TALLY May '05

[FundSurfer]

THANKS PYRIEL for the help getting this together. Pyriel has been putting all the moves into a spreadsheet, and I've been doing the monthly totals. I would not have the time to do this tally if it were not for him.

I started keeping track of a few people I know are faithfully posting there moves. I like to see how people are doing. You should not use just this post to judge how people are doing totally because we don't have a long track record yet. As an example, someone could do very well in October but have had a very bad July/August.

I got these numbers using the post from each account talk list (2 exceptions - Milk-man was e-mailing me his moves during a 'vacation' and tspgo has a website where he posts his moves). If you are a regular poster but I missed you it was because I either felt you were not posting regularly, posting moves too late after deadline, thought you had quit or you were not posting in the right place. I did not get to check for any new additions to the list this month and only CSI got added because Pyriel had his data. Next month I'll have more time.

Since there are so many people posting, I'm not going to add you up if your post are too confusing or it looks like you missed some post (ie. you refer to a move that you made 3 days ago but did not post in your account). I'll catch you next month when you get it straight.

You'll notice a couple new changes. I added a total for 2005 column, added each of the funds as well as the 20% each fund, and have ranked the participants based on annual total so far.

Extras:

Spaf: Thanks for starting an account.

Rolo, it looks like the magic 8-ball has quit working.


If I missed you and you weren't included, PM me and I'll add you to the list or let you know where you confused me. There are so many new faces that it would be easy for someone to fall through the cracks.

[EW_ret]

Shouldn't the column headings read May, April. and March, rather than April, March and February?

Once again Fundsurfer and Pyriel- You're both > http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y72/W_W/Smileys%20Bubbles/FANTAS42.gif
For both of you > http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y72/W_W/Flowers/teen_boy_holding_out_roses_md_clr.gif


PS Pyriel,That's not just another guy; it's the delivery boy.

[FundSurfer]

Thanks EWguy, I was able to edit the post. You were correct.

[Rod]

Thanx for the effort!

BTW, "My Return Year" , as reflected on my TSP spreadsheet that Tom created is:

-1.56

That is quite a difference from the 2005 total of -3.71you have reflected.

IMO, our Return Year is a better representation of how we are truly doing.

Maybe you should request that from each of us next time?

Just a suggestion so the figures are not misleading as to how we are performing.

God Bless:cool:

[Gritz]

Thanks FundSurfer, really appreciate your time and effort. I was hoping April turned around, only wish it was larger %, but the strategy for now is hit and run and only conservatively until things clear up (also helps that I finally figured out the "lock in" procedure with TSP :shock:).

Again, nice job :^.



Regards,

Mike

Great job.

Know that is a lot of work.

Gives ya a good idea who to share with ideas with and who to avoid.

Not to be negative but everything you learn can be utilized for investing and your financial future.

Find folks that beat the indexes and interact with them.

Even if you have to PM to avoid the bashers. :D

[tspgo_com]

Thanks for your hard work. It's really appreciated.

Also I extend my appreciation and gratitude to Pyriel for his contribution to this board and to Tom for making this magnificent tool available to all of us.


TSPGO!

[cowboy]

Lets see here G man sells G makes +.11 a share buys S on 5/9 and sells on 5/17 losses .09 a share and at the end of the month gains +.14 a share and you have him gaining 3.56% for the month of May. Mmmmm? what am I missing here? It must be the setting in G in April that netted him the gain or what?

Hmmm... I could have sworn I checked you twice. Will relook at your tracker again...

These are through May. Rod, you may be looking at your chart totalsthrough today.

Once again, great job guys!!

And congrats G-man! That is a great turn for 2005!!

[tennisguy]

I have no idea how I got the highest for the month. Must have been beginners luck i guess. I wish I had more money in my tsp so i could actually see a big difference in my total. I have been listening to Tom, Mike, Rod, and Pyriel for guidance and make a decision from them. But this in only one month so don’t follow me! :cool:

Great job.

I would like permission to PM you sometime to bounce ideas of ya.

If that is ok?

Thanks and good going and being humble.

Cowboy,

I think you are onto something. Been analyzing the new tracker we were using. Will bounce this off with Fundsurfer... For those who wish to get the trackers which i usually send out weekly, please pm me your email add. I'll send one off this weekend.

Tom, I like how you show your gains/loss for the month in your site. I'll configure the trackers that way before I send it to Fundsurfer. He is my second eye and I have to rely on him to fix or reconfigure the formula for the tracker program. I'm just not too smart for these kind of thing...

Funny I don't see Dakota in the list. Spaf should show up at the end of the month.

Ladies and Gents, When I send out the tracker weekly, please inform me if I had made a mistake. This way I can fix it before I pass it on to fundsurfer. I am only human and having a low IQ I tend to make mistakes often. Goodluck...:dude:

Thanks for that! This week I am pretty clear on. Next week is foggy to me. My radar really only goes out two days at most. Anything after that is speculation.
Once again. I appreciate that and will PM you over the weekend.:D

[Brak]

As much as I liked the looks of the tally, it didn't look quite right.........

