Losing trade.

The order was made because it is downward trend as show and expecting to go lower. It is a wrong decision as I did not realise it is testing the support level of 2255. The order is make when my mind is unclear with my work and had multiple though of cancel the order but force to make the order because of yesterday experience.

Introduction for The Blog


This blog is written to record down my own the trading of Crude Palm Oil Futures (FCPO) in Bursa Malaysia. As in my other blog IVKLS I am a strong believer of value investing (long term) which is more focus on fundamental analysis. I start investing in Bursa Malaysia  Stocks since 2014 by only investing in value and dividend paying stock.

Since last year (year 2019), I willing to take out some of my money to try on trading (short term), many researches had been done since then. Initially, I though trading is about technical analysis (charting) however “The Disciplined Trader” and “Trading in the Zone” by Mark Douglas had changed my view completely. Trading is all about human emotion or trading psychology. Anything can happen in the market and no one can be 100% right.

Five Fundamental Truths of Trading by Mark Douglas:
1) Anything can happen
2) You don’t  need to know what is going to happen next in order to make money
3) There is a random distribution between wins and losses for any given set of variables that define an edge.
4) An edge is nothing more than an indication of higher probability of one thing happening over another
5) Every moment in the market is unique

Other books which I would like to introduce to my viewer is Market Wizards by Jack D.Schwager.

After a year of studies about trading and trading simulation account, I had decided to open a futures trading account on Valentine day 2020 (14th February 2020) and start trading FCPO since then. I had make some money in future trading but I realise that to improve my trading skill I need to record down my trade.

Hence this blog is born.
