About this blog

This blog was started as a whirlwind. So these objectives are laid out on the top as a reminder to me and for you to remind me. These objectives will change accordingly. Do praise or criticize me for keeping to my plan or deviating from it. This is the start of accountability to my plan.

There are Twitter updates, if you are my friend please identify yourself when you add to your follow list.

Long term objectives
1. To be financially independent so that I can free my time in devoting to God and Family.
2. Money is for memories. I want to take my Family to Disneyland in 2014. I want my daughters to remember this for life. I can also take this to my grave.
3. Trading as a vehicle to secure my daughters' future education requirement.
4. Continued learning/evolution of myself and the markets.
5. This is not for fun, it is a means for an end. Be very ruthless!

CL Trade 15 Sep

2216h EST lost 106 ticks on CL. I am looking what really went wrong with the setup. It seems like Range 13 on CL is too small because CL moves are quite large. Yesterday’s range was small and Range 13 worked well. Besides, I was complacent in my management of risk. I should have taken money off the table went I had the chance and re-enter if I’d believe it would go up. Stupid of me.

I searched for the next prime numbers and came up with 17, 19, 23 and 37. I have found that a larger frame would help see what would be the real trend. So 23 and 37 made better pictures.

It made the 88.6% retrace much clearly on the Range 23 chart. Meets my target at 61.8% extension which is also the 261.8% extension on the Range 37 chart.
