How to Use TSP Talk Like a Pro
| The TSP Talk Essentials |
TSP Talk is not a tool, it’s a toolbox. TSP Talk is full of resources for you to shape, fine-tune, and perfect your TSP investment strategy — most of them are free. Let’s take a walk through the essentials. This is a guide on how you can become a TSP Talk pro.
Learn about the market through our Free Market Commentary
The TSP Talk Market Commentary should be your first stop to get the latest insights on the inner workings of the market and how they relate to the TSP funds. The Market Commentary is written by TSP Talk founder Tom Crowley. Nobody has their eyes on the market and its relationship with the TSP funds like Tom. Tom has been consistently providing free daily TSP investment insight since starting TSP Talk in 2004.
The TSP Talk Market Commentary is published each day before the market opens. TSP Talk pros read the Market Commentary to get ahead of the market and understand its patterns.
For best measures, bookmark the Market Commentary page or sign up for commentary alerts sent to your email.
Join the TSP Talk Forum
Some just read the TSP Talk Forum, but TSP Talk pros engage. Join the conversations and become a resource to other members. The array of conversation is wide on the TSP Talk Forum but above all it is a community for us to learn and share our experiences and successes.
TSP Talk pros new to the forum will introduce themselves at the Member Introductions forum. Share your story on your journey toward a prosperous retirement. Once you’ve explored and are comfortable with the forum, it is time to start your own Account Talk Thread.
Create your own thread to talk about your account transactions, strategies, returns, etc. on Members’ Account Talk. Some TSP Talk pros have had their Account thread going since 2006.
Sign up for the Forum Here and when you’re ready it’s time to introduce yourself.
Keep track of your investments with the TSP Talk AutoTracker
Now to take your investment journey to the next level, you’ll want to join the TSP Talk AutoTracker. The TSP Talk AutoTracker is exclusive to TSP Talk Forum members. This is where you track your TSP account returns in our simulated TSP AutoTracker. But you won’t be alone. You will see your investment track alongside hundreds of other TSP Talk pros. Here you can compare your returns with your peers and compete for prizes and bragging rights on the forum. Or just use the TSP Talk AutoTracker to track your own progress and past investment strategies.
To tie things together, we will link your AutoTracker to your forum page for a quick reference to your investments.
