on that.

hoping for the S&p to test the 50dma and hold. Then I can go in 100% !!
 
Well, I haven't posted in a while. Been on vacation etc but I'm still watching the markets. Not much to do though. All funds have a buy including the F fund. The S fund is near its 50dma and I is hovering close too. I'm already out 50% so it would take a big break to get me all out like breaking the 200 dma. I expect a break lower soon but I've been expecting that for a while. RSI values are mid range too.
 
S and I funds are below their 50dma right now. c and F are above it. So, if we close this way I will move to 25C and 25F as per my system.

Well there no good place to hide as all funds are now below their 50 dam's including the F. My system has me in at 50% in a bull market...50dma above 200dma...
So, I'll keep my holdings for now. If the 200dma is broken I can sell the other 50% even in a bull market. That is quite a ways down.

If RSI's get below 30 I'll be looking to buy!

Finally, we're getting a little pull back. I'm expecting a full buy signal soon. An RSI under 30 is a buy (20 is a strong buy) and 100% buy in a bull market (50% in a bear). But, we are also nearing the 200dma on the S fund so I'll be looking for a bounce around there before I jump in.

This is finally getting exciting...
 
I know buying when a market is declining is risky, but when someone (like me) finally consolidated all scattered IRA's etc into one cash IRA account for simplification, dollar cost averaging money back into the market on days like yesterday or maybe even today is fine as they are long-term investments.

Shouldn't you be on a full buy today?

Maybe a dead cat bounce and then back down?

Looks like that's what's happening. The I fund is getting really close to a buy. RSI is just above 30 and it needs to bounced at its 200dma which it hit today.

S and C funds need to drop a little more I think.

Still waiting a little more of a drop. My strong buy clicks in on a RSI under 30. The last few times we got this close we bounced and never got to the 30 so... It's not a fool proof way. Also combined with the bounce around the 200 dma on the S fund we could bounce here. I would like a break through it and then a bounce for the perfect setup.
