With the market being so volatile right now what mutual funds are you buying and selling for your roth IRA and do you think this is a great time to invest or not?

Depends what for. Generally I don't try to time the market, and I don't recommend it unless it is "fun" money. But as an abstract question, I think the market is probably going to fall a bit further in the next 3-4 months before any substantial recovery. That said, I am currently and will be funding retirement investments on a weekly basis throughout the year (and onward). I use Scott Burns' Ten-Speed Portfolio invested through Vanguard (see assetbuilder.com, click on Couch Potato information).
