Do you follow the Daily Seasonal with your real TSP?

I would really like to see how 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2002 show in this strategy. I'm curious to the issue with an economic downturn.

I tried to put it together but I couldn't find all the daily share prices. From what it looked like 2003 was going to be a negative year by like 17%? I probably did it incorrectly though so don't mind me!

Moved 50% to Daily and kept 50% in Monthly (GClapper).

Interesting to note that there's currently only 64 votes of "Yes, I follow a daily seasonal", yet there are well over 100 people with pending IFTs to S. I can't imagine that's a coincidence since the current leading strategy moves to S. So I don't think the poll isn't very representative of what people are really doing.

Well I think there's a pretty big difference in how a lot of people do their fantasy tsp vs. their real tsp. So while a lot of folks are willing to give it a go for their fantasy, they may be reluctant to "go for it" with their real money. Real losses suck, while fantasy losses... haha.

Also some folks just hate polls.

Good point. I sometimes forget they don't always mirror each other. Now I feel dumb.

That's what I'm doing, too. I'm not brave enough to go 100% yet maybe after a big correction or recession.

[Atbattin]

Maybe a follow-on poll that allowed for another "yes" choice (i.e. - "Yes, I'm experimenting with a Daily strategy" or something along those lines) would provide more insight and explain all the IFTs to S today. There may be some (myself included) that are using a Daily strategy for a portion of their real TSP but didn't feel comfortable with answering Yes. Awesome work BTW!

I'm a recent subscriber. There is much to absorb. I understand alot of this only at a high level and am learning by reading your posts. Thanks to all of you for an informative discussion. The post regarding a mix between daily and monthly is interesting. For now I'm watching how this works and think I will be more comfortable with a move to daily in the latter part of September after I'm better educated. So for now my mix here remains what it was before I found this great resource. Again thanks to all for helping me learn here.

I follow #7474 with my real tsp.

[onerepmax]

I'm in 100% S. I haven't chosen a final strategy yet. It will likely be #7980 for it's significantly lower deviation, while still indicating over 30% mean and 6000% total.

Is anyone using the top strategy of 10716?
