Hi neils,
already posted the jap figs thingy.
The Eu ministers still trying to get to grips to handle their job.
I guess we need sit and wait. Unless markets have they own fancy.

And regards to mr Kahn, we'll just have to let his truth come to surface. Not try jump to conclusions, his case may be deeper than what had surfaced. So we just sit and wait the peeps get to the bottom of things. But no need hold breath. No one in the world is indespensible. If things work badly , i9 guess new champions will come on stream.

must learn depend on self, on own mind.
But good peeps will help where they can.

Trade nimble.
Listening to me is no good now. I have biased long term positions.
may work out, not know yet.
Like i said is not pro trading. Becoming rigid due to mindset and disorientation.
But i have little options, either cut and go sleep or hold and wait ground fundementals normallise.
Only consolation is mostly cash positions, so have much leeway for unfortunate things.
maybe all the pump tweaking making me very hard in the arteries.

But God is very kind to me.
Feeling more and more capable now. Lets see if i can slowly ease back to my naughty self.

regards

This could also be good lesson, when mindset is pressured, cheaper have a holiday?

in fact i borrowing all the yen and buy everything else.
the euro investment thus far is bad, worst is the usd.
The swaps are still cheap, so is not much concerns there.
But over time, I am depreciating.

i not sure,
but bundes monetary seems beckbone holding things together.
This Euro dreams had made europe more accessible to each other.
but being different sovereigns with different political structures makes for very hard to manage the one currency. This from a traders perspective. On the ground, i hear that, most liking the borderless world. I guess, the question is can this that the people so like, be held in place , if their currencies were divorced again. Its a politics thingy and people's livelihoods. These is difficult to judge from a traders persepective.

from traders perspective again, seems china also become part of euro. Their partipation in buying up much debt, makes them vested interest in europe,for now is mostly greek. But they different country. So can this be made prototype model? Can think? But problems will arrise if the political status quo changes. Its a matter of managing that.

They are (French and Italy) talking about passport control again on their borders, so it is not so clear now. Without Germany, they all in trouble!

Hi Jaro,

but that passport thingy is not related to financial crisis at all.
It's the problem that there are very strong streams of refugees comeing from Africa via Italy, France and Greece into the EU.
So they try get to control on that flows somehow ....

Gro,
Is not sinking all into the trade and having adequate contingencies, that allow you to restrategise to meet with changing conditions and fortunes. You pray very hard that you do not reach the end of the line in resources for contingencies. If that happens then you will be fighting "death battle". In speculative trading activities, what i had seen is the inexperienced have tendency to come to this state of affairs. And is normally what takes them out. The availability of high leverage is often abiused leading them to the cliff. Having said that, I do realise that no one has unlimited resource, so ability to manage resources with the correct mindset, is paramount for survival.

But do not misunderstand that death battles will not occur. Every once in a while , a trader will be tested to standard deviations way off the mean. But if a trader goes into such state too often , then its clearly mismanagement of resources.

Like for thios example , if not that i moved all activities to cash(except for the ongoing experiment), Probably would had sunk. And even with this privilage, i am down for close to 8 to 9 % of personal NTA. In fact being in retirement i didn't want take unecessary risk other than the experimentation. But the event in Hinon caught me by the balls and dragged me in.

I can sight that this is due to rigidity brought about due to my health and other circumstance.
But that does nothing for the book, and is only unprofessional excuses.( so ultimately the excuse is rigidity in bias and greed, of course having the resources makes for the adventure)

Yes, Niels I understand that at the moment they are worried about refugees, but it is step backwards from their previous position. I know that Union has rules that allow that kind of move for willing. You right passport thingy is not related to financial crisis in some countries.

I am still quite strong chess player, one of best traders now on my faculty's competition and also one of best players of taekwondo in my country. I think good results are mostly habit and attitude.

They changing the guards in Sg.

Might as well.
The whole Sg community owes Mr KY Lee so much.
It was great watch his dynamics and charisma in molding SG for so many years.
Took a resourceless little island and made it 1st world city state.

I heard when i was having my pump fixed, he was doing same nearby.
But he's made great accomplishments in his task as well as family life.
Unfortunately for me only in career, my castle fell.

So now is the time for...

MM Lee have done a lot for SG and much like what u have done and share for in TAF... Guess it time for the new guard to show what the are capable for... Onward & Forward

P.S. Did u come back to vote?

vote? i still cannot travel, even for short distances. I went to nearby shops and, thanks to God some good samaratans ended up driving me home.
Lets see, if my body is going get as strong as my mind. The problem is i mostly feel fine except for chest discomfort. Then sudden lost of energy and colapses. In fact they keep warning me not hitmy head on anything. I keep rying figure out how not to do that excpt to keep staying in bed. But staying in bed is really pain in the .......... for me. In fact the staying in bed is causing me extream time disorientation.

And you're right, that everything else would I write, are unprofessional excuses.
