DreamboatAnnie's Account Talk

Market is just too volatile. One day its up and the next its down. I entered last Wednesday thinking we were going into a short bounce. Now must decide on just exiting for rest of month. I missed exiting F fund today (work) and it's a real dog and no idea why I thought it might bounce a bit. I want to throw in the towel and wait for market to get above 50MA and get less volatile. But I doubt that happens anytime soon. :sick:

I noted (for S&P500) comments from market talking heads that historically, specific April entry is between 6-8 and exit April 28-29; but, that April is an up month generally. its not looking like an up month generally this time but, there's looking to be a great chance of a small gain between the historical entry/exit points. Naturally, I entered too soon and am just hoping to break even.
 
Hi MMK,I did the same thing...jumped in a little early. But right now, I am now positive/in the money on the current buy-in but still in the hole overall. But, it looks like market is starting to price in earnings and moving up. I am concerned because yesterday there was a little selling going into the close but there were some buyers that kept from dropping too much. I get it... Some people have lost enough and just want out. But I do hope these next couple days provide some gains.

I don't expect new highs that would go above the March high, but I am hopeful (but doubful) we will get up to the second highest high in March.... we will see. Best wishes to you and everyone! :D:D:D

Market has risen a bit since I posted charts. I also am staying in.
S fund up .26%, C = .25%, I =.90% and F =.46%. F could go up more as chart set up looking good now and 10 year yield is dropping a bit. :D

PS. Felix, I like your avatar... TSP silver. I have some of those! Thank you Burro (RIP) & Tom! :smile:

Thanks! I like my silver but looking a little tarnished. LOL…I did not have any silver cleaner…at least not in the conventional bottle. Silver eagles are so beautiful so I bought a lot of those. 🙃👍

That's cool felixthecat!

Yes, Burro was definitely the motivating factor behind that TSP Talk silver purchase.

I started to give them away as prizes after everyone got their purchases, but I'm regretting that a bit. I wish I kept more. :sick:

I was able to get the silver die from the company (after they went belly up) so maybe we should make more before silver goes over $100/oz. :D

I just wouldn't know how to get them made. Maybe a project for next winter.

I love TSP Silver ❤ Very shiny mirror finish and soooo purdy! I think I have two rolls...need to go look for them.... In a drawer. I would definitely buy more!

I do recall Burro made major efforts getting enough people to agree to buy so we could place an order. He was great at convincing folks! :D. He gave them as prizes and used them to pay off bets with TSP folks. He took his bets very seriously!
 
Here is a 1-minute, 2-day chart for today and yesterday (C fund) showing a bit of sell off during last 15 minutes or so of the day.
Nope...I don't like it...
S fund pretty much looks the same.

I know the last 15 minutes were bad but RSP (equal weight S&P) was up all day and finished above yesterday's high. I'm thinking (hoping) the weakness we saw today was Netflix (and FaceBook) related. Slow Stochastics on C and S funds are above 20 and pointing up!
 
Here are charts a bit early. Best wishes to everyone!

Just a bit ago, I dropped the 20% I had in F Fund...meant to drop earlier when it failed to bounce, but just kept missing deadline (work) so finally did it. For the first time, I tried rounding up on my existing investment to add 1% more into C fund. It worked! Woo.hooo.. So now 24%S, 26%C for rest of month (G50%)

PS. Don't like candles forming today, but decided to stay in because Slow Sto looks promising... But anything can happen. I may star to reduce exposure on S and C fund soon...just to pocket some gains.

Here are COB charts... Another sick day! :sick: ;damnit
C fund low basing...S fund went through it a bit....and all this during earnings season. Did something bad happen while I was working???? FOMC coming up two Tuesdays from now (May 3-4). So much for pocketing a small gain to try digging out of the hole! Lesson: Exit the next time RSI-2 touches 70--- no matter what! Forget the Slow Sto! Eeeeeeeee....

Okay...just ran last few mins of Liz Clamen on FBN. Jerome Powell spoke and scared investors and yield on 10 year rose nearly to 3%.

I stopped watching around 10 am CT when I posted charts earlier today... And it just plunged all day! :pat: Just UGLY! All charts look the same!
