Poolman's Account Talk

I don't know anywhere you can get real-time streaming data, which you need for realtime charts, without opening an account with that providing broker or paying a fee. WWW.Prophet.net and E-trade.com offer 5 minute delayed streaming quotes/charts for free, just register. Think or swim might do the same, I think.

For TSP, with our 2 IFT/month, 5 min. delayed is really more than adequate. :)

I may be joining someone soon. I have to research this also. I'm still waiting for my ING account to be set up all the while my account loses money. I love this process. I have to get into control. I'm sure my account will be set up when it is at it's absolute low. :rolleyes::mad:

So Poolman, is your ING account for an IRA or something, or are you pulling TSP money and putting it into the less restrictive ING account?

My husband is six months away from being old enough to take his TSP lump sum without tax penalties, and we are thinking seriously of putting it into something where we have more control - - real time trades and more than two trades a month. That's why I'm asking.

Hello XL-entLady,

This account is for my 401K from the swimming pool job. I'm waiting for ING to transfer it from Franklin Templeton. I have to let ING make the transfer so I don't have any Tax Implications.
 
I find the Trading with TK video interesting....heh heh. He uses this "technical" term "vacuum"...ha! All he's showing is that the market goes "up" and then the market goes "down" and then the market goes "up and then..... Sometimes it takes a long time to go up, or down, and sometimes it is a short span...ha! So, I know nothing...but, I could have made that video!! :) Ha! What kind a analysis that?!?! Ha!

I will not be making a move today. Staying 100 - S

The action looks good so far and I'm hoping to get some follow through.

Economic charts tomorrow look light. FOMC Meeting on Wed also looks like

a play. I rode it down, I'll ride it up. :sick:

TK'S Video was Interesting.
 
If you think it will end up + today....probably not a bad time to take a little off the table..... a little at a time??

I think we might get some good news this week and some end of month

window dressing. I think if we are going to test the lows it will be in Feb.

I probably would not have stayed my position if we where not already

near the lows.

I'll be keeping the 50% S-fund longer. IMHO S is the place to be if you can find the right exit point. :rolleyes:

I see....at least you are good at decision-making! It's certainly a hard time to try to decide on this market! Good Luck!!!

Looks like you're going to get the usual end of the month rally. Just sucks when we only have two moves. It's hard to not do anything until the last week of the month.:D
