"the biggest mistake that traders make is to let these short-term trades turn into longer-term investments when they don’t work." RevShark
Ah, the vague English grammer. Thanks for pointing that out, evilanne. I understood the latter but can now see the former as the meaning as well.
I also hope for a bounce in early January. That's why I'm still in the market. We will have to see if the theory of waiting until 2018 to sell for tax purposes will put a damper on that.
Yes the Santa rally does start later in December and extends into early January, but I consider everything on monthly basis because of our IFT limitation. If we didn't have that I probably would have gotten out for the first trading day of 2018.

Did not mean to offend by asking about your name. I just thought it was cute and wondered how you came by it. Many have posted about how they came by their name, myself included, but if I have offended you I am sorry. I certainly do not want to become "certain people"
Raven out!
No offense taken...I got along great with my neighbors and the name just stuck so I have used it online ever since
Is anyone else having problems logging into their TSP account this morning. When I try l to use their website, https://www.tsp.gov/tsp/login.html, it never comes back from the login. When I try to use the phone menu all I get is a series of clicks after I enter my credentials.

No problem logging in but seems to have an issue when I click on anything. Then I got kicked out.
Called TSP...they are having some type of outage...suggested to try back in a few hours.

Same here with the website.
I was able to log in but it took a long time. The site was really slow and finally showed only a blank screen, not good if you want to IFT.
Thanx for the feedback, everyone. I was thinking they were down to patch their servers for "Meltdown" and "Spectre" but they hadn't posted anything saying they were down for maintenance.
I hope no one was going to try an IFT today.

I was going to take a bigger position if it dropped...I wonder if I'm getting suckered in for the big correction we've all been waiting for for a year... :-O
Honestly, I think that correction has been put on hold for a year or two....We'll see if congress gets rebalanced to spoil the party.