You missed a transfer into the I Fund on May 17.

Myactual total for May is a whopping 0.30.

Could've been better but it's still black ink, right?

[mlk_man]

I have me being up about 1.5% for May. No biggie though.

Be careful with those PM's guys. Especially from someone who changes their avatar as often as they change nics. Do your own thing..................:^

I am actually up a lot more with the IRA's that I manage simply because I don't or can't transfer into an "I" fund. I can transfer into international funds, but they sure aren't like our "I" fund. This can be tracked at moneytalk. I'm up 3.21% for the month there. Some of you know this already. Taught me a lesson anyway. STAY AWAY FROM THE "I"................;)



Nice job to all those making money!

Be extra special of the people that can not beat G fund when the S was up over 6 for the month and rant about their great returns day after day after day and their great system.:(

What do ya say?

I'll give you fair warning though, if you read my other post, the reason my return sucked last month was because of the I fund..........I won't be playing it when I put you in your place.................:^

Milkman, I found a couple errors, but I did not get to 1.5%. Would you recheck your spreadsheet versus your account? June 1 was a very good day, make sure you are not adding that to your total on your spreadsheet. I've made that mistake before myself. If you still have a different amount, e-mail me your spreadsheet, I'd like to figure this out.

I totally missed Gman's move on 5/16 to 100i. I also did it wrong when I moved him to 100s on 19 Jan. It should be 18 Jan.

As far as Rod is concern, I redid his tracker. I am attaching it here. Sorry Rod... I really screwed upyour tracker. Fund, can you retally his... thanks...

[FundSurfer]

Pyriel, I did not see any change in Rod's sheet when compared to mine. I know we did have a change earlier in the year. What actual change did you make?

Citizen now has highest last Quarter! (Sorry G-man, as a consolation you have highest year to May)

For Rod, there were too many to mentioned. I really don't know what happened... Can you just validate the one that I attached earlier and see if it matches yours... Thanks...

Thanks Fund, actually your right about the June 1st date.

I think I already had the corrections for Rod's. I rechecked (even cut/pasted from your posted sheet to make sure) and the numbers did not change.

[cowboy]

You guys have one tough job here! It will be like wrangling steers in a muddy arena. I like the tally monthly I think it is great! I only looked at G-Man because he was top doggy. Keeping track of transfers has to be tough. I am thinking if were to do this Pyriel & Fundsurfer should have a thread where the ones being tracked validate the move we make so they aren't searching for everyones moves. Maybe we could have some type of spread sheet where if you move you provide it to the spread sheet and they imput later or something. :i

It has to take a lot of time and effort to do something as track alland as membership grows the harder this will be.

[nnuut]

You Guys are GREAT, Thanks:^

[FundSurfer]

Pyriel, how are you calculating your return for the month and the quarter from your spreadsheet? You don't have a value for the end of the month (I've added one onto spreadsheet I use for the Tallyand calculate at COB 5/31). I'd bet the difference is in the dates you are using to calculate. Are you adding June 1 like milkman did? It was a very good day.

Cowboy what you are suggesting is a good idea. One problem is that we want to make sure all the calculations are fair and that people don't Monday morning Quarterback their returns. We would still have to check their account to make sure they were entered correctly. Might still save some time. Perhaps we could have people attach a file to their accout thread which had their moves in a specific format that would be easy to import. I'll have to gie it some thought.

[cowboy]

I'm sure with everyone watching if someone Monday morning quarterbacks their peers will let everyone know and then the Tally Police can judge the move. They still will have to post the move in there own account thread as usual and this can be the deciding point as to when a move is justifiable. What might help is a Tally sheet with everyones name with 31 days listed and they go in and put a check mark on the day they make a move in their thread then you know some type of move has been made that day in their account. This would at least let you know that a move was made on a certain day by a particular member. You would not have to worry about searching through everyone that day.

That's nothing to be proud of. :P

Also, I haven't scrutinized the spreadsheet to make sure it's right. I don't care enough to spend the time needed to double check everything. It's just not that important. Once in awhile, I'll use the old reliable equation (current balance minus 1/2 contributions divided by starting balance + 1/2 contributions)to check my actual return to see if I'm meeting my expectations or not.

[Show-me]

Hi,

Hate to throw salt in a open wound.............but I did recheck my spreadsheet and I have myself at 2.23% for the month of May. If its any consolation when I rechecked my numbers I had made a error myself. There was one move that I made under the wire and posted at 11:01 a.m.

Tracking my own move is hard enough but you guy’s are tracking 23. If you what to drop me off of your tracking please feel free. I feel guilty and think you may be overwhelming yourselves. You are doing a fantastic job and are very much appreciated!

