Whipsaw's Account Talk

I could use another day of small cap weakness to build more of my income base, sorry.

Its all good Birch, I'm looking for the bottom to drop out... that great flushing sound... blood in the streets as they say =:-O

Waiting patiently, biding my time, sitting still to run fast as the market meanders through the May weakness and into the June correction... maybe :nuts:

Made a little bit back today on the F-train; I do need to start buying real stocks and playing the dividend re-investment game! :D

Wait a minute Whipsaw. You hear that flushing sound too? It's just our life's savings as it's being sucked down the toilet...:(
 
Raven's Fan, the autotracker indicates you're 100% S since 1 April... is that still accurate?

I wish I could tell you but I recently joined a premium service and the terms of agreement do not permit me to discuss my moves. I am still able to discuss my opinions on the market, just not what fund I am in or when I moved to that fund. I hope you understand.

Ahhhh... now I get it, the mysterious dissapearance from the autotracker, all the pirates of the carribean banter w/DBA... I hope the paid service works for you, I would be curious as to your returns down the road, if that's not propriatary.

So if folks are properly positioned, then life savings wouldn't be sucked down the toilet, right?

Thanks Whipsaw, I am hoping it does well also. I don't think sharing my returns at the end of the year will be a problem. If I do well, the next logical question will be "Which service are you with". I look at that as free advertisement.

I have to say though the reason I joined the premium service was to help me identify entry and exit points. I can interpret all the charts and indicators but have difficulty with when to enter and when to exit. So the premium service will help me with that and hopefully make me a better trader. I certainly will be analyzing each move and compare it to my own conclusions to gain insight.

As for DBA and I, we will continue posting on the non-pay side of the forum. We consider ourselves part of the rabble and wear that badge proudly.

:laugh: Ride, ride my see-saw
Take this place on this trip just for me
Ride, take a free ride
Take my place, have my seat, it's for free

I worked like a slave for years
Sweat so hard just to end my fears
Not to end my life a poor man
But by now, I know I should have run

Looks like a bounce has ensued as JTH suggested... up, down, up, down. Not sure what the Fed Minutes will do today, still looking for further down action, Tom pointed out a bearish head and shoulders pattern; all things being equal, if there is more of the same through next week, looking to get back in for the last two seasonally strong days this month and be invested going into June.

This market has been tough on everyone. Just look at all the red...:confused:

No doubt; with the sideways movement it timing not suited to TSP trade limitations, it may be possible to scalp a percent on a dip but then you're done for the month! :-/

Now that sounds like a good strategy...at least for the next few months.
 
...and now for something completely different. I was playing one of my favorite albums, August and Everything After by Counting Crows; I am the Rain King came up and I remembered the live version with the lyrics for Thunder Road by Springsteen and I had to throw it out here! You gotta check this out... it has soul. :cool:

 
Took the day off from work to roof my garage... Man, the sun is HOT! F-Train making some gains today, holding position looking for a post holiday reversal.

Wishing everyone a great Memorial Day. God Bless Our Troops! Remember to thank our great citizens who have fought, and pray for those who gave their all, for this great nation. Lets not let that sacrafice go in vain, we must restore the freedoms we once enjoyed.
