Can you re-state your rules for the <1% moves? I assume that money was being moved out of G into CSI to buy more shares on down days.
Is that right?

Turbo,
Below are two links from the <1% Option Account. They should help explain the process. You are correct. I was moving money (or shares) out of the G fund to purchase shares in the FCSI funds. Remember, you have to adjust all the funds that you are invested in.

Went to my TSP account to see what everyone else is talking about. Yep they tell you right at the bottom how much you have made or lost over the last 12 months. Anyone else feel like that is a slap in the face. I know how I am doing over the last 12 months. They do not have to rub it in and say "ha ha ha and you only have 2 IFT's imagine what you would have lost (or made) if we didn't limit you to only 2 IFT's a month". Gee thanks, tell me what I don't know.
OK, OK I might be over reacting a little.
Medic congrats on your positive numbers. I am negative as much as you are positive.

It gets lonely being a bottom feeder, just so you don’t feel too bad, my PIP was -14.27% :embarrest:
To everybody that was in the market yesterday, nice profit. For those that have not made the move good for you too. You might not have added to your account yesterday, but you haven't lost a ton either.
Two more days like yesterday and I will be out of the hole for the month.:nuts:
I sure wish my crystal ball wasn't in the shop.
Have a great day everyone.

Well sitting in G and ready to nickel and dime my account for a few days.
That was a great rally to be exposed to. I'm not surprised at all that the H&S pattern was a bear trap. And it came out of nowhere, so one would have had to embrace risk to take advantage. That one would have been worth spending an IFT on.

Facelift of TSP Web site stays on schedule

"Thrift Savings Plan officials on Monday said they are on track to debut a more user-friendly Web site in 2010, following a trial run this fall.
A beta version of the redesigned Web site will be available in the fall to a random sample of participants who log on to the current site, officials said during the Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board's monthly meeting. TSP Director Gregory Long expects to have the upgraded version online in the first quarter of 2010, depending on comments from users.
The redesigned site will include a section to guide TSP participants through life-changing events such as relocation or marriage. The site also will offer enhanced access to individual account profiles and a revamped retirement calculator, according to TSP administrators..........."

Well on the 15th I went 100% G and do not regreat the move. I was close to getting back into the green in my real account and wanted to lock in the earlier profits. I just didn't feel comfortable about this week so I jumped. In the past I haven't gone conservative soon enough to lock in the profits and got burned bad. I honestly thought the market was going to correct itself this week and was going to look for a nice entry point. Shock and awe. I missed out on a 5% gain this week by not being a player. 
But I still have no regrets. I still have a free ride ticket, so now I am debating whether to jump in today and hope for a continuing rally next week. 
Dang 2 IFT's.
