Lots of folks been waiting for this for a while. But what does it really mean?
"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Likely will have a 5% run up to 21,000 after breaking historical resistance and a central milestone. Notwithstanding, I don't chase markets up. I buy in crashes. And with Trump running the showing, volatility is guaranteed, so I'll sit on the sidelines for the next four years waiting for this big dip.

How are you able to time the market?

If I could accurately time the market, I'd play options. You can't time the market with 100% certainty. Though, I have yet to see any U.S. market which has broken historical resistance levels that had not fallen back 20%+ below the resistance level at some point thereafter.
There will always be a crash: '87, '99, '08, and intermittent 20% corrections in between.

So should guys like me continue funding our S&P index funds?
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

I presume you are already cost-averaged in at much lower entry in your portfolio anyway. So ultimately how much would an extra 20% of your contribution cost you by entering a bit high at today's price?
I take two approaches: (1) Retirement, whereas I invest intermittently regardless of entry point; (2) Investment, whereas I wait for a good entry point (the dip) and exit at former broken resistance levels.
But my equity portfolio is the piker against my real-estate holdings.

There's no point in stopping now.
If you were wanting to establish a large position, waiting for a panic sell-off would be the time. Shots fired in the South China Sea would be the next crisis I'd look for.

Not only that, but as the "funny money" keeps getting printed, the stocks will keep on rising...

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

The market is thinking that Trump isn't going to be able to pass any trade-restrictive policies like tariffs or repealing nafta. For that to happen, the Republicans would have to like him, and a lot of them don't already. They are going to let him sign off on all the business-friendly Repub agenda, but they're not going to compromise to pass anything remotely populist that he promised.

I'm just glad I continued putting money into investments back during the crash. I am rising like crazy at the moment.
I do expect the correction soon though.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Fading the gap is a day trading strategy. I'm not sure it works on a multi-day timeframe. The reason it works intraday has to do with the nyse specialist's order volume. If there is bad news overnight, he is going to show up to work with a big basket of sell@mkt@open orders. If you give him a buy at mkt at open order on a day like that, you're his best friend, and he is going to reward that loyalty. Whatever price you pay at the open, it will go up from there, at least for a little while. And it's the opposite for gapping up, you sell short into the open.
The chart above is a breakout, and that is nothing you want to fade. But this exact moment is obviously not the best entry point. There will be a retracement, as taught by Leonardo of Pisa, filius Bonacci, aka The Great Fibonnaci. I had his picture taped on the side of my computer monitor when I was a day trader:

Look at that chart, from the high onward, the bounces it makes are all Fib retracements. 1/3, 1/2, and 2/3 are the key levels.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
