WWF, AKA, Wrong Way Feldman Here,
I tripped walking thru the door !!
I am sitting on a "20% down" position in JNUG, from doing my Wrong Way Peach Fuss Thing - So, I haven't felt much like talking about Mr Market. My Fancy charts, I can't say that without SMILING, (Thank You, Sir) were showing a significant down leg had taken place as of June 29, and you posted that evening that 29th and July 5th looked significant, I saw your post late, would normally have put me on alert to pay extra attention !!!
But, as Wrong Way had to leave early on the 30th, and couldn't watch the market, BUT, let "Greed enter into the thinking",
Put in an order at $36.7, thinking JNUG had to be turning up at a point of interest -- Wrong, Wrong, Had I not left and monitored the market, I would not have made such a stupid blunder. But, Alas, I Did put that order in, and it filled right after early trading started, just before starting another significant down leg. So, I haven't wanted to talk market much, On top of that, we had bad storms, tornado damage near me, I didn't sustain any damage, Thanking God.
And we had family in from several states away., which we enjoyed immensely, but wore us out.
None of this is really significant,
Unless you are Wrong Way trying to trade a $5K Roth IRA, strapped with a 2 day turnaround of funds on closing, LMBO here, at Me. I finally got a system that can and does work , If, and Only If I follow it!!!! And I had another 5 years to live, have my wits, and do it. I may actually have that, But, at 74 and having had covid twice, Maybe I don't have that.
Most of my classmates are gone and dropping like flies from cancer and covid ,,
As you and I have mentioned, NONE of us know if we will wake up tomorrow, or have any brain power if we do wake up. You Said, "That Should Be a Sign On The Wall",
And It Truly Should !!!
You said, "When I'm trading I like true volatility like we had the first few months, ya I know most don't as they can't see the turns when it gets that wild.",
I can see them turns too, I can NOT make use of the info,
I feel like Moses, looking at the promised land, and can't enter it.
The truth Is: I live modestly, have a great wife, great children, decent health for Ole Farts, and own a house, older cars, have plenty to eat,
And that is far superior to 9 of 10 people on earth today, or that have ever lived !!!
Why O Why, do I keep trying to Kick Ole Wrong Way's Behind ???
Entertainment sometimes, Boredom sometimes, And I have been successful at almost any other thing that I tried..
NOW, Honest to Goodness,, A 5 to 10% trade has been out there every day for the last week -- BOIL, KOLD, GUSH, DRIP, ERX, ERY, TQQQ, SQQQ, FAS, FAZ, JDST, JNUG, LABD, LABU, UCO, SCO, DRV, NAIL -- MIN OF 5% per Day was possible for someone who could see the very fast turns, Well, a VERY VERY fast car on a VERY curvy race track is useless with a driver who isn't intuitive and in VERY good physical and mental shape..
Man, am I full of CHIT, or What ????
Mr Market has turned on a dime, within "20 seconds to 5 minutes" of me finally throwing in the towel ,and hitting The "SELL" Button.
I may crawl in my hole for another week too,
I'm tuckered out and still gotta mow a dang big ditch, too deep n steep for the rider,
forces me to get exercise that I don't want, BUT, absolutely NEED!!!
Such is life, some of the best things for us, are the thing we want the LEAST !!!
Hope All of Your Cups Are Half Full,
Not, Half Empty!!!!
