    Re: Bear Cave 2 (Bull Allowed)

    Same here. Got out 100% on Monday evening and back my truck in last Friday evening. Glad to have gained a bunch of C and S papers.

    Re: anyone feels like we're being setup?

    I noticed the imbalance too about the large caps, but didn't know about the "final stage" stuff. I'm still in the market 100% though.

    Re: anyone feels like we're being setup?

    Don't see any threat, except the Fed's rate hike. But even the economists discounted it being the threat.

    Re: IFT and effectivity

    That's what I thought. But TSP account balance showed my fund was on C on the day I made the IFT to C, and computed the gain as if it was in C for that day. That's what got me confused.

    IFT and effectivity

    A week ago, the market went up 20 some points. Seeing that the market was going up, I decided to make an ITF (before 11:00) to move the remaining money from G to C.

    Re: From all G to S today

    I got out on the day of massive drop. Then got in on the day of massive gain. Luckily, I bought in at the same price I got out (C fund). Wasted 2 IFTs for nothing. Pain in the a$$.

    Megaphone pattern is forming on C and S. I fund has been making lower highs and lower lows.

    "Bad" is not the right word, but I don't have any good words for it.
