September 28, 2010 Update

The Conference Board’s sentiment index a.k.a. US Consumer Confidence declined in September to 48.5 and is the weakest level since February 2010. Poor outlook for jobs and wages cause the American consumers to lose confidence in September. Mounting foreclosures, unemployment, lack of confidence will depress the housing market for the rest of the year. Guess what, things are looking pretty bad right now until the next new release.

Remember to take all the fundamental news with a grain of salt as these factors are only for long term trading. It will only take one good new to change the momentum in currency trading; hence, prepare to switch your hat at moment notice. If you are trading on the fundamental, stick to it. As for the technical and the chartists, look at your charts and don’t follow the news. As for me, I follow the news to observe the bigger picture, but I let my automated trading systems take care of the trades. I should stop here as I am seeing double words and letters. The Neo Citran night time is kicking in. Attached is the screen capture of Jasmine’s account. We have three open buy trades with floating profits of $405 and our present equity is $15,360.

Gentlemen, I hope that everyone is well. If you have been keeping up with my trading systems, you would notice that Jasmine is attempting to break $5,500 profit barrier and Leah broke the $4,000 profit barrier today. Attached is a snap shot of Leah’s account with 4 EURUSD sell trades with $74 floating profit. As a reminder, 1 pip = $1 for mini account trading.

The MQL5 automated trading championship 2010 competition will commence on October 4th and will end on December 24th 2010. I am not participating in the competition because I don’t think that it is safe to submit my codes. Let’s see how my five software compared to the champion in terms of pips gain. As you are aware, I am not a big fan of compounding returns. I have done it here where I took $500 and turn it into $46.9 trillion after 33,648 trades. It is not real as I have not seen a forex trader who started with $500 and is richer than Warren Buffett.

I understand that it is boring to target only 35% return per year. Making money should be boring. If it is too exciting, it is gambling and not trading.

As a reminder to the new followers, there is a quick reference guide to the five trading system.

Haley trades GBPUSD, max 6 trades, max SL 120 pips, max TP 280 pips
Jasmine trades EURUSD, max 6 trades, max SL 100 pips, max TP 260 pips
Leah trades EURUSD, max 7 trades, max SL 100 pips, max TP 240 pips
Mellisa trades USDCHF, max 10 trades, max SL 120 pips, max TP 260 pips
Sienna trades EURUSD, max 8 trades, max SL 120 pips, max TP 280 pips

It is rather uncanny that Jasmine trading system is on fire. It is attempting to break the +6,000 pips profit. First it was the stock market bubble, then came the real estate bubble, and now Jasmine trading system is rising without any retracement. Words of warning, what goes up quickly will also go down quick. My target is only 35% per annum and anything beyond that is a bonus. Don’t expect Jasmine to go up forever without going through some drawdown in the future.

Trade with wisdoms.

Recent survey estimated that North American has approximately 3.1 millionaires worth $10,700 billion while Asia Pacific and Europe have 3 millionaires worth $19,200 billion. Millionaires are defined as people with net financial wealth of more than one million, excluding their primary residence. Source: A&A Economic Digest, October 2010. I guess that North America is still the best place to live the American dream.

Let’s get back to our trading system Leah. After a long runs up in the EURUSD, it is going through some retracement at the moment. Leah currently has six open trades: two sell and four buy with a maximum stop loss of 100 pips and a maximum take profit of 240 pips. Within the last four months, Leah has surpassed its target of 35% per annum. Leah’s current profit is at 37.8% with 122 floating pips.

October 5, 2010 Update

What else is new? Japan’s central bank has trimmed its interest rates to “near-zero” i.e. between 0% and 0.1% to stimulate the country economy. The IMF worries over the fragile global financial system. The jobs market is slow.

It is funny how you read the head lines. In one day, you get all the bad news, and it does not matter where you read. The next day some good news comes out, and the market rejoices. A good analogy of the market is a baby. A baby cries but he is instantaneously happy when you give him a bottle or pick him up. Are the speculators like babies? Give them one piece of good news, they will drive the market up regardless of previous bad news. I never understood fundamental trading; hence, I will stick to technical trading where I excel.

