werefrog: **OT** My last post on this subject...

"others that caught the April 4 low using TA"
Your post at Message 15618254
was posted April 5, which is about as good as you could do using EOD data.


You should read the post again a little more carefully. It was a post made on April 5th on SI of two "realtime posts" I made on the Crystal Ball Forum. One on April 3rd and the other on April 4th.

Realtime data, what's that? <g>

Take a look at most of the charts I have posted on this thread, before I delete the files. You may be surprised, many of them were captured in "realtime"...<g>

Regards,
LG

PS: Good luck in your "realtime" chat rooms, they seem to be more suited to your style of trading...

Gee, I see everyone taking credit for April fourth, so I'll chime in:
#reply-15610295 were I not only call for a bottom, but for a rally within three weeks to 2160, #reply-15614687, where with not too much confidence yet, announce that I am fully loaded at the end of the day, and I did not even collect yet on that one #reply-15614526 (g). That call coincided that day with the Naz actually breaking my then forecasted bottom of 1636, but I ended that day "fully loaded" or less than 5% cash left, a big swing from more than 70%. In Fairness, I had my turnips indicating that rally to start earlier (March 22), and had to take "refuge" for a little longer.

All this chest beating reminds me of the old Jewish adage, "If you don't blow your own trumpet, no one will blow it for you" (g).

The question is not what we "called in the past", but what now?. I am on record with 1850 on the Naz before July fourth, then a short term rally (getting us no higher than about 2100, but probably stalling at 2057.), and then a sharp hit into August getting us back to 1620 plus minus 30.
