Frixxxx's Account Talk!

[Frixxxx]

Thanks Steady,

BTW, for the other readers out there....I am not on the tracker.......

I did well last year but fell off due to not signing in.....I will never be the best, luckiest or just down right, well RIGHT, all the time.


Please excuse me for my flaws......:laugh:

We now return you to your show.....already in progress.

70% - C
30% - S

COB today

Yes everyone....I'm in the market next week.....looking for 2-4%.

Today's action could be nothing more than the big money being tucked away over the long weekend. I happen to believe you will get your pop.

 

[Frixxxx]

No Pop Today.....But waiting.

I think I will stay until 920 and then look for an exit.

70% C - 30% S

I was on the wrong side of the DOW today.........oops.....

Anyway, Everyone knows I'm in the FOREX running and I would like to say that 110 Pip (USD/JPY) drop last night really boosted my coffers.

I'm looking at the Euro and Pound to balance things out on their return to their highs. Specifically the Euro.....looking for 1.5700

Anyway, confused, daunted, wish you knew more about investing?

READ @ www.investopedia.com

Man, they helped me define and clarify terminology and taught me to read charts. They can help you 2

I WARNED YOU THIS WAS COMING:

http://www.tsptalk.com/mb/showpost.php?p=224048&postcount=238

Never be in the market with Frixxxx!!!

If I wasn't so glad to have the FOREX market (I HIT MY 94 AND 92 targets USDJPY) , I'd have slit my wrist on this decision to go in.......

So when you see my pain threshold hit and I announce I'm getting out....JUMP IN!

:blink::blink::blink:

 

[Frixxxx]

Still 70% C 30% S

I see a few of the veterans are coming with me......I guess "Objects are farther than they appear" should be on my market decisions.

Anyway, top poster today and I am tired, but I'm glad I got to chat a little more...I did a ton of software loads today which allowed me the time to throw up some stuff.....


Have a great night all.

BTW...Nnut, I finally got to cool vids last night and you made me cry....three times.....I watch that Star-Spangled-Banner and was overwhelmed....I may have to hunt them down and professionally record that. I also watched the safety video with the speeding (twice)...OMG....I died every scene....except the ending was kinda lame........They should have put that part in the front.

 

[Frixxxx]

Still in for the ride: 70 - C & 30 - S

 

[Guest2]

Nice ride Frixxxx ! I'm in the seat behind ya ! Weeeeeeeeee ! :laugh:

 

[Frixxxx]

I'm out 100% - G

I'm locking, I think this bounce isn't living through tomorrow, maybe not today.... anyway, I'll lock my profits and get glory in the fall.

 

[Steadygain]

Today looks like an excellent day to LOCK IN

Good Job !!

I'm expecting the Markets to keep rising - settle some next week and then raise some more to a new rally high

 

[Mcqlives]

I also am staying in and looking (hopefully) for some sideways action or slight consolidation the next couple of days. 950 may be a possibility next week but where does it go from there? I am currently 100% I (licking my wounds over the past 2 weeks) and sticking in even though I am concerned about the strength of currencies vs the dollar (I think the dollar, although weak, will gain in comparative strength to other currencies over the next few weeks).

Good luck to all staying in!

 

[Guest2]

Locked in Half of my risk. We've been here before !

 

[Frixxxx]

Commodities are up, and dollar is down, I see a perfect storm occuring.

Defense sector is starting a major downsizing due to cuts in defense.

Look people, when the government takes money/jobs out of the economy, be afraid.

Green jobs turning brown or not even growing at all. Stimulus stalled and no rest for the wicked.:suspicious:

Mini real estate bubble occurring.

 

[Frixxxx]

Ok,

I did the most stooooopid thing ever....I'm not mad....well a little....but I NEVER had this happen to me.....

For those who know, I have two TSP accounts.

Civilian
AF Reserves

I posted yesterday that I was out....100%G

Well, I got into a hurry yesterday and when I went to do my transaction, I applied it to my AF Reserve account. Not my civilian account (the big one).

So, It is now lunch and I'm livid (at myself) because I have no idea where the market is and I realize I'm still in.

Then I'm off to yahoo. and If I clear another percent off of dumb luck, then so be it.....

But now I'm in for tomorrow as well....we'll see....maybe I get to ride with the big boys....

Peace all

 

[Guest2]

To err is human, to profit from it is devine ! Simple mistakes can surprise !

Trust me, that's how I made my last Grand ! :nuts:

 

[nasa1974]

Sometimes dumb luck is better than no luck at all.

