Looking for a Stock Market Bounce Today

I'm doing a small amount of trading in our retirement accounts.  Hoping for but not expecting a bounce in the fallen stocks the past few days.  If there is a big bounce, I may sell some positions for a small profit.  If the recently purchased stocks keep falling, I am reluctant to increase my holdings in the stock.   I want to avoid trying to catch a falling knife.

However, I do plan to scale in some funds to our kids' college accounts in a S&P500 index.  Even if the market dips further, we'll be keeping these accounts for several years.  In addition, if the market falls further, I will be able to add more funds at that time.
