And then there is me.:confused: But I have a gain if 4.46 and #27 on the AutoTracker thing. I am out of IFTs until next month. I am holding 90% G fund and 5% each C and S funds.
 
Wow - that was a surprise. Lost over 2% for the month but somehow made the top 5 GEEEEZZ. How many of you are going away in May?
 
Are there forums out there for what folks have done once they retired and now manage their tsp funds on the outside in an IRA?

Sorry been out of touch for awhile on vacation..... Did I miss anything?:blink:

Currently 50C/50S - thinking about a move to 100%S for my first move this month.... The trend is your friend......Altho capital protection is not out of the question.....
 
Hello, friend! I moved to 100% S on Monday. Getting like 1+ gains so far. Looks promising since Yellen's talk today.
 
FireGal, I am glad U like my comment. Hope U stay on the 1st place for long time... U may need to share U strategies sometimes and teach us your wisdom... :)
 
Mine is way too simple. MACD, slo STO, the trend is your friend, 3 higher highs to get in, 3 lower lows to get out. Someone mentioned on a post several months ago about always being in the market on the first of the month. I tried that strategy at the end of September and used an IFT to get back in for October and took a pretty big hit. Just checked VXF on Stockcharts and I am getting close to making an IFT- likely AGG.⚡🔥

Care to share your settings for macd and slo sto?
 
I use the defaults. MACD 11,26,9/ Slo STO 14,3. One other indicator I'm kinda liking is Williams%R. AGG just made a cross over Friday (day 1) in the SloSTO; I watch the slope on the MACD rather than a crossover - lags a bit as one of my positive confirmations for a IFT.

VXF is unnerving - sitting in the same spot for 5 days. SPX looks "ok" as it is now in new territory but not enough for me to IFT into. ⚡
