Who is making an EFT tomorrow?
I am still pretty new to the seasonal strategy, but I have seen some people talk about making a change tomorrow.
Where are you at now and what do you plan to do? Why?
Thanks!

If you click on the calculations, it has the current year to date.
MJedlins original (I follow a slightly different one) is at 10% and change for the year.

No mater how queasy things may feel now, the trend is up. And with almost all renewed rallies, the S-upper fund excels, as it is demonstrating today. However there will likely be a significant decline this year. So if you are in stocks now, enjoy the ride, but don’t be the last one to get off the train.
Note: I'm switching to S from I.

Tomanyiron, are you buying into the daily seasonal?

No I'm a diehard timer. I’m anticipating the S fund with “Strength and Mood” EOD.

Comparison of EFA & $DWCPF suggests that the relative strength of I over S may be waning. This is in sharp contrast with late April when I pulled ahead, and late May when S began to advance.

Re: Who is making an EFT tomorrow?
I have no IFT's this month... I decided to move to G today in my real TSP. In my effort to remain consistent to my 'over think' strategy, I'm looking to make a move in the next few days to S or I in anticipation of a dip. After I reap those earnings, I'm going to park myself in F until September.

Re: Who is making an EFT tomorrow?
Thanks for the chart 144, look at this.

Reversing the ratio, and adding S fund overlaid, also suggest you are correct.

With the gains today on the C fund I'm over 11% so far this year. I plan to stay with the monthly seasonal strategy below for now because it's working for me. I will move to the F fund for August & September. But I will be keeping an eye on the daily seasonal group to see how they fare going forward.
Good luck everyone.

Ditto on the seasonal. Also curious on how the daily will pan out.

Re: Who is making an EFT tomorrow?
Everyone who follows JoeMoeMoe appears to be switching from C to S.
