Nice avatar.
May the force be with us.
On our current trajectory, I'm guessing about a 15 to 20 point move up in S&P will get us too the RSI threshold for me to sell 50%. Although I'm in the I fund, I use the S&P as a major guide in overall market movement. The S fund won't get to new highs and the I fund won't break it's 50 dma in this scenario.
In this scenario and since we are so close to September, I may sell 100% and look for a good buying spot. This would break my system rules so I would need to buy back in soon. At least 50%.

interesting to listen to the chatter around fed. Consensus seems to be that we will sell off after the speech. That we are in need of pull back Lots of tspers are already out too.
My experience is that if something is expected it usually doesn't happen. Lets see how it plays out.

I'm thinking she'll use recent lagging in the retail industry and low real estate inventories as an excuse to keep the rates down.

I think she'll draw more crash groupies.
The I fund is getting hurt by the dollar and the ftse being closed. I'm wishing I dad picked the S or C fund.
I'm thinking we will rally through Wednesday or thursday before profitctaking kicks in. I plan on getting all the way out this week which is against my system. I should stay in 50%. I have a couple days to decide.

RSI is at about 67 and my sell point is 70. I'm guessing we'll hit it this week. Maybe another 10 points or so should do it. I'm still thinking about selling 100% since we have new trades next week and I'm at a sell point. Its a bull market though so I'll need to put at least 50% back to work very soon next month is we don't have a pullback. A retest of the 50 DMA would be a good spot to buy back in 50%.
Not selling today but looks like it will be soon.

Hmm, your sig and your AT data show you as being 100I. The I Fund isn't necessarily going to drop when the C and/or S Funds do. The I Fund's RSI is actually in very good shape (low to mid 50s). My own opinion is that the I might pop upward again soon, especially with it now in a squeeze between 100DMA and 10DMA. However, it does make a lot of sense to make a "safe play" move before the month ends. I wouldn't want to burn IFT#1 for September on a move to the G Fund either.
Just a thought, but have you considered keeping a smaller amount of your money in the I Fund? Doing so would keep at least some of it still in play in the event the I Fund continues to climb, but would make any drops far less painful to your account balance.

Thanks for the comment. My thinking is that when us markets go down so do others. I fund is nearing resistance at its 50dma. Its RSI is in good shape and if it breaks above its 50dma its a strong buy and I would get back in. My system dictates that I stay in at leas 50% during bull markets so I'd be going against it. Any move out 100% would need to be shirt term.
