Shorted Price: 2305
Volume: 1 contract
Initial Stop Loss: 2341 (6 points above today's high)
Reason To Long:

2) 4 hour Stochastic is still in the down trend
3) Price close almost at the low forming a bearing candle stick pattern
Comment:
The market has been quiet. It was in consolidation for more than a week. Whichever way the market break, it will go a long way. (In this case, I hope it is down).

Date: 2 Sept 2009 (Day 2: Close Trade)
Action: Long To Close CPO Future Nov 2009 Contract
Long Price: 2237

Profit: RM 1650 ( 2305 - 2237 - 2 = 66 points )
Reason Of Long To Close Position:
1) 4 hourly Stochastic turned up from oversold area
2) 3 continous black candles appeared. The very next bar has high chance of turning white (bullish candle)
Note:
1. One points of CPO Future = RM 25
2. Commission needed for buy and sell is RM50 so we need 2 points to break even
3. Margin (Minimum Deposit for holding overnight) = RM 8000
