Anyone else looking at an entry today?

I gave it some thought this morning, but decided to wait a little longer. Right now I am only 25% in the F Fund. Tom's commentary this morning pointed out a bull flag in the F Fund chart as well as two open gaps above. With all the craziness going on in the political front, October promises to be very volatile, perhaps more than normal. (LOL call it the impeachment effect) So the only negative to standing pat is that I lose the opportunity to be invested in equities, going into October and still keep my two IFT's for that month, but if the F fund fills those open gaps and I move into equities on a big down day, I could be sitting in a pretty good spot.

So that's my gamble and as usual, juggling those IFT's once again. :nuts:

Good luck with your move into equities. :D
 
Yeah, not so much... I hate it when that happens, though I've seen this play before... reminds me of some lyrics:

'The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind; the kind that blindside you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday.' ISM what?

At any rate, due to events of the day, I didn't get to see any action past the open, until about 4pm, on Tuesday. Its only volatility, its only volatility, its only volatility... Sticky pants once again to get a work out.
 
Interesting... Gap down from yesterday was still open by the gap up this morning, which is now closed by further selling... :-/
 
Ok, so I was a couple of days early... another day or two like the last two and I'll be back in the black. Just imagine if we pushed to the upper side of the long term channels...

Have a great weekend everyone! :cool:
 
So far, so good. S fund gapped up above my entry last week, though C fund is still below. Futures were down, though the activity since the open is north and east, which I like. :D Rally to the close! :arms:
 
Significant resistance on SPY at the current level, same spot as last week and several reactions going back to the May top. Break on through to the other side!
 
hummm… classic song yes but a classic outcome.... hum...if we break on through to the other side, like in Classic Doors song, that would mean the outcome is death.:rolleyes: Eeeeekkk….. I don't think I want to break through that way! lol :laugh:

Best wishes to you all!!!!!! :D:D:D

(P.S. yes, I know there are differences of opinion on the meaning, especially use of psychedelic drugs etc, and reportedly some of his lyrics referred to drugs before being changed, but based on reading many of his poems and the Book, Break On Through to the Other Side, I think it means death. He wrote a lot about death.)

Sorry I have memory issues! The book was "No One Here Gets Out Alive"--I had to dig to find it. Read this more than 25 years ago... really good book and a must read if you like Jim Morrison and The Doors. :smile: I came to like him much more after reading this book as I did not come to listen to lots of music until years after he passed away. My favorite song is Riders on the Storm. Okie... sorry Whipsaw for going off kilter on your thread.. now I wanna post a song! :rolleyes:

Good song. Had to pull it up on my playlist.
 
Gotta love The Doors. My favorite related quote from Almost Famous 'Jim Morrison is a drunken buffoon!' My personal favorite is LA Woman, have to open the windows and drive a little faster when that pops on the car radio. :D
