That fifty day bottom on the NDX is due here ..

looking at the chart that the dude did, it looks like it could be +- ~2 days. Center for that +- is Monday.

Found my ballz and put in an order that should have me 33% in NDXish fund at the close Monday. Then another 33% Tuesday and 34% Wednesday.

Large income tax returns could have the US consumer on a drunken buying binge for the next several weeks.

(I gotta find some of those flowers to share with the Mrs. before I tell her..)

BTW .. last year loss in the 401 was ~11.5% not the 30% I had posted before.

Well ..

This should help my entry point:

FWIW the lower tine in that big fork on the SPX is set for ~1121 on Monday. Falling at a rate of ~ 3 points per day.

Re: On golden Garden

I had to put them someplace. The critters will just feast on whatever you try to grow anyway (at least those that dodge your bullets). The bottom line here is that you have too many trees that produce way too many leaves.

As to RTR, the key is that we had never faced a bear and just didn't know how to act. Once we figured it out (and we are a bit slow) the ROI improved dramatically. I really do look forward to getting back to the bull, but the bear can be fun too. I really think that getting away from individual stocks in favor of the Cubes has also helped. There is simply less emotion attached to some non-discript basket; much less pride of authorship, so to speak.

Now, if we could just get your 401K up to these levels, we could really have fun.
