Whipsaw's Account Talk

OK, rebalanced to 100% S COB today... was close to noon, not sure if I had made it; checked out The Official NIST US Time: since the Naval Observatory Time site wasn't coming up and it was pretty much in sync w/my system time. Sooooo, I returned to the Interfund Transfer home to find this:
"You have an interfund transfer request being processed for 02/27/2015 which cannot be changed because the deadline for changing or cancelling has passed. " So I'm pretty sure my change made it in!

Fully invested in the S Fund for the beginning of the month. Watching closely, JTH paints a good picture of a potential dip/pullback... staying nimble with an extra trade.

Looking for a pullback before reentry!

What do you think last week was? :cheesy:

It seems going 100% S was a good move, for today at least; pretty good pop this morning, did something happen?

1st of the month, but I'm not liking the lack of effort at 18,250....might be some pullback after lunch..... a positive day is nice!

I like to see the F Fund diving for the deck when stocks are moving higher, an inverse correlation and gut check of sorts.

Yes, but I didn't have any moves left - SO!

Rally to the close!

Broke into the 290's on the Tracker, 0.8% behind the S fund!

The board is quiet again... Are we going down as the all time high was yesterday (profit taking), or is there something else in play?

Yesterday was a continuation of the rollercoaster ride we had last week. Friday was just a news driven bump in that road. I expect it to be like that this week also -- finishing flat. Hey, it's consolidation giving us some more wiggle room up to the top Bollinger band.

I think the days to watch are next Mon & Tue. Monday is going to give us a start-of-month effect (up/down ?) followed by a Tuesday quick reversal. Question is which day is the fake out. My 2 cents -- they're all I have left.

Today is the quick reversal from yesterday's rally. The question is where we go from here? Is today the fake out or was that yesterday. I don't know. I'm guessing we bounce up and down for the rest of the week. Comments?

MJR's thread has an article re. Cramer and Yellin, volatility leading into the next FED meeting, pending interest rate hikes. Might be a good idea to pick an out on an up day prior to mid-month...

I think that I'll be just a little more patient and here comes the pull back that I was waiting for..........

Mostly dip-buyers making moves on the AutoTracker... Either we climb out and then I'll take some off the table, or its sticky pants mode again. #:-/

Futures are up pretty strong this morning... things that make you go Hmmmmmmm....

 

[Cactus]

Might be a good time to sell on an up day if you're looking to get out. I'll probably bail to G either way because I'm distracted by family medical issues right now.

 

[pmaloney]

Good luck and best wishes.

Europe is up a nice bit. We are floundering, with some weak data points coming out this morning. I'm not sure if the green is going to hold today.

IFT to 100% G COB today. Hope to get a little more altitude by the close.
