Will watch.. probably open low rebound. Then 1030 down again then bounce around..

May dca in around 1030.. watch and see if sell off in last 20 minutes ..I dca very very small amounts but do it for weeks etc..

No idea where headed cause driven by wh comments,clarity.. I think when people get a feel that wh is changing something to try to stop it… it will pop back very fast.. to fast for me to react on the way up.. so will dribble on way down.. but to be completely honest I have no clue where headed.. I was switching from laddered corp bonds that were expiring to some dividend etfs anyway..

Based on experience my best stock tip to others is do the opposite of what I do.

Fair enough - so when does it stop? When are we getting back in?

Well, the good news is that I can only lose 10k per day on paper for so long

Its just math baby , I was really pleased a month ago. Now, here we are, the only saving grace for me is that I was lazy about putting money in the market for a long time and have a little nest egg sitting in a money market. I will hold onto it for a while, I simply cant put it in the market even at these prices. When there are so many wild cards in a deck, you just dont know what you are looking at.

Possibly hopefully.

NVdA got down around $87 then immediately popped 6%. VIX got up to 54. That’s usually a nice buying opportunity.

If you weren’t buying that’s your own fault.

I Just set a few limit buys at laddered targets going down and leave on to see if you catch the fluctuations.. my buys are all small and dribbles but it lets me feel like I at least was trying to take advantage of the opportunity.

I will reevaluate each day and adjust as need. If I get something great.. if not it means my existing positions are all going up again which is also great.

I am ok with were my allocations are and retired so just moving stuff around from some recently matured bonds to dividends etf ..

Hope yall find some bargains . The market is reacting to wh news and rumors and no one can predict the comments that get tweeted from there.

Are you going to show that same curve 20 years later?

I’ve bought in on some of the initial dips. Will set limits on another tranche or two to buy in again.
