Intitiating large positions here would be foolish. But cash is king for new investors. We are already short this market.

You can click here and in the URL change the year date to see other years) You can see the huge gains I have made in past up and down market cycles. Those buy signals are the same buy signals we are receiving today. I don't know what else to tell you either than a QE manipulated market is ruining them. We are getting false signals in troves that we have NEVER seen before in individual stocks. The shock is the massive amount of them. I am taking my SELL signal. I know what happens when you decide to go to cash. You miss the next big move. I can't make you stay. Nobody can keep you in the stock market. I can only tell you I have made a ton of money in the stock market during trending periods. This isn't a trending period. I AM GOING TO LOSE MONEY. ALL OF YOU ARE. Have you seen the State of Trend Following and the returns of the masters? Do you think they are doing any better than me? <a href="http://www.automated-trading-system.com/state-of-trend-following-in-april/" rel="nofollow">No</a>. Most are doing worse or were before today at least. Now I am in the lower half. AAPL PCLN CMG is breaking down, the market is rolling over, I am taking my SELL signal. If it doesn't work I will cut my losses and take the next one. You want to leave now, go for it. I'll be here till I am 120. Taking every signal I get along the way. One signal last year made up for the whole year. July to August. Trust me I am way more pissed off than you. Do you think I enjoy life or anything right now? Do you think I have enjoyed anything the past 1 1/2 years? How do you think this effecting my lifestyle? If I could make the market act like it should I would. All I can do is keep doing what I have been doing as that is what ALL THE MASTER ARE DOING NOW until it works again. I don't know what else to say. I know it isn't me either but walking away is something I could never fathom. I would rather go out as Jesse Livermore (ie broke or suicide) than walk away. I am that fucking serious about this.

A little extended to be risking that play in this market. Hell, even shit right off the 50 dma is risky. SYNC bad trade up here. No doubt. buyable gap ups on earnings only. non-earnings gap ups are not in play ever. Why would you buy SYNC up here in the stratosphere. A little extended to be risking that play in this market.

And after today we are going to be doing a lot of selling. also selling off any longs in the pre market that gap down due to earnings. everything is on watch. buying earnings gap ups is still the only "safe" play. Going to have RRTS and STMP happen along the way but winners are beating the losers. Hell no.
