    But, isn't it true that this data is available after the daily deadline? The fifth grader would be a day behind and be guessing what EBB's next move would be, right?

    We were discussing a 5 day rule. Where your IFT's are not displayed until 5 days after the fact. My point was you can figure out Ebbcharts moves in one day with the way things are now.

    Future moves are not in question. No way of knowing unless your a subscriber or getting data from a subscriber.

    Wow! This thread has really taken off. I had no idea it was that easy to determine Ebb's moves from day to day. You all are way smarter than me, but since it's after the fact I guess I never really thought about it.

    The main problem at hand - and for which I was majorly guilty - is talking about Ebb to begin with. At times it's very advantageous to change the call on your own behalf (and make it known after the fact).

    But I never heard of the 5 day rule (or not disclosing anything until it becomes public knowledge). So it won't happen again.

    Not talking about Ebb is the easiest solution, and I no longer do. There is more than enough information regarding the Markets and our Economy to occupy our thoughts and time. And that's the point of this thread.

    We are in a transition of finding very significant pieces of information from each others postings - and determining the most appropriate action for ourselves. I studied Trader Fred's information on a regular basis and Ebb's as well - but now they are meaningless because I call my own shots - and I only have access to Ebb if I chose this down the road.

    But my dear friends - brothers and sisters of the TSP Site - the main message is letting Tom know his efforts are highly recognized and we all know he is doing everything possible to keep the peace. So Tom - keep up the good work and in the near future all this mess will be ancient history.

    Preimum members can now openly discuss the Ebb chart in a new premium message board. If you are a paying member and haven't seen the board yet, it is now there.

    thanks

    Where James? I didn't see a link to it on the Main Subscription page, or even the Ebb Chart page. I did recommend (to Tom) the addition of a link to the subscribed MB be posted on the Ebb Chart page.

    Yeah you are, look under Members Allocation talk, just below Member's Account Return's Tally. If you can't see it PM me and I'll try to get you activated.
