TSPFundTrading.com, LLC is the leading professional financial service that provides expert market analysis of the Thrift Savings Plan funds. Our primary objective is to provide guidance for Federal employees and members of the uniformed services during both bullish and bearish markets. We are not affiliated with the TSP, Thrift Savings Plan, tsp.gov, frtib.gov, or any U.S. government agency or uniformed military services. Our IFT Allocation Service has been live since Jan 1, 2005.


As you know, the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) is an extremely important part of the federal retirement system. The TSP is widely recognized as one of the finest, most elegantly simple, and popular retirement plans of its kind. As of Dec 31, 2020, there are approximately 6.2 million participants and more than $735.2 billion in assets under management in the TSP. The TSP is the largest defined contribution retirement plan in the world. However, we have found that the majority of these investors do not have the proper guidance required to maximize the growth of their savings. Our service is exclusively devoted to helping federal employees increase their thrift retirement savings.

Our proprietary methodology is a rules-based system that uses technical analysis and statistical information from trading activity to forecast the price direction of the Thrift Savings Plan funds (G, F, C, S, and I Funds). Our track record speaks for itself!

Overall Performance of our TSP System

Since the inception of our service on January 1, 2005 to the end of 2022, if a member started with $100,000, his/her initial savings would have increased to $854,306 using our real-time trading returns. For the same time period, the buy-and-hold strategy of investing would have only increased to $282,556, while the G Fund increased only to $161,227. These results do not include any personal contributions during those 18 years, nor any contributions and profits made during year 2023. In addition, our returns are not compounded and are only based on arithmetic computations (i.e., summing profits and losses).


All trades adhere to the New Interfund Transfer Rule. The performance bar chart and table below display our overall results:

About Our Service

Our signals are tracked by TimerTrac.com, a leading third-party authoritative verifier of timing performance.

Our main goal is to maximize your TSP savings during bull market cycles and protect capital during potentially unstable market periods.

In addition to using technical analysis, we are now validating our interpretation by using a mechanical impulse system. The impulse system uses a combination of trend following and momentum, which maximizes gains when the market is trending. Become a member today to our valuable service and gain an understanding of the market in our very comprehensive newsletter.

Our proprietary methodology uses technical analysis and gathers statistical information from past trading activity. We then analyze this information contained in technical charts to forecast the price direction of the Thrift Savings Plan funds (G Fund, F Fund, C Fund, S Fund, and I Fund). Our number one goal is to produce results that consistently outperform the buy-and-hold strategy of investing. The buy-and-hold is not a smart way to invest, since it takes years to recover when the market crashes.

The two primary long term trends of the stock market are either a secular bull market or a secular bear market. Secular bull markets can sometimes last over twenty years. The most prosperous secular bull markets were from 1943-66 and 1983-2000. On the other hand, secular bear markets normally last between 10-14 years and sometimes longer. Viewing a twenty year chart of the S&P 500, note how the index was in a secular bear market from years 2000 to 2013. Within any secular market, there will be many bull and bear market cycles.

The latest bear cycle occurred when the S&P crashed over 57% in 2008. The market then experienced the next bull cycle beginning in March 2009. Our methodology and returns are independent of market conditions. Our track record shows a long-term consistency in outperforming the buy-and-hold strategy of both bullish and bearish cycles within secular 'long-term' bullish and bearish market environments. In all market conditions, it is essential that we trade our accounts so that: (1) we protect our capital during a crash within a bear cycle, and (2) continue to outperform the buy-and-hold strategy of investing in bullish and bearish cycles within secular bull and bear markets.

Reasons why it is imperative to trade the stock market as opposed to the buy-and-hold strategy can be viewed in a few charts which graphically show: (1) historical secular bull and bear markets of the Dow Jones Industrial Average, (2) secular markets explained by trends in the price/earnings ratios (P/E) of the S&P 500 Index, and (3) how just by using a simple price and moving average crossover technique applied to a bear and bull cycle of the S&P 500 Index will 'greatly' outperform the buy-and-hold strategy of investing.

Our proprietary methodology focuses on analyzing the most important technical elements to properly forecast market direction. In our analysis, we do not get stuck on silly things like Bollinger bands. We use all technical elements at our disposal, and focus on what consistently works in various market environments.
