I decided AGAINST pulling out. I'm in stocks still .

same here. Got caught with 30% in C and 30% in S last week. I have 40% in F that can me moved into C and S at a later date. New contributions are going into C and S and will dollar cost average until I see a point where I can move F into equities or cash out of equities and go back to swing trading...

moving to relative safety.
I feel an odd vibration in "The Force". I think a pullback is here.
Moved to:
G= 30%
F= 40%
C= 10%
S= 15%
I= 05%.
I feel a rumble from deep inside the bowels of this market- and I'm going to just back away slowly now and see what is about to happen.

What the heck.
Going wild- 20% C fund, and the bulk/ 80% into the S fund.
Yeee-haw.

Well, Monday was officially my last day, after 32 years of service.
I slept in yesterday, and again today.
Tomorrow I think I will.... sleep in and play with the dog.
Life is good.

That’s it- I’m chickening out.
Had a great run up for months. Taking my cash and stepping to the sidelines for a breather.
Going 70% G, 15% F, and then 5/5/5 into CSI.
Enjoy.

Congratulations on your retirement. The first two weeks feel like your on vacation then after that reality kicks in. Enjoy.
I understand jumping to the sidelines but it's a pretty big drop today.

Now THIS is a tough decision.
So I’m sitting mostly on the sidelines, having jumped out Thursday and took the hit that day.
Now the P&F is showing exactly half retracement since the last swing up. Six “O”’s.
Does that signal time to jump back in? Or is there a new downward plunge starting here?
If it’s just a normal pullback, today would be a good day to jump back in.
But it doesn’t exactly feel like a normal “wave” pullback to me. It feels more like the beginning of a good, solid 10% or 20% fall (The season) fall-back.
Let me try and attach a P&F picture to show you. I’m on my iPhone now- so I may have to switch computers to get this to work.

What I'm not seeing is the depth /volume I'd expect to see if we are really at a bottom. I'm going to take a pass today, and not try to jump onto this spot.
Nothing wasted by waiting a day for more clarity. I'm sticking to my safety position, at least for today.
Here is the pic, showing the re-tracement and the lack of volume that I would have expected if this really s the bottom.

On the other hand- here is the $EMW (Wilshire 4500), which mimics the "S" fund.
It's exactly where it would be, IF this is just a quick consolidation before another move up .
I'm sooo torn....(But I'm going to sit at least one more day).

Interesting indeed.
I guess there are far more folks doing ETF’s these days than regular traders doing the actual stocks.
Thanks for those charts.Similar threads
