Trading: Portfolio Review

Here it is again. Almost 4% up since inception compared to only 1% up in the KLSE. It’s important to realise that although a share may be good, businesses and companies suffer from cyclical ups and downs, so it’s just as important to study when to buy as well as what to buy. I said [...]

Trading: Bkawan

I just want to alert you to a magnificent breakout by one of the stocks in my portfolio today. Bkawan, being a good plantation stock, is enjoying some added liquidity from buyers flying into quality. If you’re a swing trader looking to make a quick buck over the next few days, I can’t think of [...]

Trading: Load of Bull..

The Edge posted yet another article today remarking at the KLSE’s 7 week-high here. The last time they did that it dropped 2 days later by almost 30 points. That was on 12 July when I remarked that the smart money was going to push the market just slightly above the shoulder level at 932. [...]

Yes, we know that Malaysia is a relatively rich and developed country. But prices always reflect opinions about the future, and the question I am asking is [...]

My Trading Philosophy

Since I’m still waiting for the market to shake itself out and hunting for clues as to where the sharks are hiding, I thought that I would just share with you some of my own philisophies of trading in the meantime. In particular, I will describe how I determine how much I want to trade.

For the FX Trader: Yahoo’s LOTF group

One of the reasons why I like trading FX is because it tends to trend for a lot longer than your usual equity, so there is usually a good direction to it. But it can be a killer because trades are denominated in 0.0001 increments, so one can easily be stopped or whipped out. Nonetheless, [...]

Portfolio Review:18-07-06

Tonite, my portfolio is up 2.82% versus -1.85% of the KLCI since its inception. I have only been 35%/64% invested in equity with the rest of it in cash and I’m now waiting for the market to make its next move whilst looking at what has been going on in the global markets, what with [...]
