make our decisions. Yours very much included!!

Me? I think I need a little proof of the next up.

Missed the noon cutoff today, so tomorrow will be a
watch and hope day!!

The dollar gained against the euro and the yen Tuesday in New York as a ratings downgrade of an Abu Dhabi bank led to renewed credit concerns, sending investors to the safety of the greenback.

It's hard to trade when you get side-swiped by the news.

It happens. I just wonder if this news was enough to reverse the dollar back up, or if this will just be a blimp on pullback radar. We do have an outside day forming, and while the dollar is off the day's highs, if it closes above yesterday's high, that could be it for the pullback.

I'll be glad to assume your tracker position - thanks. I was wondering where you were long.

I don't know if that was directed at me, but I'll use it as an opportunity to complain about the 9 spots I fell on the Tracker yesterday when the I-fund group passed me by again.

I would have moved to the I-fund myself last week when the dollar hit the 200-day EMA, but I was out of IFT's.

I have today and tomorrow to try to get over +30% for the year, then I'm out.

Are you kidding me Tom? I've dropped like 50 spots even though I've been gaining! All those new folks you've been adding to the tracker keeps pushing me down...:D
 
:laugh: LOL - yeah, sorry to complain about my position. Me and Birch have been battling for position on the tracker weeks now.

Maybe we can delete your current account and start a new one? You'll join the new members. :)

My money's on you in 2010.

I'll keep my position as a reminder of what happens when I Buy & Hold in a Bear Market, then disbelieve & hide under the rug in a Bull market. :cheesy: Back then I was reading over 20 blogs a day and most of those folks (although brilliant) were wrong.

It's amazing how much I've learned in 2009, I've got enough battle scars to last me the next 20 years. :blink:

Tom,
You have had a great year. Are you going to offer a premium service? :)

LOL - I get asked that by people all the time, and I say, "Why? Have you not seen my return the last few years?" :laugh:

But it's nice to finally get a good one under my belt.
 
Just an observation

The large caps appear to be out perfoming the mid, small, & micro caps today.
 
It feels like an eternity since the markets were open and I've been going through withdraws. I need a fix and may sell my SIRI early so I can get back into the ROTH IRA game, chase some charts and make me some moola. :D

I think my Hollywood squares chart broke their website. It's frozen on me several times so I may have to cut out some of the less weighted I-Fund charts.

Now that I have 5 systems to follow perhaps this will help alleviate my addiction?
