sniper's Account Talk

lol true, I've always told folks it's not about knowing when to be invested, it's more about knowing when not to be invested.

i based my system mostly off being able to dodge major downswings, while not being scared out of a bullish market on day to day noise. I probably will never be the top 10 in the chart, because i won't be getting off right at the top of a rally, or out at the definite bottom, but it's a system that designed to stay on the same side as the trend and avoid getting slammed. I'll give my system 3 full years and see if it outperforms LMBF method in this time (what my goal was)

Anyway, In cases like 2008 and 2011, the downturn could be seen weeks in advance, but for some reason, people stayed in. So far when backtested it works like a champ. now to see if it happens in the future, when it happens (who knows when, we'd all be millionaires if we all knew for sure!)

Well said. Some people can see it, some can't.

Reminds me of the line in the movie: *I see dead people* :blink:

Hahaha!

Could be human emotion as one's worst enemy as well. Maybe they did see it, but tried to bottom pick and got burned.

I remember late last year when the weekly chart was looking bearish, and i got in for a week to try and catch a bounce I seen on the daily chart, only to get slammed and lose around 2% i didn't need to (my own greed and impatience overrode what my system told me to do which was stay out). This year I'm sticking with the system 100% and seeing where it takes me

Congrats whoever was long today, market gave a nice return!

 

[sniper]

Ain't that the truth. I think we're headed for a wave down. How far down is the big question.

Staying F fund for next week. Despite nice moves by major indexes, it didn't change much of anything in the weeklies, actually even more so tells me to get out.

And here's a picture of alana blanchard just because i felt like it

I'll be the first to "like".

60% C 40% I. Some allocation to I fund because I feel the dollar will start pulling back, giving fuel to I fund. Both charts are looking pretty good though, more so than the S fund.

Still a little surprised I got killed by F fund, but could be worse haha.

Folks, not to be a prude, if you can, please keep this forum work place friendly. I'm not trying to be PC but the reality is some folks can get themselves in trouble, we don't all have the same work environment. Yes I am on my lunch break...

haha ok. figured it was safe for work cause she's still fully clothed (technically), but you're right, some work environments are stricter than others

Thanks, I do enjoy coming in here for the TA during the day, I can't stop folks from posting in their personal threads I can only avoid going there during business hours, but then that deprives us of the TA during the days market action.

Is there something Wrong with a woman in a BIKINI? I really disagree that this is inappropriate, COM-ON!:suspicious:

I agree with you it isn't inappropriate but it doesn't matter what you and I think, it matters what others perceptions are within the work environment. With recent events with Basic Training Instructors and sexual harassment within the USAF, it's important to understand these things can get taken out of context rather quickly. It's within the same vein of why the political forum is off-limits unless specifically requested. In the end Sniper and others can do what they want to do, myself and others can easily avoid these type of threads during work hours, but if it were my choice, I'd rather have the option of enjoying the content of this thread at all times.

 

[nnuut]

I think that what ever can be posted on the internet should be allowed to be posted here! Who are you the I don't like it police! I like bikini girls, would you like to see some more? Are you the editor are you the one who decides what we can post are you? Are you the liberal that controls our freedom of speech. CACA!:nuts:
