Ugh another great day on stocks

Hope tomorrow will be a rebound. We need a good 100 point jump. If stocks fall apart tomorrow. Might go 100-G, just would hate to lose more. June is turning out the way people on the news projected it to be it seems as a "losing" month. Will save my last IFT for a day when the stocks drop big this month then try to catch that rebound the next day before going 100-G again. This is why I worry about the L fund, just leaving that money in there and it goes down would be hard to swallow. Might try that after the rate changes in the fall and the market readjusts.

 

[Wiff007]

So still thinking of going 100% g but we should have that day of green I hope tomorrow or Friday. Thinking of riding out till then. This would be what day 4 of straight days in the red. we gotta break the losing streak eventually lol. I would hate to go 100-G and then it goes up tomorrow

 

[Wiff007]

Looks like some green is showing. Might stay now in lol.

 

[Wiff007]

Awesome day so far! Thinking of going all G or put 10-s and 10-I and saving that other IFT for another big loss day. If this month has shown any gains today seem to go bye-bye tomorrow

 

[Wiff007]

Went 100-G figure take the gains since this month stinks lol. thinking market will give some gains back tomorrow. Might save the last IFT for next week with yellen talking. Really am trying to be careful since I worry that big drop is coming anytime thanks to the media lol. Once that is done I might leave money in risky accounts or L fund. Liked being more risky with half of my funds but haven't liked the results lol this last few weeks.

I hear you Wiff. I've decided to play in a limited fashion through the end of the month. I knew I'd miss out on the big "UP" day because I'm not playing the timing game anymore. Good news is that I missed all the down action in June so I'm cool with that. Hopefully we can grab enough "bread crumbs" through the end of the month and still meet my 1% target. All the best in your investing.

Well stocks are up today which is great. Happy with my move yesterday but will take my small G fund gains..

 

[Wiff007]

Interesting afternoon in store with fed and yellen. Let's hope for nothing to scary being said lol

 

[nnuut]

I HATE FED Speak day, everything based on one or two words in their own special language. I wish they would speak ENGLISH!

 

[Wiff007]

Missed those gains a few weeks back, so have two IFT left for month. Thinking of jumping in today before noon since the market overall is down 144 points. Might do the c,s and i.

 

[Wiff007]

Well stayed 20-c 20-s and 20-I, with 40 in g fund. Figured next week we end July on a good note. After 4 days of being in the red I hope we get a rebound next week. I have one IFT left for next week and will move to G if we have another rough day. Hoping we get a good day Monday.

 

[Wiff007]

Well been a rough four days. Still staying 20-C, 20-S, 20-I. We have to break this streak of bad luck in the next few days I hope. Gonna try to hang in there till later in the week, although if tomorrow looks bad again. I might have to swallow my pride and get out. They say buy low but isn't it low enough lol. We need a sell high now lol.

Hi Whiff, Thursday (830am) we get advance estimate GDP growth numbers for 2nd quarter. Last quarter was negative (below 0 growth). I heard one analyst this weekend indicating expected growth is about 2.7% for Q2.

Seems high to me but what do I know. If that pans out, I should think markets would like that news...but don't know. Pretty much all of The longer-term charts (monthly and weekly) are in a down trend. So even if one chooses to jump in for a few days, I think its very risky right now. Ive not ruled it out but thinking more about entering Wednesday just before GDP numbers come out...but its risky.

I notice 18 of Top 20 on the Autotracker (non-premium service members) are in the G fund. So that says a lot. Not sure if any of them will jump back in but only two of them have IFTs left this month, so only two can jump back in.

Best wishes to you and to everyone!!!!!! :smile:

I just hope we're due for one day in the green. Can't see us having 7/8 days in the red. I'm gonna monitor, I got in last week under the buy low strategy last Tuesday when it went 180 points down, surprised we have been down this low. Maybe tomorrow will get a nice rebound.

 

[Scout333]

Oh well eventually greed will take hold! When? Good question. May be later this year. Summer is always iffy. JMHO:smile:

 

[Wiff007]

So far so good today. Let's break the streak and then hope Yellen gives us good news and we run a good streak to end July in a good note. Going to try to stay in the market for a bit longer.

 

[Wiff007]

Been a good day, let's make the next 50 min count and push the green higher. Hoping now through Friday we can go higher. Thinking of going 30/40% in C, S, I until Friday morning and then will go either 100-G or 10 in the c,s, and i.

If you move to G on Friday, you'll lose an extra move for Aug; I'm thinking like you, but bail on 3 Aug...

But if I move to G Friday I would be in the safe account starting next Monday 3 Aug. If I move Monday I will be using an IFT for August, instead of moving Friday and having the two IFT at my disposal. Correct me if I'm wrong though.
