Good Evening, The market traded even most of the day but moved higher during the afternoon session. Our move into the C Fund has been a good one so far. Price reclaimed it’s 200 EMA today. If it manages to stay there it could eventually move the chart into an uptrend. That is what we are looking for. Should it continue  to move up, we will incrementally put our remaining capital back to work.

The days action left us with the following results: Our TSP allotment gained 0.125%. For comparison, the Dow added +0.20%, the Nasdaq +0.29%, and the S&P 500 +0.41%.

Our next move will be when the 5 EMA passes up through the 200 EMA or the 20 EMA passed through the 50 EMA whichever comes first. That’s all for tonight. Have a nice evening and may God continue to bless your trades.

 God bless, Scott 8-)

    Good Morning, Another day another challenge. This market is anything other than boring and I say that not necessarily in a good way! When it comes to the market I think boring is good.

    Good Morning, Our charts told us we were at the bottom and the fundamentals agreed.

The market dipped and many chicken little…

    Good Morning, Inevitably, we will have a down day and today is it. Believe it or not the S&P 500 has gone up the past nine sessions and it’s been a long time since it’s done that. So a down day today is not so bad. The recent run has pretty much put things back…
