I would like to think that, but it's not looking good. VIX just climbed 7% which is no small movement, nasdaq is getting hammered, mostly due to apple, which is probably going to be tanking after missing earnings 3x in a row. And contrarianjeff just moved to G fund. All bad signs in my book haha.

Changed my contribution allocation from 100S to 100G. Don't want my contribution coming up in a few days to go in to small caps right at the top.

Good call. I didn't even think of that when I made my move to G yesterday. Thanks!

Your bottom line needs to be updated. 2% needs to be 3% increase per month. I'm going to get a PIP of 36% for 2013, at least. It makes good sense.

I'd shoot for 50% a year if I could, but it's not practical with IFT limitations and no leveraged options. My sig line is just for my TSP account. I take much more risk with my trading account. I almost certainly would have surpassed my 50% goal in that account last year if I hadn't deployed for the 4th quarter. But I do like where your head's at. I'd love a 36% year! I could make a living averaging that :)
 
What did you do with your TZA shares? I set a stop at 11.10 and mine sold for a minor gain. Nothing to write home about, but a winning trade is a winning trade. :) My TSP F fund shares are bringing me in a little dough today. I should move up a little on the tracker since the people still in C/S/I will be going down as I go up. :)

I kept the shares but will probably sell this afternoon when J gives a long signal.
 
Sold TZA @ 11.24 and picked up XIV @ 20.60. First time playing the Vix. Big swings there so I went light for now.
 
I'll make a few coins with XIV if these futures hold.

Taking the Personal Finance CLEP test this afternoon. Working on my degree 3 credits at a time!

Edit: Actually I think it's a DSST, but they work the same way.

I know the feeling. Good luck to you!