 

[CapeChem]

I would love a boat load of dumb luck right now.....cuz if it werent't for bad luck i'd have no luck at all etc......

 

[Guest2]

What we do with our TSP accounts is not easy. If someone simply closed
their eyes to the Market and the World before making a IFT, then luck
would definately hold a large role in any results.

IFT restrictions increased the amount of luck that plays a part in our
gains, however, the majority of TSPTalk members prefer to make their
own luck through a multitude of methods.

By researching, reading, studying and learning,,, we shrink the amount
of luck that comes into play and turn it into a Informed Decision Benefit.
The harder we work, the more likely we'll be on the right side of a Decision.
And isn't that everyone's goal.

You'll hear some state; "they make their own luck". And to a very large
degree, I fully agree with that statement. Ultimately, no matter what the
method or depth of ones experience, Luck shall always play a part when
investing in the stock market.

That's why you'll see so often within our posts; "GOOD LUCK" !

 

[Frixxxx]

Out COB today....100%G


Double, triple, quadruple checked......Both accounts are "G"

Post more later

Good luck all!

 

[Steadygain]

Out COB today....100%G

Good luck all!

Looks like your getting out on a GOOD DAY.

I hate to see ya do that because it sets up a 'bad omen' and makes me wonder if the worse is coming sooner than expected.

I'd pretty much thought from the very start that this wave would last 2 or 3 weeks - so I'll probably hang on a little while. Being on the AT makes it a little harder because I usually never go with Percentage Gains - but rather start with a DOLLAR AMOUNT to end the year with. Now the waves are flowing way better than they'd done over the past 1 1/2 years and I'm hoping I'm back in the swing of things.

2 IFTs a month is hard to get use to.

GL to you too my friend. I think about you and Nina almost everytime I take 'My Baby' for a walk. I gave her a haircut over the weekend and she is incredibly beautiful.

When you said something about Nina falling at your feet in a ball after you got back from a longer absense .... I was really touched by that. The 2 weeks I was gone Ella - WOMAN THAT SHE IS - lost her appetite and was quite 'skinny' when I returned. Well I like her 'BIG' (not fat) but I like her being a good sized dog. Man did she ever bulk up after I got back; it's just amazing how 'IN TUNE' she is.

Well later man and congratulations on 'Raking it In'

 

[Frixxxx]

Congrats to all in the market today...hope it holds....I have a week until I'm elligible to get back in.

Anyway, my perspective:

ETHICS, How much are yours?​

This is a rant about ethics, mine, yours, whatever. Please remember that if you do not keep things right or wrong, black or white, you will have deviation. If you can morally live with a lot of deviation, then this discussion may seem a little off. However, if deviation is kept small, you might go, Hey, I can't handle this and I want my change now!

Housing​

The housing markets show that there is less inventory. I have six friends in the real estate market and they will tell you that if a bank doesn't list it, it is taken off the inventory list. Unethical, Market manipualtion by banks is still rampant. Believe me, the banks, unethically, sold to illegal immigrants who just aren't in the country anymore. And believe me, the only people buying houses are brokers......They will be put in investment holdings. Oh, by the way, a biker friend of mine will be renting a house from a Chinese national in September.

Unemployment​

We are now looking at 15% unemployment in California. 15% people - you realize that is like the state of Maryland being unemployed. Ethical paranthetics: (It says 11% online but - YOU CAN'T handle the truth. We can't possibly track real numbers, wait a Census is coming up next year!!!!!)

Accounting​

Now, can I bring up restructured debt?...sure I can. Ford said it was profitable today. WHAT???? YOU HAVE 10 BILLION IN DEBT!!! If you have debt, you can NOT be profitable. YOU ARE IN THE RED. You spent more cash than you brought in. YOU ARE NOT PROFITABLE. ENRON tried this once!!!!!

I was told once, the easiest way to get rich is to find something that the government can mandate, and you sell this to the next level....The driver side mirror....Do we need it? No, we can just turn our heads and see. But no, it is now a required "safety" item. Oh and by the way, if you actually turn your head and look, "obects may be right where they appear!"

Ethics - Am I ethically correct in writing this? Should I not say anything? By the way, am I ethically bound to tell you that the United States was never a democracy? That it was designed to be a republic? Nnut gave me that one...Thanks Nnut! (He posted the video here on TSPTalk)

Anyway, Ethics, If we could get our accounting laws in order, meaning you are either profitable or not, then maybe we can actually invest in strong businesses and support the economy.

Got Ethics?
