What is different about today vs. yesterday? Was it profit taking? I just don't get it. Still in 100% S.

I'm still in too.
Yes, profit taking by high frequency traders definitely a component. I pulled some risk off the table yesterday and redeployed the profits in another manner today. Oil down may be playing a role in transports, time worked off some of the over extension. Honestly trying to understand why involves too many variables for me to consider.
I know there is strong upward momentum...dips continue to be bought...same story all year. Now we've got a couple of important psychological levels in the rear view. As Birch likes to say, there is more risk being out than in. At this time I agree.

Indeed, I've been contemplating that ACI play ever since you posted it. Looks like I missed a BIG move.
Shanghai Composite has gone parabolic overnight...cheers to those roped in. Alpine climbing is a risky sport with great rewards, enjoy the climb but always be prepared for a swift fall.
Overseas markets are looking good. In the US a few lagging indices made better pushes yesterday toward 52 week highs. We're at nosebleed levels and those wanting to protect their money will need caution. I'm optimistic this "triple witching Friday" will be profitable.

. Saw prices falling, so I stuck w/ the program and sold at $64.95. Still holding a moderately sized long position hoping we bounce back up!

Nice Mapper, Nice.
Thanks, I feel better about my leveraged ETF plays if I don't linger too long. This is the first time I've gone back to cash in my ETF account since Feb 1. Since then my trades have made: 3.97%, 9.73%, 5.37% and 8.10%. Now I'll be looking for another entry.
Seeing as we're nearing the the end of month and I haven't used my IFTs I decided to do a little rebalancing in my TSP account. I'm now sitting 45C 45S 10I. Diversified
in equity funds anyway. Incidentally, this is the exact allocation I use for my payday contributions.

Argghhh, network is s#$% today. tried posting like 10 times! Bought TNA at $64.21. Wanted in below $64 but network wouldn't let me
Still have a good chunk of cash available for further "dips".
I think the "dip" was yesterday afternoon. The small tick up at the end was a "showing of the cards". Obviously I'm bullish. Good Luck!
