    Android app for TSP.gov account queries

    Re: Android app for TSP account queries I'm guessing this App is what triggered this warning?

    Play for the bounce... if only we had unlimited trades again

    We knew a sell off was coming today. Traders don't want to be holding over this long weekend. Too much risk of stuff happening somewhere in the world. Add to that the fact that politicians like to announce bad news on Friday afternoon before a long holiday weekend. They hope it gets buried in...

    Intrepid_Timer's PUBLIC Account Talk

    Wow. I'm working too hard. I never realized that you had your own Premium Service on TSPTALK! no less. I guess I don't read this message board nearly enough. Damn, that is too funny. Boy how things change. When did you actually start? I have to give you props, it was talking about your original...

    Yep. No sense crying over spilt milk though.

    Play for the bounce... if only we had unlimited trades again

    I quit posting my moves for several reasons: 1. I travel and do not always have the luxury of being able to post my moves to the tracker. I missed posting a bunch of moves to the tracker which causes problems trying to get the tracker lined back up with my actual position. I keep my own...

    Play for the bounce... if only we had unlimited trades again

    I'll probably decide on Wednesday morning. I have to admit that I'm leaning toward the sidelines. There are too many things that could rattle the markets right now and cause a selloff - Euro troubles, congressmen spouting battle plans, Syria, oil, another hurricane, etc... Like the saying...

    Play for the bounce... if only we had unlimited trades again

    I hate how this two trade thing has to play inot my thinking. I jumped in and we have had a nice bounce. I am looking for an exit. I would like to ride to Thursday or Friday but if I bail to G by Wednesday (31st of August) I don't waste a September trade. What a horrible way to have to work this...

    Play for the bounce... if only we had unlimited trades again

    Looking at the markets being down ~4.5%, my first thought is to buy today and sell tomorrow - thus plaaying for the bounce. This straegy usually works well, especially on big move days like today. You don't want to move in and stay because the bounce could be a dead cat bounce and markets fall...

    Childs EE bonds. Looking for alternative.

    http://www.clarkhoward.com/news/clark-howard/education/clarks-529-guide/nFZS/ I suggest putting the money into a 529 plan. See Clark Howard's advise at the link above.

    Sold 1/2 my gold today

    If you sold half, then you are half right. :) Whether gold goes up or down, you will be half right.

    Congressional Medal of Honor

    Buster, are you trying to degrade service in the National Guard? That's what it reads like to me. What about other "weekend warriors"? You trying to degrade their service as well? I was in the Navy Reserves when I got called up for what ended up being Operation Desert Storm. Many folks in the...

    Gold, Silver, etc...

    Exactly. That is why I sold. Heck, I may even did my big class ring out of the safe and sell it too. People are jumping on a band wagon but the wagon is at the top of a hill and about to go down. Still money to be made in gold....as a short.

    Gold, Silver, etc...

    Sold Gold. Holding silver. I'll prolly buy some back after a pullback. Prolly time to start thinking about other precious metals.

    Crash of 2011 happening now?

    One mistake I made in 2008, was to get back in too early. I think I'll watch for a little while longer before getting back in stocks. Downside risk seems a little high right now.

    Fed Unions ask- what's the plan?

    I don't thinkanything happens till the new super committee does its thing. I'll be watching who goes on that committee very carefully. Federal employees will see some impact,time will tell in what form it takes.
