    Default Hi Fellow TSPers

    Hi Fellow TSPers, just joined TSPtalk and look forward to posting here. I've been following the markets for many years and have my own market tracking system. Currently my system is on a Wait recommendations for all 4 funds. C,S, I, and F. Eventually I'd like to post my system recommendations for all to see once I have my own thread here. The system did throw sells back around 2/26 and 2/27 and am very happy about that for the C, S, and I funds. I'm expecting some panic selling to develop in the next 2-3 weeks and then hopefully a rally going into April. Currently still sitting in the G-fund 100%. We'll see how it goes.

    I recently retired from Dept. of Veterans Affairs and am a Vietnam Vet. I have to be careful with my Allocations being retired so no shooting from the hip from this investor. I try to play the 2 week cycles, swing trading. That is my style. So look forward to chatting with you all. Let's make some money! Best of Luck to all!

    Hey Here's14...

    I am not a VIETNAM Vetly, but waited a year after the war officially ended, sorry - was not old enuff. But I put my 21 yrs following the Vietnam war...thanks for your service and it certainly added to our freedoms. Those damn commies, marxists, and socialists (we know they are running for the BIG one), so let's get real and keep charging. Okay, too much for some who ascribe to that force, but just want to show you my true appreciation for what you and "we" have fought for. Perhaps some will realize that such service translates into the TSP somehow, but IMO you better believe it does!! Well anyways, Welcome aboard even if um quite the newbie too! I have also followed the market for some years. Besides being a Vet like you, a passion for our country's future, I have, I am told, a gift (autism is probable) with numbers. I would appreciate any insights you may have.....Let's make some money - retiring is a few years down the road too, THANKS!! - BIGBULLY!!

    Nice to have you aboard.

    You can learn a whole lot here- right now the trick is protecting assets. We'll get more into the building part later, when we've hit the bottom. Be careful in the meantime with those 2-week swings. Could work, but then again, you could get caught flat-footed. It's happened to all of us at one time or another.

    Best of luck.
