International daily

To say that the International index has me confused is putting it lighty. These are just some fo the things that make me sctratch my head. Ok, what we have here is confusing reports coming out from various sources and I’m not to sure what to think. The first example, goes like this. If there is a blue box the price reported by TSP is inline with the action on the stock market. Meaning if the International index went up or down, the TSP reported price for the I-fund did the same. If you see a green or red box, it did the opposite. 

 

So the last 3 days, the I-fund has done the opposite of what the International Index has done on the market. I totally expected the I-fund to have a losing day today with the TSP share reporting price, but yet it reported a gain. What the hell is that? This is a new phenomenon. I’m not getting it. 

 

It’s not just the the TSP people either. This is my TD Ameritrade reporting software that I use for all my charts. Today it report and gain of .03% in the daily price. Ok, so maybe the TSP people are right. But wait I’ve got more. 

 

The APP on my Iphone that I use to access my TD Ameritrade account is showing the International index down 1% today. WTH ???

 

Yahoo.com on their Financial page is also reporting a gain, but look at the physical chart. It’s down. To me the only thing that makes sense is that the EFA went EX-divedend today or yesterday, or the day before. Ok, what I have to show you is what my charts are saying now as of the close today. Let’s look at the daily chart below for the International index.

 

Price on the chart closed below my sell CBL. Price also closed below the 50 day moving average. This is an outright sell signal. So tomorrow, if price does not recover back above the 50 day moving average, the I-fund daily will be a sell. I estimate that price has to close above $57.73 by 4pm tomorrow in order to cancel this sell signal.
