coolhand's Account Talk

[Uptrend]

This is being talked about on different boards. Some think a big bank failure may be in the works, perhpas in Europe, perhpas in our backyard, and as such may be a safety play. I see a slight bounce back this AM.

I'm hearing chatter about the new NFA changes going into effect end of this month. Some think it's to protect retail brokers and that something is about to blow up.

Yup, I got the email from TOS.

I'm thinking Asia or maybe Blankfein, for doing God's work and all.

I have an account with Forex.com UK and I haven't seen anything on this. I read the site above. So, is there a brokerage fixing to implode? Or, does the NFA just want to get rid of trading currencies in the US?

Thanks,

Steve

I got the notice yesterday, so you will see it soon. I don't think a brokerage is in danger of imploding. I'm thinking a small country? I really don't know.

Just another TA view for you FOREX folks.

I just posted a blog with our top 25% charts. It could be an indicator to watch.

Indeed, Birchtree said once that he was investing for his grandchildren. While admirable, that timeframe exceeds those timeframes of many TSP members and creates a completely different view.

WOW!!

I didn't know he said that -- gosh :toung: I didn't even know he had any.

He's always reminded me of my father to some extent.. now all the more.


That reminds me -- I'm in the process of redoing my will and in the event something happens to my whole family....

I want 50% to go to something Majorly Pro Earth -- and have no idea what to say?

Any ideas --- on anything that would promote the health of our Planet??

 

[Birchtree]

I don't have any grandchildren yet - but I'm always future oriented. Time is the best indicator for investing. I remember when I was in my early twenties I opened an account with Chase that allowed me to reinvest dividends. This account was designed for my childrens educational opportunities - and I wasn't even married yet. Think about tomorrow not today. My daughter recently asked me a few investment questions from her MBA program that she didn't understand - in the course of conversation I told her I was going to leave any money I didn't spend to my grandchildren. That's the plan. They'll be adults by the time that rolls around.

Thanks Birch ,
As long as I'm not left in the dark -- I won't have to respond in a violent nature.

Time is the best indicator for investing.

That is certainly one thing that has been proven over and over.

DCA and Buy and Hold !!

I remember when I was in my early twenties...
When you had to walk 4 miles in knee deep snow to get to school...

...when cars didn't have air conditioning .... seat belts...

...when coke really had 'coke'....

Yeah ....trust me I've heard it all before ....

....plus you're not much older than me :cheesy:
and I wasn't even married yet.

One account with Van Guard states: To be distributed to all my Grandchildren Equallly.

Wife and Kids hate it --- cause none are married and have no one to even consider.

Like I told them -- give it time -- when the account really grows to something worthwhile --- it will be there. (I'm not changing it)

Think about tomorrow not today.
Well here I'll say , 'Why in the hell do you have any credit card bills'?

My daughter recently asked me a few investment questions from her MBA program that she didn't understand -
Birch I bet your heart really swelled up with 'pride' when that kind of thing happens. See how things work out in the long run.

in the course of conversation I told her I was going to leave any money I didn't spend to my grandchildren. That's the plan.
Well Birch -- you'd better change that plan. I could care less about leaving a portion to the 'grandkids' ...

But the bulk should go to Buzz

and I want that signed and notorized by the end of next week.

They'll be adults by the time that rolls around.

Well for NOW -- you do what I tell you to do...

when 'that time' rolls around you can always make some changes.


I'm making my changes NOW -- was previously set up that a bunch of my relatives would get the money if something happens to my immediate family...

...no more .... screw that ....

50% is going to something that honestly promotes Nature or the Health of our planet

30% is going toward 'Missions'

20% is going to a Children's Hospital


Well later all -- oh and thanks for thread CH

 

[Minnow]

Forgot to congratulate you on that front-running job with the SS's Coolhand. Nice work my friend. Happy trading!!

 

[Birchtree]

Buzz says to me - why do people sell out at the bottom? HoneyB, it has to do with the emotions of fear and panic and not having faith in the process. I did use some of my credit card balance availability to dump more dollars into the market last fall - a good use of credit if you ask me. Now I'm in the process of paying it all back with some of my market gains. Everything is going on margin which is tax deductable. I only wish I had an extra $1M to dump down the well - maybe on the next cycle.

I still don't believe in man made global warming but the banksters are definitely thieves.

**************************************
In a way, I wish I had bailed too. I looked at the calender date and it says 11-18, without thinking, so I just said hold tight DannyBoy, you still got half a crazy month to go? :embarrest: I forgot to check the holidays + vacation, this month! Actually there's only about 6 working days left this Month for me. So, I'm stuck and I guess I'll just lower my head and charge, Birch style, and I'll crash into the wall while, " waiting to steal home.

" I've done that before and " What doesn't kill you will make you stronger?" (this time richer?). :nuts:

well do u know what the elitist consider to be healthy for the planet and them? they have been saying this since 1990. They want it all for themselves and with just enough slaves to serve them.
Revelations does tell us that 1/4 of the world population will be destroyed at first, then more.

"A total population of 250-300 million people, a 95% decline from present levels, would be ideal," Turner stated in 1996. (this was actually at a world environment conference speech in san fran with other world leaders from what I recall)

Coolhand,

Looks like the SS's all went back to a buy today except $BPCOMPQ which is just a hair away from a buy. What are your thoughts? Low volume rally on Wednesday and Friday?

Valkyrie,
Those in 'Power' and most certainly those that would most be considered the 'Elitist' have displayed this mentality long before 1990.

BUT - I sincerely appreciate you trying to identify with my feelings.

What GOD does to the Planet is not a concern to me. I believe anything and everything stemming from GOD is perfect.

SG the Truth shall be in you.

THANK YOU !!

My heart has been troubled -- so you honestly can't know how perfect this message was -- and all the more the timing.

God bless you my friend -- may you know His Peace and Joy.

CH -- sorry about taking your thread.

Well good night all -- heading home at last
