im back! had a little break, life changes etc.

I moved half of my fund out on the 16th of march, 50% G 25% C 25% S just at the perfect time i think. sorta scared a bit, but it keeps going up, i just hope i get it out at the right time

Keep on teaching me the ways the market, you guys and gals have taught me alot on this site. thanks again.

If your heart stops i can help you, if you ask me a question about stocks ill cringe!

Medic72,

I am new here and like you very much a "sponge" for information.

What for you is/are the deciding factors for exiting back to G?

I also Got in on 16 Mar.................what is the exit point?

Sy Harding would tell you that, "we would not expect the rally to end until bullishness reached 55% and bearishness dropped below 25% which normally takes several months. Enjoy the heat for as long as you can endure it. An audacious forecast; in the months ahead, the fear of being in will be replaced by the fear of being out. The economic climate is being transformed from bleak to bullish at one of the most rapid rates ever. There is massive liquidity waiting on the sidelines and the afterburners are starting to kick in.

Birhtree AKA Doc,
for the record, I currently don't see the light in trying to time rallies but I am still learning. Until I find some information/method such as Coolhand using sentiment etc., I don't feel confident in this market doing anything really but I despise sitting in the G fund!

 

[Medic72]

My original plan was to ride it to 800 and get out, but after the response to obamas speech i decided to hang in there a few more days. Fridays really scare me, so I'm not sure what I'm going to do, ill be upset if i move it back to the g fund and it keeps going up. i think that the worst part is over, it is just a gut feeling, so for what its worth I'm going to let it ride for a bit.

Your feeling concerning the (G) are shared by many. The light and reality
of both Bull and Bear Markets come to be known through the following saying;
"Markets don't go straight up, nor straight down". Through making the
right decision more then the wrong one, you can outperform the C,S and
I Funds returns. In a Bull Market, its like fighting a battle between small
gains and big gain. In a Bear Market its like fighting against big losses and
breaking even. Granted, this is extremely difficult with Limits and a Bear
Market to contend with. But all you have to do is look at the top 5 in the
AutoTracker to see the possible benefits of good timing, even in this very
difficult environment.Your confidence will rise as the market rises. Just
don't wait too long to take advantage of the low prices, otherwise, you'll
have some regrets that you didn't take a chance.

Prayers and hearts are with you Medic... as you pointed out, the most important thing: "we all got out ok"
