Hey, I'm new to the TSP Talk site but have been watching pretty closely for a month or so now, figured it was time to take advantage of the message boards. I'm not really new to investing, used to play in commodities back in the 90s.

I've been contributing to the TSP since the mid 80s, usually 100% C, was 33% C, 33% S, and 33% I for the last couple years, but with the downturn last year decided to reallocate. Have been %50% G and 50% C for about 6 months then went to 75% G and 25% C for the last month or so, just went 50% C and 50% S yesterday to try and take advantage of a Santa rally so I'll be keeping a close eye on that. We'll see.
 
Welcome to the board HotRod! Commodities, huh? Tough stuff.

Thanks for joining us and good luck!

Thanks for the welcome, don't know how good of a handle I have on my investments these days, that's why I'm here, to see what others are doing and get a handle on things.

Hey kar krazy, what's that in the pic Z28?
 
Well today wasn't a real good start to my Santa rally play, lost about 1.9%...coulda been worse, I'll let it play out a little while.

KK you race that ss clone?

love to race , little small block , 10.89 on motor, 9.76 on NOS man i love the NOS:D,i usually run 12.00 real street class, easier on parts , but there is nothing like pushing that little blue button, and hold on real tight:D
 
hey H R , you have any gears sticking out of the back of your head :D this is something i just cant get rid of , love the need, the need for speed :eek:
 
Yeah, I do a little sports car racing, SCCA road racing. Been doing it for about 15 years now...something to spend money on.
 
HGL, I was planning on staying until at least the Dec 24th, may let it play until the 31st if things continue as they are. At least we didn't give Tuesdays gains back today.
 
Well, I'm retreating back to G tomorrow morning, will probably go 50 G, 25 S, and 25 C. Will probably jump to 100 G at the first sign of a break down. Looks like the seasonality play worked out alright, up about 8% before taking half off of the table this morning. We'll see what happens next week or two.
 
Well, did alright last week of Dec but seemed to give most back first three weeks of Jan. I guess when I'm gonna be in I should be all in and when I'm out, al out. Think I lost most of the Dec rally because I didn't get all out when I had the chance.
 
stop by and help me pull motor out of ole blue -n- help put in new bearings :D, i know wishful thinking, hope your making money
 
Well I decided to try the Sentiment Trading system starting the second week in Feb, sentiment has indicated a Buy signal. Well, following that system has been loosing me money hand over foot.