First it was Jasmine breaking the $5,000 profit and now Leah is on its way. Leah’s account balance stands at $14,172 with $620 floating profit, see attached chart. I like expert advisors because they are not trading signals. They are actual trades, which are not open for interpretation. I understand that some of you don’t want to give up the adrenaline rush of trading. My suggestion is to have two trading accounts: one for automated trading and one for manual trading. This way you can have your cake and eat it too.

Leah has been doing phenomenon during the past few weeks. Looking at Leah’s last seven trades, we got six winners and one loser. All of the six winning trades were buy trades and the one losing trade was a sell trade. Jasmine and Leah are trending systems; hence, when there is a continuous raise or fall in the EURUSD, these two systems tend to do extremely well. The total gain for the last seven trades was $1,224 or 1,224 pips, see attached chart. Don’t expect this type of return every month as the market does not trend up every month. Learn to budget and save some pips for the raining months.

Today Canada joined the rest of the world in stating that the yuan is under value. Basically, China is keeping its currency artificially low in order to aids its exporters. In August of this year, China’s trade surplus reached in access of $20 billion, a bit lower than its July surplus of $29 billion. This trade surplus is not something new. The US began running a trade surplus with China since 1985. The nation with trade surplus tends to have a saving surplus; hence, there are a lot of Chinese billionaires. In recent weeks both US and Europe have criticized Chinas over its undervalued yuan.

This reminds me of 16th century, where China’s role in the global economy led to the influx of massive amounts of silver from the new world. Back then Europeans bought Chinese goods with silver and much of its originated from the mines of Spanish America. The British wanted to expand trading relation and wanted to use something else beside silver that they could trade for Chinese goods. Opium was the solution and the British was successful in reversing the flow of silver from China. Opium was the silver bullet back then. Do you want to guess on the next silver bullet that is going to bring the down the Chinese economy? 100 points will be rewarded to Gryffindor if you are able to identify the solution.

Enough of the trivia as it will not pay for our new Lexus. Let’s look at Jasmine trading systems. Since May 21, 2010, it made over 400 trades. Roughly, 210 trades were long trades, and 195 trades were short trades. Our system is well balanced as it has a similar number of buy and sell trades. We started our account with $10,000, and today it is at $16,322 trading one mini lot, see attached chart. This is 60% return in four and a half month, see attached chart. When someone makes 20 - 30 trades and is still profitable, he may be lucky. It takes skills and a trading edge to be profitable after 400 trades. There is no secret to our success: our maximum stop loss is 100 pips and our maximum take profit is 260 pips. Repetition is the mother learning: cutting your losses short and letting your profits run.

October 10, 2010 Update

If you are living in the US, your Thanksgiving Day is in November. In Canada, we celebrate our Thanksgiving in October. Canada is geographically further north than the US; hence, our harvest season arrives earlier than the American harvest season. Previously, we celebrated our Thanksgiving in either late October or early November, but it was moved to the second Monday in October to avoid having Thanksgiving and Remembrance Day (November 11) in the same week. Even though Thanksgiving was declared a national holiday in 1879, it was moved for convenience. Life is all about convenience. For those of you that are still hanging onto your trading indicators, sooner or later, you will move toward expert advisors because of convenience. Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated.

If you don’t see the benefits of expert advisors, you will never use them. Let’s have a look at our Jasmine trading system. We are six open EURUSD buy trades with 146 pips floating profits, see attached chart. Four and a half month ago, we started our account with $10,000, and we now stand at $16,067, a 60% gain. This is 6,000 pips gain, and if it were compounded, it would make a world of different in our results. As you're aware, I am not a big fan of compounding; hence, we will continue our fixed lot trading.

Wishing everyone a Thanksgiving filled with joys, warmth, and happiness.
