Big T's Takeaways
Last week I wrote that "investors and traders alike should be buying these dips."
Friday's massive rally was certainly a nice confirmation of this bullish bias. Even as stock sold off in the earlier part of the weak, the selling was orderly and buyers were there to pick up names on the cheap.
Technically speaking, the S&P 500 has to clear 1,375 to keep this bull party going, and I fully expect that to happen.
The key here is to take advantage of pull backs -- don't buy up at the highs of the trading ranges. There is still enough negative sentiment in the market that the bears will not allow an unchecked move higher for the indexes.
That means you are going to see a continued pattern of sell offs and rallies that result in higher bottoms and higher highs in the major stock indexes.
Smart traders will handicap the risks by trading with stops and watching their position size. Really smart traders will use pull backs to their maximum advantage.

OUR PRINCIPLES |
1. Our Customers
I think it was Frank Sinatra who once said, 'If you think customers are not important try doing business without them for a while.'
Although he was referring to another singer who didn't like to sign autographs, he could have been talking about any customer in any business.
In our offices here in Delray Beach we keep that quote posted on the wall just to remind us how fortunate to have you as part of our family.
2. No Hidden Agendas
Please forgive the populist tone here, but the sheer audacity of what some brokerages pawned off as "research" in the 90's was stunning. As a result, the New York State Attorney General forced many of them to fund separate independent stock research firms.
We here at the Institute for Individual Investors have no interest in the "conflict of interest" business (we've seen what it does to people.) We do what we do because we enjoy it and we're good at it. Therefore know that we will never accept any payment, in any form, to recommend the shares of any company. Period.
Our goal is to not only provide you with our unbiased opinions, but to also bring you behind the scenes and show you exactly how we form those opinions. Knowledge is your best defense in the investing battlefield.
3. Information You Can Understand
In addition to the research and educational courses we offer, we try to present our facts in a way that will help you understand the rationale behind our thinking.
It is our hope that during the course of our relationship you will gain a more sophisticated framework for making investment decisions both as an investor and as a businessperson. We believe that the more educated you become, the more likely it is that you will appreciate and recommend our work.
4. We Will Always Admit Our Mistakes
Only fools never admit and learn from their mistakes. Good investors are not born they're forged. It's that simple.
5. Real Wall Street Experience
Everybody we hire to teach and inform you will actually have real investment experience.
Need I say more? Well, I will. Why?
Because many of our "competitors" aren't real investors - they're marketers and journalists pretending to have the real world experience that separates the men from the boys.
