Thread: Weekly Tally - Helpful or Hurtful?

rokid,

My opinion is that you are doing a great service to everyone. On a weekly basis they can see what works or does not work. Everything in life takes some sort of disciple to be successful. If some are making to many move it is their choice and perhaps your tally will show them that. Ewguy does the tracker weekly and should we shut him down also? I think not. Some people may be being hurt by seeing the tally or tracker weekly but also some may be benefiting from it.

The tracker and the tally can be used as a great tool to show everyone what is working and what is not working. IFT are a choice each individual makes for themselves and if some are unsuccessful absolutely no blame should be laid at yours or Ewguy's feet. JMHO

Man! don't talk FOOL! Love the weekly Tally!!
Keep up the good work it's a beniefit to all of us.

Rokid,

I agreed with you and show-me totally. I found the information is useful for my allocations and it led to my success this year so far. I think it should be continued.

Ewguy is doing a great job and so did MM when he was a tracker. Your tally is really helpful and thanks for your hard work. In my opinion, if one found the information is not helping, just ask for delisting from the tally.

I think everything that needed to be said has been said. Keep it.

Nnutt I don't think your comment was needed.

Techy says keep it so I'd keep it.

Might I suggest posting ones weekly win/loss percentage instead. Or perhaps adding it to the tally. That would save me some time doing it myself.

Thanks M_M, You're right, as always.

This is my whole post BTW.........trouble happens when you post part of something..........

Rokid, can you take me off your weekly tally please. I understand the monthly tally, but to post it every week I think is over doing it. I've learned that trying to make so much in one week with TSP is just plain stupid. I think doing a weekly tally is making people move around more than they should so it's not really helping anyone here.

This does not include the weekly tracker which think is helpful.

Thanks,

M_M

You didn't receive it, I posted it. Big difference......

M_M makes a good point. In reality, returns over a very short period don't mean a whole lot. However, for me, watching how the market changes, how people react to those changes, and how successful some people have been with their strategies is interesting.

That said, I don't want to negatively impact any one's returns (or retirement). PM me if you'd like to be removed from the tally. It won't impact your tracker status.

In addition, the attached poll allows you to vote for or against a weekly tally. Majority rules!-----Rokid

I am confused.

What's the difference between the weekly tracker and tally?

What? You make a big comment earlier and you don't know the difference? Are you democrat?

I make one little statement about being remove from the WEEKLY tally and it becomes a big issue.

Guess I'm just a fool...........
