I have read the beginning of this thread and can't figure out what Friend and Force tell me and what to look for to know when to move from G to S or the reverse. Can you explain?

Force must be above zero line AND friend must be up two days in a row before transferring to "S" fund

Thanks Tennessee Whiskey for answering for me, I have been traveling (in Tennessee, drinking too much whiskey) this weekend, and didn’t check in.

And yes, that’s what I’m waiting for (Force moving above 0). However, I can’t brag much about the method’s performance lately.

So FORCE popping up into above zero territory today and FRIEND creeping upwards the last few days. this would say jump into S fund time. i cant help but wonder if the investors are anticipating a strong August jobs report this coming friday; which would be a big piece of the puzzle for the Fed to start tapering.

Well I've been watching this for a while (I tune in for the cartoons if nothing else) and you say "system says move to S" after months of G. Did you do it?

Yes, I made the IFT September 2. My hopes (not worth much) are to stay in S fund past Christmas. A long time out should equal a long time in. :wink:

im curious if you tweak your algorithm from time to time, to refine it based on empirical evidence? If so, what changes have you applied?
