Exited Trade At 2285 - A Roller Coaster Ride


Date of exit : 30 April 2013
Title : Exited Trade At 2285 - A Roller Coaster Ride
I manged to exit my position by shorting at 2285 for a loss of 13 points. The exit should be much higher but one mistake lead to another till now. This is the price I have to pay for not acting fast and decisive. 

The Loss : RM325 (13points x RM25 x 1contract = RM325) 


The balance is now RM 27,300 (RM 27,625 - RM 325 = RM 27,300)
(The details of my account is at My Future Trading Account Records 2012 )


Date of entry : 24 April 2013
Title : Do What I have To Do : Reversed To Long CPO
I reversed to long CPO July 2013 Future Contract at 2296 for one contract. You can imagine the state of mind I am in now. Sideways market is a storm for a trend trader like me.

  1. hi fren, just wan to share with you. my opinion it is ok LONG but at 2296 i think it a bit late, i suggest 2289 is ideal entry i guess. but in overall major is still bearish toward 2000, if im in your position im looking at 2329 to close those position. Good Luck fren :-)

  3. In case you are wondering. I have been waiting for the 'right' time to exit but the market keep pushing lower. I was ready to get out any time soon. This is one of the worst torturing trade I ever encounter. I just have to live with it.
