Looking at jumping in when we bottom out, positions are buy and hold. So far I have:
DIS
AAPL
SPY
VOO
Any others I should look into ?
I think you can get $115 on DIS for action

I doubt the market will run up, but the bill technically hasn't passed because there aren't enough Representatives in the House.gougler08 said:The 8% increase yesterday was the stimulus bill (and as someone else noted, most other times there's another drop to come after it's announced)AggieKeith15 said:
Seriously what is with this market?! Down already after agreeing on a big stimulus bill. I don't get it.
This is why we can't have nice things!

I tried to understand this...and I did. Came out with 279 when I did it myself.

2792 is Model T on SPX.
278 on SPY
I'd be making plans anywhere around 2700 to take all actions.
p.s. In order for M<odel T to be activiated you have to break $250 on SPY and 2550 SPX

SPY and VOO are almost the same thing from different brokers. Pick the cheaper one and add VB (small cap index) to your list. That is, depending on your view of the small company recovery.hedge_zer0 said:

50% retracement from when the big move started. So, I looked at the daily chart of the SPY. Used 339 at starting point of the move (the highs) and 218 (bottom wick on 3/23) as the "top" (or bottom in this case) of the move. 339 + 218 = 557 / 2 = 278.5.Armyof1975 said:How do you calculate Model T?La Bamba said:I tried to understand this...and I did.

Is it a 25% jump from the low point or is it more complicated than that? (looks like 2792 is a 26.45% jump from the low point for SPX, so I might have the number wrong?)

Reading this thread got me thinking need to continue to hedge.
To you, is Model T more accurate than the Fibonacci retracements, which I think is 2650 for the first one?oldarmy1 said:I think we will have more upside short term but look out after it finds its top.gougler08 said:The 8% increase yesterday was the stimulus bill (and as someone else noted, most other times there's another drop to come after it's announced)AggieKeith15 said:

FYI day after >8% move. 4/5 gapped down. 5/5 closed down from open. Intraday should swing up then melt tomorrow.
One day was 10/29/08 where fed dropped bearish sentiment that spiked the close from +5% to -1% in minutes, so it's not entirely out of the question to have an up day, but unlikely

Is it just me or does anyone else get confused on what a bear or bull trap is?khaos288 said:jj9000 said:????claym711 said:

I think that's a joke about the timeline where when people say that it's the bull trap rally mid recession

Looking like some of my covered calls will get called out on Friday...will just sit on the cash for the next wave down most likely
Love this. Is the general sentiment here that we're likely somewhere in between "return to normal" and "fear"hedge_zer0 said:
