I've always said that staying in the game long enough for your edge to matter, is your edge. It's my system's slogan.
Nothing wrong with sitting on the sidelines and holding a cash position when the market regime tells us or, our edge is not in our favor based on the results of the current portfolio.
I just told my folks in the Discord Group, Smart Canvas, that follow my strategy, "Knowing when to put yourself on the bench may be just as important as knowing when to step back onto the field."
I keep that in mind with any sizable cash position.
Great trend indicators and a great reminder of how funds rotate their clients money.
I think the end of June, being another close of the 2nd quarter, has led to the most recent volatility. Fund managers are selling to lock down profits. When they build their Annual Prospectus to give to potential clients in 2027 and share with existing clients, I would suspect they want the quarters to reflect positive returns. They know all the Fund Mangers in the US and abroad are selling this time of year.
One thing I've learned is that cash is a position too. Sometimes the best decision is to wait instead of feeling like I have to make a trade.
I like how you broke this down. The boat and ocean analogy made a lot of sense to me. Thanks for sharing it!

Thank you!
I love that slogan and completely agree. It’s about sticking around, the gains are going to happen if you can survive!
Thanks Dino!
