Money is Made in the Wating Game
April 12, 2008
Stocks are clearly not ready to break to the upside, nor downside. Friday’s painful % decline was not all that bad. GE’s dismal display of earnings had many on the street shaken. Although a GIANT, GE is not a leader in this market and we should be caring about leadership not who is the biggest. GE’s volume accounted for more than 1/4 of the NYSE volume, without NYSE volume would have been pathetic let alone down.
Thursday’s action was definitely a positive sign for the permabull/goldilocks crowd, volume surged while we had price gains. However, Friday’s action is showing that this market isn’t quite ready to break up/down. Jesse Livermore always stated that more money was made by waiting rather than doing. CASH continues to be KING, throwing a large amount of dollars at this market will only get your account to shrink.
We can certainly be taking small positions, we have been here at Big Wave Trading. However, we are keeping a lot of cash on hand so we can be ready for the next big bull run.
