Sounds good. I wanted to be sure my no chat account move message was set up right before I added a talk message. I'll sit in "G" till Friday before I post an account change effective next Monday. And since my change will surely send my selected fund plummeting, so I'll post in time for everyone else to bail out.

in the water but below the waist today
20 % C 20 % S 60 % G cob 3/26/
No single positive reason rather than the desire to do something and hoping the markets don't bounce back too much this afternoon so I can catch the off market buy. i

 

[offtrack]

As planned got in on a losing day it appears. Will try and compound losses by moving to a 50 % I and G --- wishful thinking being that late volume will rebound andl create a positive Fair value for tomorrow in I

 

[offtrack]

in for a dime, in for a dollar Didn't catch late afternoon support I hoped for in the markets yesterday. Whenever Bernanke speaks I cringe. Given Greenspan's confident posture, he could lie like the piper and get everyone to follow. Bernanke's hedging isn't giving anyone much confidence. Can only pump a little more in and hope for the bounce.

:laugh:
It's easy to double our returns when we're working with negative numbers!

 

[offtrack]

Didn't like the market play today at all. I'm out of the water. Bulls should be back on track now.

 

[offtrack]

Time for a new approach. Absolutely no logic to this move
50%F 50%I cob 3/30/07

 

[offtrack]

I went 100% G today. I expect the market to be positive tomorrow but I'm down a little from last week and need my penny more than the risk.

 

[offtrack]

Went 1/2 in F and 1/2 in G. I don't like the hourly volatility in the AGG. Reminds me more of an options chart, but I am planning on waiting for stocks till midweek. Like some others here I'm waiting for a the larger correction before a slower upswing.

 

[offtrack]

100% G cob 4/10/07 Still out of touch with the market reasoning so going for the penny

 

[offtrack]

I'll start trickling a little in again. I'm overall bearish since that is my nature but I liked the way market acted on sales reports and some of the early earnings reports. Jobless claims up should keep Fed at bay for a few days. Market needs something to push it one way or another but I'm bored waiting.

 

[EW_ret]

Please add commas (or ; or /) to separate the fund percentage allocations when you make an entry in your account. Its hard to read and mistakes can be made. I see a percentage and adjacent to the right is a fund. Its easy to associate the two but this would be in error. Your cooperation would be appreciated.

This was your post:

10% I 5% C 85% G cob 4/12/07

This is how I edited it.

10% I, 5% C, 85% G cob 4/12/07

 

[offtrack]

will do

 

[offtrack]

Tax Time and I think I'll run back and hide till Tuesday. 20% F, 80% G cob 4/13/07

 

[offtrack]

Still goofing around waiting for a buying opportunity
10% F, 80% G, 10%I cob 4/18/07

 

[offtrack]

30% F, 50% G, 20%I cob 4/19/07 dribble a little more in I to maybe catch the bounce

 

[offtrack]

Please disregard IFT for 4/25 since I can't seem to type in the correct numbers

Haven't been chatting much but I have been reading many posts and doing homework. Hopefully I'll contribute more in the future.
