Weekly Account Tally Talk

Look at what the situation was like last year at this time (rokids tally)

Rokid's Tally early Feb

No one was beating the S or the I. You were the only one of last years top 7 to be in the top 20% at that time.

I personally was twice as far behind the S and I last year at this time compared to where I am now.

Don't be discouraged...It is the nature of the timer to slip behind the funds when they are making progressive gains. It's the sacrafice we make to not get walloped when the herd are riding their Ducati's into the valley.

I believe I beat the C fund but certainly not the S fund, as of 1/31.

You Guys, 3+ and 4+% in a month that had Wall Street scratching it's head!

You can do it the rest of the year!

Unbelievable. I'm so impressed.

The 3-4% a month is what I would like to do also.

That is really making things happen and staying in the game.

It is great to be able to see people who make this happen and that means it is there for the taking if I can keep a handle on things.

Thanks to all.

Just remember that 3-4% in one month does not mean 3-4% every month.

Sure it does...

Yes, I do understand that about the per month figures. I should have stated that also. I would not expect it myself, but it is a figure I would like to keep shooting for in order to stay ahead. If I could stay above 2% it would be good also. This is a continuous learning process for me and being here now has opened my eyes.

Thanks to all

Damn, I dropped from 16th to 79th and my account went up!

Seems to me a lot of people don't remember or weren't invested in 2000-2002. Sometimes not losing anything is a good thing. The market can be very humbling. It can also make you look like you have a crystal ball at times. I know of one person who has had a good year so far, well, part of the year anyway, but last year he sucked all year. If you are into new music, check out Blue October's "Hate Me". They are from Texas.......

I believe that would be me!

I wouldn't say I sucked all year.

I was @ 4.48% in May before I lost my pants.

My lowest point was -6.52% (Jun 13)

I ended the year @ -3.27. (recovered 3.25% since Jun 13)

With YTD gains, I've made up 6.56% since Jun 13.

Still in recovery...

I just want to say this is a great site! I read most threads and I thank each of you for your input and for giving me the wisdom in deciding how to make my IFTS!
