Does TSP use Day X's Closing price when selling the I Fund and buying the F Fund? YES
Or does TSP use Day X's Opening price when selling the I Fund and buying the F Fund? NO
Or does TSP use the Current Price at the time I request the IFT? Like selling I Fund and buying the F Fund using both fund's current price at 10:38AM on Day X? NO

In 2018, I plan on mimicking my TSP interfund transfers within my portfolio by trading equivalent ETF's. The question that I have concerns the COB aspect of an IFT.
According to the TSP web site, when I request an IFT before Noon on Day X, the transfer will be processed at COB. So, for example, if I transfer from I Fund to F Fund before Noon on Day X, by COB on Day X, I will be 100% F Fund.
My question is, at what price does the TSP sell I Fund and buy F Fund on Day X?
Does TSP use Day X's Closing price when selling the I Fund and buying the F Fund?
Or does TSP use Day X's Opening price when selling the I Fund and buying the F Fund?
Or does TSP use the Current Price at the time I request the IFT? Like selling I Fund and buying the F Fund using both fund's current price at 10:38AM on Day X?
I'm asking because I want to be as accurate as possible when mimicking my TSP strategy to my ETF strategy.
When requesting an IFT before Noon on Day X, should I sell EFA (I Fund) and then buy AGG (F Fund) on the morning of Day X? Just before market close on Day X? Or at the same time as the IFT at 10:38AM on Day X?
Thanks in advance.

Thank you mike I most certainly appreciate your advice. I figure since I'm 26 I might as well try to be a aggressive as I can now.

Hi Anthony, sounds like you've received some excellent advice for your distribution. Some might say to keep some in G and F but since you're young, I think it's smart to go all equity funds (C, S, I). I think I'd even the C and S out a bit but I still think you're fine where you're at. I'm 45 and still in all equities.If you prefer not to have any money in G or F, don't do the L funds. They all have a certain percentage of G and F, with the L2050 having less (but still a combined 16% G/F). It's all about how much risk you're willing to take. Some people are very risk averse and keep everything in G, which works for them. On the other side, many of us prefer to be all equities to maximize gains. Sure the market will drop sometimes and it sucks to see your account value drop, but it eventually rebounds. The value of your account drops, but your #shares will not drop. Don't panic and don't sell during a downturn! That's when people lose out by selling their shares at a much lower price than they bought them for. You just have to stay the course and enjoy the cheap shares you're buying while the market is down. Speaking of that, do you have your current distribution the same as your contribution allocations?MikeOn Fri, Dec 29, 2017 at 11:01 AM, antjones6691@yahoo.com [TSP_Strategy] <TSP_Strategy@yahoogroups.com> wrote:Hello everyone,
First I would like to thank everyone for accepting me into this amazing group. I'm a young SGT who's only had a TSP for 6 years now but until recently only had my money in the G fund with hardly any gains. Until maybe 3 months ago I have been more active with my TSP account with getting the some advise from my higher ups and now moving money in to different funds . I currently have 50% in C fund 25% in S fund and 25% in I fund. My question is should I keep it this way for now or completely switch it to the S fund or the I fund ?
Thank you ,
Anthony
