Pio is the money churner in this thread. I don't touch my long term investments.

Hey, I got shamed into opening my CIT account for my emergency cash stash. First new bank account in 20 years. As to riding the stock market while it lasts...can you give me that exit date so I don't have to hedge with bonds, cash, etc? ;)
Yeah I get that. I thought the same thing about 2 years ago when I was getting paranoid about my gains and almost pulled my money out. Two of my biggest holdings are up over 100% since then.

I will consider trailing stop orders as a (possible) means of hedging against a big crash. I am not quite ready to go there yet.

Lulz @ pB. I'm the biggest buy index and hold proponent in the thread. I probably have S&P tranches from before you could drive.

Just to be petty, I hope Tesla does a 2-for-1 stock split when they hit $840.

Getting double smacked by my EM decision. Buy back in at +10% where I sold, now down quite a bit. Gambling is hard.

We've just been keeping all of our robo-buys going and stock piling cash with our taxable money. That's pretty much the plan until November.

Yeesh. My equity indexes are now about -.2% YTD. Cash and bonds both in the black. :)