Pyriel aren't you on VACATION! LOL

I think people who aren't having their accounts tracked publically should be strongly discouraged from ripping / antagonizing those who are.

Things are very different when you know everyone who wants to can see every transaction you make with your TSP account.

I tried it last night and it was a disaster. I decided to leave that up to you now. Spent an hour hour analyzing just my month and quarterly returnand could not figure out how to fix it. Can you redo mine (with monthly return) using the spreadsheet i attached (my total return and your total return is not matching)... Thanks...

Show me, i'll look at yours again.

Rod, have you had a chance to check your tracker that I attached? Is it different from yours?

MM, you did email me that I made a boo boo on that move. I'll recheck it again on my side...

I completely agree with Mike. Seems like someone is trying to stir up something. Before you start knocking on someone's return, you need to have a little history to back you up. People in the past have been banned for such behavior.

DMA has started an account so he can build a little history.

[Citizen]

:shock:

I don't know how that happened. Past results do not forcast future returns. Thanks for the chart, it is pretty cool. Thanks Tom for the site.

biggdog,

I started tracking you but I had to start you off as 5/24/05. Your post for 5/22/05 is confusing. Additionally, we can't track you for previous allocation if it is not posted. Right now, I got you for 0.77%. pm me your email add and i'll add you to the list of posters that i've been sending the trackers on a weekly basis.. good luck... You should show up for eom Jun...

:) I'm thrilled with the fundtracker that Fundsurfer sent me!

Now, for the same old question that I never understood the answer to because of all the confusion!

Let's say I move everything to the C fund on July 1, placing the IFT before noon EST on July 1.

On the fundtracker, do I show 100 C on July 1 or July 2?

Thanks

GAWGA



moved to 100c before 1200 est 7/1/05.

Your fundtracker will reflect 1 Jul 05 as the last day you will be from your previous fund. So, if you were 100g before that moving to 100c, you will then get the fund price for 1 Jul 05 and place it as your last day for 100g.

You should put"current" for your 100c. You should continue to put current until you decide to move again and you should just repeat that process over and over again.

Hope it helps... P

Pyriel, if you add greg, please take me off. I'm getting enough spam mail as it is. That's one reason I took my e-mail off this site.

Thanks,

Hey, the only numbers I fudge are the ones I show my wife from my checkbook!

Actually, that comment doesn't sit well with me. It suggest that Pyriel and I would fudge numbers to satisfy bragging rights. (I probably would given the right inducement.) But the trades are posted publicly and only Tom can edit post after a few hours, so what's the point?

Greg, like I said in my post, I didn't really get a chance to look for new additions to the Tally this month due to lack of time. Sounds like Pyriel added you to his tracker and you'll be in next months list. Your May returns should show up as well. It wasn't an intentional slight.

Fundsufer that was not directed at you guys.

You do great work. Once again it was not a dig at you or Pryiel.

It is a long story that carried over from another thread.

The thread in question has been cleaned up so now my post makes no sense.

Iaplogize for it. Did not mean torile you up. :(

Once again. You do great work and we are very appreciative of it.:)

I added him into the tracker but I am not sending it to him. Fundsurfer gets it and compiles it for monthly report. Do you still want me to take you off the mail list? I think you misunderstood what I had said.;)

DMA, Thanks for the clarification. I was really offended with that remark. I am sure that other posters will be able to tell you how strict I am with following people's moves. To the point that a couple of them have stopped posting due to my constant follow up about the need to post in time or not to quarterback. I only do this to help people and for intrinsic reward. I feel that I have learned enough to be on my own to leave this site but I stay because I was once ignorant about the market and this site had provided me the tools to at least somewhat understand it.
All, As for the bickering that is happening here, I propose for posters who would like to continue doing that to post in other section of this board. People would like to learn by going through posters' account talk and account. It is really making my job harder to track everyone because of this due to the fact that I not only have to track peoples moves (and there are quite alot of you) but I also have to now edit people's account talk so that newbies can learn from other people. Just to inform you all, I am now taking more time deleting unnecessary posts than tracking people. So if my tracker that I provide Fundsurfer at the end of the month is messed up, please be kind enough to know what is going on that may have caused that to happen.
I am not directing this to certain personnel but merely trying to have you all to see my point of view. Thanks for helping me keep the the account talk and account clean as much as possible. Pyriel

Pryiel I pmed you my concerns on a number of occasions thatthat I was having problems with my posts being changed. Once again with the other thread being cleaned up my post is really really stupid. A issue moved over to this thread from there. It was wrong of me to post what I did :(.

In no shape our form was that direct at you two fellahs.

We appreciate all your hard work.

Glad you are learning and feel confident with your investing.

When private accounts come through you are going to need all the knowledge you can get. Because if you do not do well in the market your future may be under a bridge. :( Not to be negative but that is where this is heading.

Ownership society rocks!!!!!!!!
