RealMoneyIssues' Account Talk

I gave up looking for the breakout pattern to arrive...I was getting angry when there was never a solid direction...now I have joined the wishy-washy masses in accepting the daily non-direction that seems to be the new norm (at least this week).:cheesy::laugh::nuts:
 
I like your countdown to retirement calculator. I hope you don't refer to it too often. Its neat how you make this a part of your posts.

I actually borrowed the idea from KevinD so I can't take too much credit. And, no, I don't refer to it often as it is so far off :worried:

So, TSP... I am stuck in G and no seemingly good time to enter S without risking short term losses (hopefully only short term).

Waiting for a "sign"
 
Well, even though the market "seems" to be going down, I didn't jump into S yet. I am hoping that the markets will take a little more dive tomorrow and I will jump in tomorrow COB. I am also assuming that my IFT will happen as there might not be anyone to process it if there isn't a budget or CR... :nuts:
 
I think stocks will go up tomorrow. But that's just my gut and wishful thinking as well as observation of who and how many jumped in on the tracker.

also looks like they won't be down today either. The DOW is recovering nicely :sick:

Yeah, and it could drop a the end of the day. I just do what the smart people do and to hell with it! Even if it don't make sense to me. If it's working for them, it's good enough for me. :nuts:
 
Well, I needed to get out of G and into equities, so I jumped in with both feet... :)

100% I for now and see what I will do since this is my first April IFT. :nuts:

Good luck to all who are affected by the USG shutdown. :(
 
I think I need to start charging you for my advice so you can learn to appreciate it. :D You bought high again.:toung:

Lisa :D, it's about running towards trouble, not away from it. If the crowd sways to the buy side, who's left to buy and keep pushing stocks higher?

I might agree, but frankly Im confused! :blink:

Buying is not a singular event, one can buy, and buy, and then buy again.

That is exactly what I said. Stocks going down=people runnning away=time for us to buy. Isn't what most of the top 10 do? When the stocks drop, they buy equities, right? I should have jumped in when the stocks dropped. That is what I was telling RMI that he should have done.

That too. :D I was just picking on RMI because he jumps to G when equities start to lose value and then jumps into equities when it goes up in value.
