makemoney18, I'm contemplating about getting back in the market today. I have many reasons, first being that Dow Jones Industrial Avg. (DJIA) hit an historical high. Others being that the (DJIA) and the S&P 500 are signaling and confirming bullish candlesticks. To strengthen the argument, the Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI) is signaling and confirming bullish candlesticks if I see the chart correctly.

However, I never use candlesticks on indexes. Sure, with stocks if it signals and confirms a bullish candlestick that's fine and dandy; but with indexes you have to really step back and look at the bigger picture. The NASDAQ seems to still be bearish with candlesticks. The rally yesterday was because of the Fed taper, emotional. Gains should be erased the next day, today.

I'm on the fence and I am simply sharing because this is the first time that I have seriously considered getting back into the market since I have been out on April 11, 2014. If I do I will wait until after 10:30 AM for a few reasons. Well, I don't buy or sell in the first half hour, once again; I wait for market emotion. There is some important reports to come out today at 10 AM. I sound like a broken record, but once again I will wait for the market emotion.

I'm on the fence, better yet. There might as well be razor wire and an electrical current, as there is more important reports to come out tomorrow. I see a lot of volatility, for better or worse.

makemoney18, good to hear! I'm just sitting calmly. Overall markets today are taking quite a hit. Since I'm a sitting duck I might as well begin learning something new. I have a co-worker who loaned me a book on options along with a CD which was very nice of her. It seems straightforward. The book can't be more than 50 pages or so. I also wanted to learn about how to short, but being that I have this book and CD I feel compelled that I should learn about options first.

Do you trade options? I know nothing about them at the moment. I Googled it a few months ago and became quickly confused. I read a page or two of this book and the author really seems to break things down into laymen's term. She told me that she'd make $100-$300 in a day. I do know it's risky business.

Not to bad still holding some gains. How about you bud?

Young investors are hoarding cash

Link: http://money.cnn.com/2014/04/01/investing/hoarding-cash.moneymag/

makemoney18, how are you doing with trading in this market?

makemoney18, the S&P 500 did very well today. I won't speak too soon; but if the S&P 500 does well again tomorrow, then I might need to move the target date a little closer. We will see!

makemoney18, it's good to see that we both agree on roughly the same time frame. I began investing in this bull market, so I feel that is why I'm defensive. Understanding and looking back on the past bear markets is different than being present during a bear market. I can understand and focus on the past, however experience is no match. I know what to look for, but I don't know what to expect from the outcome. I'm sure you understand where I am coming from.

I totally understand what you mean, very safe play on you're part. I would say if no crazy events happen that could effect the market 3/4 weeks at most imo pps target to be reached

makemoney18, I have an entry on the S&P 500 at 1,892.00 based off candlesticks alone. Candlesticks don't give time frames unfortunately. The candlesticks on April 4, 2014 signaled a Bullish Stop Loss. Now a Bullish Stop Loss is not a candlestick. This is when the the chart signals and confirms a bearish candlestick, but the candlesticks continue to a positive direction. Let me say this again. This is when the chart signals and confirms a bearish candlestick, but the candlesticks continue up in a positive direction. It's important to understand this. The PPS or in this case the S&P 500 continued to increase despite bearish signals.

This is what we call a "Bull Trap." Hence "Trap" or trapping of the bulls. Usually when bearish candlesticks signal and confirm a sell, we wait for a new bullish candlestick to signal and confirm. However, with a Bullish Stop Loss we must ignore all bullish candlesticks until it reaches the last PPS or in the S&P 500's case 1,892.00 until we can wait for a bullish candlestick to signal and confirm.

You're right, the market is very unpredictable. If I had to speculate on when it will hit 1,892.00, I would say around May 5, 2014. This is not based on any charting or technicals. This is only based on the positive momentum that I see in the charts. I don't know enough about these items to be able to better predict or guess when this target will be reached. However, I believe this target can be reached if the momentum continues positive. The S&P 500 is still in a channel up pattern, which is great to see. Though with the market being unpredictable we are certainly always vulnerable to a sideways movement or a downward movement. When this happens we will see a new chart pattern.

