So I guess you didn't see my IFT to S.
Been in since Aug 1, captured 6.93% so far (unrealized of course).
No, with this new website of our’s, seeing other’s posturing is not really intuitive…

Plus I lost the rankings (1.2.3) on the Leaderboard…

wingchaser, you have a nice 10 year return. 2020 did you right :). Looking good this year too. Are you using similar Williams %R and MACD for entry points like the day trading?
I am just an average Joe. I have no clue to what the market will do.

Scar:

Williams%R is more of a leadin’ indicator, whereas MACD is an absolute laggard. Usually, couple W%R with a Long Lower Candlestick in an attempt to approximate bottoms…

Taken me awhile, but I think I moved into the Top 10 (Balance Leader’s)…

Careful with the 2020 reference, as that was merely a Buy & Hold proposition with an entry point right @ March 15 (if I can remember)…

Trading range for the S&P beginning to narrow, though not quite indicative of CONSOLIDATION…

Higher HIGH, Higher LOW remain @ play…

It's possible we go to the 200MA; with a few red days on the way up.
The stock market is designed to make average traders/investors look like idiots. It uses the economy and reports as theater, to make us believe that is why it goes up or down. Very few saw this rally coming, so that is why it's rising. However, I'm tempted to move 50/50 today....
We did, indeed, get to the 200MA & bounced off it hard, as it obviously served as RESISTANCE…

As soon as I observed continued Momentum (albeit in the wrong direction), I had to take my money off the table…

Wing, it sure was a tough pullback this morning and I was tempted to pull out. In the end I stayed in because I was not convinced that the pullback prior to noon was so unredeemable. Then there was a glimmer of hope when the subsequent rebound broke up above yesterday's (Aug 15) high at 2:40pm and then never collapsed in the after market into lower lows. So I am still holding out hope this rally is not over yet.... :roll:

You may be right, JATELLE, Premarket supports that rationale @ the moment…

I just have so much (Real Money) @ stake, there are times where the gamble isn’t worth the risk…

How I long for the day when we had unlimited IFT(s)!!!

Well taking profits is ALWAYS a smart move! So have you heard if there is any serious discussion to raise the monthly IFT limit. Even one more would be game changing...

Harpole, I'm sure hoping the same. All the "experts" are calling this a classic bear market rally and warning of a lower bottom. Perhaps... but I am staying the course at least for now because I am not convinced that the high on Aug 16 was at any significant resistance level and it never gave it a serious second challenge on the 17th. Take a look this setup looks very similar to the third week of July when it dropped for a few days and then bounced off the 21 MA on July 27 and exploded for new highs. I am hoping for a repeat. Maybe I am just wishful thinking...
