Yesterday was a great day, with excellent capabilities. Statistically, repetition is unlikely today.
Morning starts with balance. We are waiting for a breakdown. At the top is the range 1.45-1.457. Внизу, most likely bumpiness around 1.4345, filling the hole.
In an amicable way, the third entrance should not have been. Just couldn't resist potentially catching the high of the day (despite the unstable emotional state). Max Pein was -16%
Came out on zeros. On emotions, certainly. The situation was complicated by uncertainty and high volatility, usually inherent at the opening of the USA session.
I call this exit stop-loss.. Would he be `` tough '', I would have stayed in the minuses. And so in breakeven. That is, if something goes wrong, as I would like (Planned), then I'm looking for opportunities to get out well, and not just sit down hard.
At least, in general, it is not a success, but almost 10% today is good for me. By the way, found an error in the calculation of the results. Fixed.
Such are the results. This year we are expected 52 weeks. Excluding all holidays, I think about 40 will definitely be workers. This year should be highly productive! (:
Thoughts.
For those, who doesn't have access to Morgan Stanley, but I want to read the analyst, Роман represents : :))))
Where is this money?
According to ICI with 2007 years left the market 229 billion dollars. Truth, the flow of money to long-term mutual funds has increased slightly recently.
This is the cash flow for the last 4 weeks of december.
This is the cash flow from the beginning of the year to December.
This is cash flow from 2007 of the year, where you can see, what 229 billions went out of stocks and 486 billion went to bond funds.
It turns out, that the market in the states bounced off the bottom even without significantly raising that money, that the shares have gone.
And if this liquidity decides to enter stocks again ?
The week began with me as it is not very. Monday and Tuesday closed in the red, what is the market did not understand in these days, but on Wednesday and Thursday closed in positive territory and a normal week you will get the positive. The situation is similar in its trading account, of course there was more of a purely technical issue plan on my part, not used to the terminal and a couple of times the price stops mixed up, but still turned out week-zero. Friday was a holiday on the Stock Exchange what is a cdo tied to mortgages trader film news background corporation merry christmas richard dennis trading
Thesis.
Yesterday I listened to Bodo Schaefer's audio seminar again “The art of managing your time”. This time I made a lot of notes and conclusions for myself.. Interesting statistics are provided, how many years of his life a person spends on any action. For example, smokes, or watching TV. I watch TV very rarely, I do not smoke, but this was more than offset by reading useless garbage on the Internet, chewing a hundred times in the comments of one topic, and so on. Instead of smoking, the pauses were filled with tea and coffee, That, I decided to replace with more useful things. Actually, according to Schaefer, cases can be divided into 4 large spheres: BUT) Urgent and important, what has to do with taking fast, responsible decisions, for example in business, B) Unhurried, but important (actually, this is the sphere, dedicated to creativity, our purpose in life, in my opinion, this is the main area), C) Unimportant, but hasty action (then, what is being done in the current order – for example, utilities payments, taxes, machine repair, etc.) D) Time eaters (don't need to list). A task, define for yourself – in what area(Schaefer squared) have you been in the last week, outline things, which you really want to do, plan a typical daily routine for the year, 10-15 years (how would you like to see him). List of values in life, tasks for six months to a year, with the possibility of further development. Spheres – health, finance, relationship, emotions (in Kovalev it is even more developed.). Principle: I want it done. What I don't like so much, to delegate to do it to others (given that, that another will like it). To be -> make -> have.
six months later, I reread M. Douglas's The Disciplined Trader.. I wanted to look at my perception of this material through the prism of a slightly more experienced, than then.. реально, the only book, where there is almost no water and everything is on the case.. in Psychology – лучшее!
2nd of January – first working day of the new year.
Life is too short, to tell her about incomprehensible things :)
So we rested for a couple of days and to work!
Happy and profitable January everyone.
I hear, this year will be awesome!
Three days in a row, with rare interruptions. Already forty centimeters poured. The weather is so, how i love in winter – comfortably, minus 7-8 Degrees, really cloudy. Real new year :) but, did not want, to make it happen like three years ago, when it snowed so much, what's with the warming, cars got bogged down on the very thresholds in the melted “porridge”.
Ski (skating) the season is usually marked by unaccustomed legs. So this time. After the first ride, sealed everything, went again. Ride a few steps: A-a, painfully, go back, whatever? Not, continued the execution. Meters across 500-700 the pain is gone, and I even enjoyed communicating with the winter forest. Truth, took off the plasters at home – all ripped off, in blood, decided not to ride for a couple of days, to dry.
According to the diary. There were many questions in the comments of the post “life is like a game”. I began to guide him in an unfinished form. Put goals for the year in the beginning, and there are several super goals, the achievement of which is not feasible in the new year, but there is such an opportunity, big goals, medium and small. The latter must be performed in the current order., as a necessity, but important, to create the effect of translational movement. They can also serve as intermediate steps to completing larger tasks..
I am writing everything in a row: The weight, daily regime, what did you eat, What did you do, Read, Learned, learned new, income / expense ratio, etc. and so on. The main focus is on the completeness of the action and the final result.. Think, in a month or two I will have a workable system. Another important point – accustom yourself to journaling and tracking activities. Conducted research – it takes a person about 60 days (this is for example, the habit of running in the morning) The habit of drinking a glass of orange juice, about 20 days. But it takes several times less time to develop bad habits.. So the diary is also important for self-control., and its conduct, also a good habit :)
The goals are set, tasks defined, correct diary, with steps of success, заведен. Who will not comply – that sad loser who lost another year of his life :)
