Any Idea why the F Fund dipped yesterday? Maybe due to ex-dividend date or in advance of potential FED increase in December?

IDK but kind of annoying really...I would love to see them!

You may have to log in outside of work or check with your IT folks and see if they can unblock the site that the charts are linked to. Alternative is for Tomany to use acceptable file type

Chart 1 shows C fund Strength trying to catch-up with the S fund.

Chart 2 shows C fund Mood made a new all time high.

Chart 1 shows the Strength of the C and S funds pulling back some. That's happens sometimes, but one day does not a trend make.

Chart 2 shows C fund Mood was down a small amount. But it's still very high, and inline with seasonal expectations.

This is the error message I get...probably my IT guys blocking it...I went and checked to see those boxes are checked in my browser settings and they were so it must be something else...

That might have been a good thing. You stayed in the I fund, which did one of it's crazy tricks.

EFA -0.36% BUT I Fund +0.36%

I know it was because of currency exchange rates, but 0.72% difference!

I guess what drives me crazy is, there's is no reliable chart symbol to follow for the true I fund.

Congratulations to you and TimboSlice. And everyone else in the I fund yesterday.
Were you following Timbo, or on your own determined it was a better choice?

Updated EOD Monday December 4, 2017

Chart 1 shows the C Fund Strength overtaking the S fund. But what is more eye-catching, is the overall top rising until last Wed, then descending.

Chart 2 shows C fund Mood taking another step down, not a huge one, but the wrong direction for desirability.

I loosely follow the timboslice seasonal model as outlined by Aitrus, at the moment, I have stop loss rules I follow as well as using some basic charting...And I don't typically follow or copy anyone, however I noticed Timbo had made an interfund transfer and found it interesting, so I thought what the heck let's see what happens...and pulled the trigger to go to I fund...problem is, I am technically not in the green. The difference being is the day before, the I fund lost .8157% so I am still down overall for the month by -.4597%. :-( Nothing like starting a new month in the hole.


Good luck to ya!
Cheers!

Chart 1, shows the Strength of the stocks funds descending more. While the bond fund appears to be taking advantage.

Chart 1 shows the S Fund leading the stock funds down in Strength. The F fund has become the profitable darlin’ so far in this early part of December.

Chart 2 shows C fund Mood down more, even with only -0.01% lost in the price Wednesday.

My plan is to go to G very soon, however I believed the I fund would be next inline for a big day.
The IFTs not processing has put that plan in limbo now.

12squared, "have you got your ears on", do see something too?
