Fuck You Bears, You’re Dead

Ultimately, the market is just a compilation of temporary feelings/ideas. I may have a bullish stance now; but that can change with any new data that paints a decidedly bad future. As an investor, it is important to have convictions. But, it is more important to avoid getting killed by them.

Do not let your stubbornness wipe out your bullshit accounts. Keep in mind, no matter how cool you may think you are or how nifty your trading system is: you are subject to error. You will be wrong. Do not let a few little mistakes put you on the street, in a very bad homeless situation.

With that being said, “The Fly” intends to spend his day pushing idiots filled with hubris into murder holes, as the market melts their fucking faces off with florescent pink blow torches. I have no feelings for these people, one way or another. I just toss them aside, into pits filled with snapping alligators, whenever they get within 5 feet of my shadow.

With my money, believe it or not, I may take some profits today. My gains will be north of 60%, after this mornings push higher. And, I feel like getting small.

Still, I will keep the majority of my positions. Moreover, I may even buy some new shit, via The PPT. Nonetheless, sometimes it’s important to claim victory, book profits, then reevaluate where money can be best allocated.

In my opinion, without a doubt, the long side is where you need to be right now.

UPDATE: I took profits on The Mosaic Company [[MOS]] , selling 3/4ths of my positions, north of $36.5

UPDATE II: I sold all of my [[EEM]] position, north of $24.5, all of my [[ROM]] position, north of $28.5 and all of my [[DIG]] position, north of $33.5

UPDATE III: I sold 25% of my [[UYG]] position, north of $9.25.

NOTE: I wanted to rebuild my cash levels to a robust level and I have accomplished just that. I am done selling for the day. Year to date, I am up more  than 63%. I will spend the cash on a dip.

    3 Point Trendlines

    Today I showed a 10 minute chart of the S&P in my report (3 pt trendline).

    Click to enlarge

    The convergence of 3 trendlines at 971 combined with what I offered on the Buzz yesterday shows:

    1) An overthrow of the 20dma

    2) A .618 retrace of from the October 14th pivot high to the 840 low

    3) A 3rd potential Cha in the FOMC Cha Cha Cha pattern

    That is why I indicated that if 970 were rejected I expected a move all the way back down to or below the low of the session.

    There seems to be a universal agreement now that this rally has legs and that it will be better than the first rally off the October 10th low. That seems undeniable although the course and direction of such a rally phase is likely to be anything than a straight line. If you are looking for certain here, you are looking in the wrong place.

    Be that as it may, the larger question is what will play out once a larger rally than heretofore unfolds.

    “In my opinion, without a doubt, the long side is where you need to be right now.”

    “I sold all of my (EEM: 24.62 +8.94%) position, north of $24.5, all of my (ROM: 28.10 +6.68%) position, north of $28.5 and all of my (DIG: 34.25 +8.97%) position, north of $33.5”

    And you sell all of your long positions despite being convinced that being long is the way to go. LOL

    KC — you mean CB Richard Ellis? The commercial real estate folks?

    CBG is their symbol, and they are up pretty nicely today.

    What brought that to your attention?

    Russell standing RIGHT on the breakout of it’s downtrend channel here. A break of 505.60 or so (say anything over 506) is “home free” territory.

    Of course, this is also an extremely vulnerable point.

    CAP:

    I said I wanted to get smaller. It is a matter of risk management. I am not shorting, just rebuilding some cash levels.

    I still own truckloads of UYG, M, NOV and a variety of names.

    It never hurts taking a profit.

    Steph–

    It’s comments like that that keep forcing me to call you Steve. Many apologies.

    As a peace offering, you’ll probably appreciate this online “love letter.”

    Also, I am wondering if you are perhaps also a big fan of “Law & Order, Special Victims Unit?”

    I was intrigued to find that SVU woman was Jayne Mansfield’s daughter.

    It does hurt taking a profit at the wrong time, fly. Profits pay for losses too, amongst other things. But you never take losses so the point is redundant.

    ‘inveterate’ Wow, thats a fancy word. Looks like the scum bucket household is finally rich enough to afford a dictionary.

    Watch for stocks to decouple from this previously gay market. In other words good stocks
    will trade higher poor stocks will still be doomed. No more all up or all down it’s back to picking stocks.
