Re: <1%IFT Option
Emo,
You hit it on the head with the 6% if you have assets in the other funds. It is actually potentially more if you use ALL five of the L Funds. If you leave some assets in C/S/I/LIncome/L2010/L2020/L2030/L2040 you can adjust them all up. That is a potential 8% move. Obviously, it will always be less since you will never be allowed a full point move in any of the funds...
I missread your point on the AutoTracker. The answer is yes. You can see Amoeba leading the pack with over 50 trades this year. He makes and records lots of bailouts and <1% moves. My bigger point is that the AutoTracker does not - and cannot - compound in your salary contributions. I really don't want Tom poking around my privates.
And, the assets you have outside of G have whatever risk they have. However, if you are 96% G you will never lose more than 4% - yuk, yuk. I see where you are coming from. However, if everything else goes to 0 the best investment will be guns and butter churns.

The amount in each individuals account is a non-issue, nor is allocation contributions. If each person in the auto tracker starts with 1, as gains and losses are realized, that 1 fluctuates also. So hence my curiosity if we could do the <1% in the auto tracker to capture the reality of our individual accounts.
I understand the 0% risk of the G, but was trying to understand the risk of the allocation into the Equity funds.
The addition of L funds is to be able to ramp up exposure to equities in a volatile market. For example, if the market was flat, then hit a patch of volatility which may signal a breakout to either side. If I was 1%, 1%, 1% in CSI, the L funds would be good for another 3% exposure to equities? In theory I could adjust my exposure to equities up a hair shy of 6% a day, yes?
