So buying insurance, eg. BBOZ, buying puts at say 5,800, 5,500, 5,000. But this costs money, but yes, is insurance, but can cost a lot with the size of my portfolio.Gunner,
Why would you be pretty fuxxked if market falls down to 5k or even less.
We are still in the high 6k.
My own 20c is that you should not put yourself in that position..so cash ,options, reverse indexes..you have the choice even now to make the "can not happen" liveable.
Do it for your own good.
You will learn what a bear market is,not really fuxxked ?So buying insurance, eg. BBOZ, buying puts at say 5,800, 5,500, 5,000. But this costs money, but yes, is insurance, but can cost a lot with the size of my portfolio.
I’ll be fine for a year or so if we’re at 7,000 by June 2023, but I also think that my 14%+ annual for 25 years is going to suffer.
When I say ‘fu$$ed’ what I mean is there May be no annual gains from the last high for ... 18 months maybe.

i can see plenty of logical reasons the 5000 range will be tested , but i have also seen some of the most outrageous and illogical policy moves , that i could imagineWhich is more likely to be hit first 5000 or 8000?

I think that is what 6500 is providing us about a 50/50 chance of recession.
fully agree with the idea just not sure if their trigger will be 5000 or above/belowI think the US Fed will stop interest rate rises and propose cuts before we reach 5000 in their market terms and the can will be kicked down the road a bit further.
I sold a spread at 5200/5000 about a week ago. I really don’t think it will be challenged. If We go below 6,000 I’ll sell loads of calls at 7400.fully agree with the idea just not sure if their trigger will be 5000 or above/below
If you think this 10 year channel has any merit and will be maintained, it seems good buying around these levels for long term investors. Unless the game has changed of course. Could always do a Covid plunge on another black swan too I guess.
Although it might be a while before the 50dma gets close enough to the bottom of the channel so that trade risk is reduced to a minuscule level.

The next leg down comethI was expecting another leg down
The XAO has made a pattern with a break above resistance which suggests we could be moving up to 7,200.

I topped up with a lot of stuff on 17 and 30 June, so just enjoying the break higher for the moment.
Goodness knows what has got into this (AU) market, also the US market. Facing 7+% inflation, with interest rates likely to be much higher than they are at the moment, its not a market where I really want to be.

It'll be tough to break 7,200 and stay above it. I gather the US and Europe have companies worth $9.4 trillion worth profit reporting today - whether that sees good news or bad news might be a deciding factor on short term direction.Approaching 7200 @Greynomad99, will be interesting to see how she reacts. Gone through 50dma @KevinBB

Another try to break above 7200 by the XAO today. I'm expecting after a run of good days the US will retreat tonight and we'll follow tomorrow - leaving 7,200 unbreached (for now). Still a lot of volatility in the market - PNV, IMU etcPretty much touched 7200 and retreated. I thought there'd be more support at this level on the way down but was smashed. I guess it's stairways up and elevator down, so expect a decent pause here.
