Re: Signal

For what it's worth, I would not be surprised if my system gives a sell signal for tomorrow.

:blink: That's an eyebrow raiser. You're system has been a stalwart of staying long during this prolonged rally...Can you divulge roughly what character is changing to finally push it over the edge?

Re: Signal

A few down days and a certain percentage drop. I'm not saying it is going to happen. It depends on the close today.

My system might indicate a sell as well. Gotta keep a close lookout tomorrow, that's for sure.

Re: Signal

Lost 0.04% today. System is up 12.66% for the year.

Mine did not. Still on a buy.

 

[jkenjohnson]

Gained a whopping 0.03% yesterday. System is 12.68% YTD.

Still Buy S.

I don't think the S fund gained anything yesterday. S fund share price went from 23.4928 to 23.4924 for an actual loss of .0004 cents. Odd the ^DWCPF shows a gain and TSP doesn't though. Yesterday must of been their pay day and they shorted us.

I just use the DWCPF so that I don't have to wait for the actual S fund prices to calculate my signal. Any differences are ususally very minimal and over the long term are negligible.

Re: Signal

Several people jumped fully into the stock funds today. Only a few went 100% G.

I've become so much of a contrarian that I read this and chalk it up as another reason to get ready to sell.

I see. Thank you for the clarification.

I would hate to be chasing the rally now. My 2 cents worth.

Agreed, but the same could have been said 2 months ago. I still like being in but gotta be ready to bail.

Very true.

I am really getting tired of this sideways trading we have been stuck in for a while.

Um, did I miss something or did the SPX just make a new high yesterday?

We'll lose it all back today and/or the next couple of days and start all over.

RMI, Ken must be overdue on his hopium booster

We finish the day up, OK? Good. The manure truck got a flat tire this morning but it's on the way.
