I'm not very creative but here the EBB song.
( sung to the tune of "Beverly Hillbillies") Let me tell you a little story 'bout a man named ebb, poor g'ment worker barley kept his family fed. Then one day he was playin' with his charts and up from the chart came a system to win..... ebbgold, ebbtea... well the first thing you know ole ebb's a millionaire, tsp folk said, ebb we'll "flow" along. So they loaded up the cash and they followed Ebb, ... EbbnFlow that is... spin charts.... x-checks"

Nice one, Clester....that was foot-stompin' fun ! :cheesy:

Nice one there Clester
I propose we give Ebb a 100% raise and a promotion!
Lets see: 0 x 100% =
Oh well!
Spaf
PS: maybe nnuut can figure it out!

Nice one, Clester....that was foot-stompin' fun ! :cheesy:

Twilight Zone! Loved that show! :nuts:

This is a good article to read about using a speed bump for those people who use IFT frequently. Also, Mike Causey says that it was 4 to 1 ratio in favor of limits or fees. Why don't we all E-MAIL him to show our support that we are against Limits or Fees.

Do we have another thread on this topic yet? Don't want to take over Ebb's place. In order to have an effective email campaign, we need some talking points. IF someone with TSP smarts(Definitely not this monkey) could provide us with a template/boilerplate email, we could get more people to respond and inundate mr. Causey. I hope the TSP board hasn't decided to move towards fees or limits...

Email to Causey

Don't know if it did any good, I'm not educated enough on all this to speak convincingly, but I also sent an email to Mike Causey. It can't hurt. The more he sees there is another side to this coin, the better.

Thanks Ebb!!! Again!!!! We're all very grateful to you for sharing your knowledge!!!

By the way, I AM compiling a master list of all the "Ebbonics" seen here. :toung: I may end up writing a book.....

The Ebb Factor; The force that precipitates the phenomenon (EbbFlow) of a noticeable shift of TSP assets from one fund to another.

Ebbstatic - The great feeling of once again being in the fund with the highest return for the day.

 

[DrunkenMonkey]

I-fund does it again. Thanks for another great call.

Ebb, I see that monday's Ebbchart looks like it's bleeding out...that means that Friday before noon I should make an IFT to the F or G fund, correct?

I've been sitting on the sideline and at the bottom of the tracker list for too long I'm jumping on the Ebbwagon! :laugh:

I've been following ebbnflows in and outs from the funds and it looks very interesting and profitable.

I haven't seen anything on how he has come up with the different funds being either green or red on a certain day, which combined then determine what fund to be in.

What's the basis of those decisions. Must all be done electronically, based on some pre suppsed conditions right?

Need some better understanding?

Thanks

Actually, 3 stop signs is now a contrarian buy signal. The Ebbchart is going to the S fund for Monday.

Gotta agree with Remo here. I've been fighting for lowest position on the tracker with MY system. It's just not working right now. Thanks to the Ebbtracker, at least I am finally in positive territory for the year. Thanks Ebb.

Thanks, this aquarian is goin' contrarian for Monday.

 

[ebbnflow]

Moving back to the I-fund. Looks like the safe haven move is not panning out at the moment. But the I-fund and S-fund are lagging big time. Good luck all!

-FV lookin better

Sailor, I just started tracking the C and S-fund with the ebbtracker this year (Jan. 16). The ebbtracker compares past historical patterns with the present patterns and tries to find the closest matches. It goes through some more process and I get either a buy (green) or sell (red) signal. The original idea was if two or more signals were green, then I go to stocks. Two red signals and it's the safe haven (G/F-fund). After more than half a year, five of the patterns on the ebbchart has panned out as expected, while three of the patterns didn't. Those three patterns are now turned to contrarian patterns to start working for us. Read more about the evolution of the contrarian patterns on the EbbChart Trading System web page (scroll down).
