My point for Ed's consideration was, there are a lot of options for TSP investors between "set-and-forget" S or G Funds and the L Funds. Finding the right portfolio and strategy that meets his expectations and comfort level is worth exploring.
I think watching TSP funds closely should be followed closely by making moderate adjustments when necessary.
It seems to me that making 100% moves in the middle of a trading day relies too much on market timing for when to get in or out. One day either way can make several percentage points difference... and that could be in the wrong direction if you're not lucky!
Regarding the "all your eggs in one basket" quote, it appears that either Mark Twain or Andrew Carnegie were quoted much earlier than either Warren Buffet or Bill O'Niel. Regardless, it's an interesting approach for some to consider. It's just not the right one for me.

The L funds are "set and forget." The others are not. One should not be making short term moves with the TSP for at least two reasons. (1) The TSP has restrictions on the number of transfers....so you might end up stuck in an unwanted allocation, (2) You must buy/sell by noon, and will receive the end of day price which may be quite different.
