Time Out
-
Hi all,
My portfolio has been on the decline for about the past 2 weeks now, and it doesn't seem to be slowing up! It has dropped 2.5%.
Seeing the red most days really annoys me, however I have faith in FI and really hope my players will rise soon.
Curious to know, has anyone ever used the timeout feature as a means of not checking your portfolio for a period of time?
Thanks,
Tom : )

@TomIrving yeah I’ve used it before, only ever needed it for 24/48hrs, but it did the job. Basically you just can’t log into your profile. You can still access the site and check player prices, just can’t log in and trade

I'm currently on day 6 of a week long time out and it's been great.
My portfolio was down 4% over the 2 weeks before I timed out, and like you I know it's still been dropping but haven't been able to see it so I've been nice and relaxed - what you don't know can't hurt you 😀.
I'll have a little restructure on the 10th when my profile becomes active again but then I'll probably take a month time out after that.
Back to long term investing for me

@ScouseSte I didn't decide to take a time out but feeling good about FI right now. Think after the international break there'll be another upturn.
However I think I will take a break during my hols in october 👍
Glad it's going well for you though.
