I fund 6/23/17

Post by Scarfinger »

I am trying to follow the "clapper" seasonal strategy. Hence forth a move to the "I" fund is coming for July. Also keeping an eye on the "tmj100" fashioned after Timboslice's past moves.

I decided to go "I" early based on it bouncing up from the 50 day moving average the previous two times. Crossing my fingers, hoping that this pattern continues. If it tanks I will be riding it out from now and through most of July. I may jump to "F" a little early, before August, because I am going on vacation the last week of July.

I made this chart back on Jan 6th:

Heading to the I on Monday or Tuesday before noon to hit hopefully the end of June upswing. Doing the daily seasonal.

Looks like the I fund is trying to break the 50 day moving average.

VEA down 0.19%, UUP up 0.57%, so I Fund should be down pretty big today...

(checks tsp.gov)

Nope! I Fund is up 0.23% for Monday, 7/3/2017! You know what? I give up.
Nobody knows what the market is going to do in the future. Stop asking. Just shut up and follow strategy #72033 to glory.

Add C & S and select "Current Allocation" and you'll see that C & S are up 3 times I.

That's not the point I was trying to make. The I fund is 16% so far for 2017. The next best was 11% in 2013. It is crushing this year.