Right now I'm very optimistic on the overall market. I was stopped out of positions that I held. Capital preservation is very important to me, so I am defensive. I won't gamble until this target is reached. I see there are definitely some who are profiting in the overall market on this dip, however I am not taking that gamble.

When is your time frame on this target being reached?

Definitely a good choice, I'm trading a few penny picks making some money. I know the market is unpredictable but what's your time frame for SP 500 target price?

makemoney18, still on the sidelines. Waiting for the S&P 500 to break 1,892.00. If/when it does then I'll get back in.

Life is good bud.....making that money trading too 2014 has been good so far

makemoney18, thank you for the "Happy St. Patricks Day" and in return "Happy First day of Spring!"

I have been great, thank you for asking. Life is the same old, same old. I been busy working and going to school. Investing is doing well also.

With the extra time in my busy schedule I have been testing new investment/trading strategies that involve long-term investing, swing trading and day trading. I began using value investing since I have began investing, but now I have a better grasp on investing/trading now feeling I'm ready to branch out and find more aggressive strategies. I still enjoy value investing, but if these new strategies preform better than value investing then I use a different strategy.

As you know I am "all in" on Bank of America (BAC). I didn't make a post here on this board, but I reentered in a new position at $16.50 on 1/27/14. I have a price target of $21.45 or 30% gain and a stop on $15.84 or 4% loss. I also have had someone who is a customer of the business I work at who would like to give me $10,000 in starting capital to invest for him. I don't know specifics as of now, but I'm consulting with my attorney to see if there is a legal way to do so without licenses. He has a financial advisor, but would like to give me an opportunity. How about you, how is life and investing/trading?

How you been? Happy St. Patricks day!

makemoney18, if I were trading earnings I would buy Lear Corp. (LEA). I just bought some on my paper account, we will see! I think they will surprise!

makemoney18, I don't know how Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN) or Apple, Inc. (AAPL) earnings will be. Though I'm willing to bet that Google Inc. (GOOG) will slide steeply after hours. I'm not playing any of these earnings.

No I agree with you. Wait on Buying GOOGLE

makemoney18, I hope I'm wrong, but I believe that Google Inc. (GOOG)'s earnings will disappoint.

Hello Gulley,

Happy to hear your do well, below are some links to possibly get you up to speed. Honestly in a nut cell the biggest thing holding FNMA And FMCC from fair pps value is being in conservativeship.

I hope this information below helps also visit the board on iHUB and check out the new links and such. Keep up the great work in class.

Fri, 24 Jan 2014 19:11:35 GMT ~ U.S. Senators urge Fannie, Freddie to aid lower-income households
[Reuters] - More than 30 Democrats in the U.S. Senate called on Friday for the regulator of government-controlled Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to direct the companies to resume contributions for affordable housing initiatives. The senators focused on two unused funds that Congress established in 2008 to finance low-income housing with a portion of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac's revenue. The Federal Housing Finance Agency, the companies' regulator, suspended payments into the funds in November of that year, after the government seized the companies as mortgage losses mounted. The 33 lawmakers, led by Democrats Jack Reed of Rhode Island and Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and independent Bernie Sanders of Vermont, want the agency to resume contributing to the fund to help ameliorate a shortage of affordable housing for low-income Americans.

makemoney18, I hope you are doing well. I have been very busy with college semester beginning. Earlier today I sold Bank of America (BAC) which had met my price target which I posted today on this board. I have already begun executing due diligence for another long term position. I am a value investor and have been looking at Fannie Mae (FNMA) and Freddie Mac (FMCC). These companies are extremely undervalued 233% and 1,655% respectively.

It's very important for me to understand an investment before making the investment. Do you have any links that would be able to get me up to speed on these companies current conditions? I understand there are a lot of factors that are holding these companies PPS down. Or would you be willing to get me up to speed yourself?

Thank you, Gulley
