Recent Update

Hi folks, I have been absent for a while as there are a number of projects I have recently embarked on and thus have yet to update anything in my blog.

Quick Update:

Monthly Forum

I am helping Optionetics Singapore to run the monthly online forum which should be every third Thursday of the month. Watch out for an e-mail blast from Optionetics Singapore two weeks before the forum. If you are not on the list, please send an e-mail to classes@optionetics.com.sg or classes@optionetics.com.hk. Of course, I will post the information regularly on my Facebook. Keep a look out of that.

What has been discussed since Feb are:

1. Creating a business plan and trading psychology
2. Identifying Trading Opportunities using seasonal patterns
3. Identifying Trading Opportunities using sector rotation concepts
4. Identifying Trading Opportunities using Profitsource as a tool

The last forum was in particular interesting because it unlocks many folks' limiting belief that they are not able to trade Wave 3 because many instructors have told them this is not possible. Well, I have already demonstrated in my forum how to look for Wave 3's price target and created a few a-ha to the folks. Well, I promise to the folks that in the future runs, I am going to do more on Fibo time analysis and right now, I am running practical test intensively to train myself to identify Gartley Pattern. Why is this important? We are in the trending market and therefore, these stuffs become important in my trading toolbox.

Advanced Coaching Online Classes

For advanced Optionetics students who recently did ICT, ITT and Master ICT Classes in Singapore and Hong Kong, you will have the opportunities to meet with me online three times starting from next Thurs to refresh what we have learnt in these classes. They are only open to a privileged group of students who have committed to advance their education. It's also a gesture from my viewpoint to express my gratitude to these students who allow me to share my experience with them. The class will be 1.5 hours and will be in the usual "trading out loud" format. So, there won't be any slides or presentations. We go straight to analyse and discuss real trades for education purposes. Honestly I am looking forward to it.

Forex Education

While I told myself my R&D budget for 2009 will be frozen, I decided to invest in two forex courses to continue to enhance my knowledge.

1) OU Forex

I have signed up for OU Forex with a view to getting another perspective of forex trading. I must say that there are lots of materials to read everyday. In fact, it's a standard for me to spend at least an hour every morning to go through the new stuff and market analysis. Over the weekend, or on my off days, I will have to catch up with the daily webinar by Forex Joe and Sunil. Oh well, I have learnt a lot because Sunil has discussed how to use FIbonacci as a trading rule and of course, he shared with us his specialty - Harmonic Pattern. This impresses me a lot. The exclusive forum also contains very rich information from traders from different part of the world.

2) Forex Nitty Gritty

Again, I signed up for this because the fee is pretty cheap, and it happens to provide me with a very simple trading method which compliments with FXTE's momentum trading system. I am not able to share with the simple method is from FNG. However, I will say this it is a fairly simple method, and if one is correct in the fundamental outlook - e.g. Bearish on USD or JPY, he can start using the simple method to profit from the market. Incidentally, I started with FNG's simple method this Monday (well, because I am not a FX newbie), and the trades I put just on Monday has already covered me 10 months' of FNG"s subscription. It's awesome.

What else am I doing?

Nothing much really. There won't be any workshops or coaching to do at AKLTG until July. Also, I am not going to OASIS at Santa Clara this year for personal reasons. So, it is a good time for me to rest my body because July will be a crazy month in view that Wealth Academy 18 and Patterns of Excellence Whoosh 28 (Mod 1) are coming.

Till then, take care.
