Double top just happened, technicals are telling me to stay away... Didn't end up buying this week. Expecting things to turn sour | Buy in when you feel comfortable with the price or DCA.

Double top just happened, technicals are telling me to stay away... Didn't end up buying this week. Expecting things to turn sour | the way i look at it is that if you were already buying regularly before the dip, then this is an even better time to continue doing so. if you are on the outside looking in and have not been active in buying over the last few years, then i'd recommend not jumping in with both feet. also whether you're in or out, i would not recommend over-leveraging to get in right now, just buy as usual, or maybe just slightly more than usual. it's a good time to make sensible buying decisions.

Anyone buying US stocks in your TSFA? How does that work? You deposit CDN into your TSFA and then convert that into USD? I assume you would have to open a US TSFA stock account to transfer that money into.

I deposit CAD and when I buy a USD ticket stock, it will automatically convert CAD to USD for me. Since the amounts I transfer aren't big enough, I don't bother with Norbert's Gambit.
I would check with your Broker to see how they handle it.

My funds didn't go through and I was having problems setting it up. After back and forth emailing their unsupportive customer support. I gave up LOL.
I tried using Robinhood too... but it's only for Americans...
What platform is user-friendly for newcomers?
