Dead whale walking

Yes.....guessed from the above you can summed up what were achieved this year.
For all the different forms of so-called investment from toto, 4D, stocks and forex.....goner! Maybe 4D was okay becoz I managed to wake up and realised that luck was on my side therefore I managed to slow it down to a crawl hehe.
So....this baby whale didn't managed to swim out to the open ocean but just managed to swim around the bay but still managed to get "screwed-up" by the many traps of life.
So....good-bye 2010.

Up-date

haha....June started very well for me but mid-way thru, run into self doubt and end-up "screw-up" esp for stocks. For forex not so bad....in the end I am still up but not up to my standard and expectation.

Now...july, the stock market suddenly wake up again. frankly no idea whether this is a dead cat or mouse bounce or the real thing. Still since it is up....my portfolio is looking better. Which is a good thing...esp to me.

Stock market up-date

For Yangzijiang...I managed to make about 7K but then the winning just cannot cover for the losses of SMIC.

Still lucky to be able to make some money lor....sighed!

Just don't want to think too much about the losses if not...then I will feel very depressed about the whole thing esp that I would have made some profits when it shot up to HKD1.02 on last Thursday...I turned greedy, very greedy!

Now I am paying the price for my greed lor!

This week's stock up-date

Yes...this is also a shitty week for my stock trading thingy, losses upon losses!

Maybe it's time to "hang up" this thought of being a day or swing trader thingy and just stick to my day job.

The losses...I can do without and used the money for tours for the family or just keep it for raining days. Yes....can see the raining days coming soon! WFT!

weekend up-date

No luck for my 4D...sighed but anyway I have already toned down a lot which is good too.

Working OT on Sunday....half day only to cover for my counter-part. Also give me a chance to meet up with the "C" team optrs/leads so that to clear-up the rumor about me getting the pink slip.

Oh...btw, the latest report was that the plant will continue till at least Dec 2010.
So....I maybe still be around for sometime which is good too. No need to worry too soon about getting a job. Just want to stay positive as much as possible!

Stock Market - may want to down-size my holding for SMIC to a manageable level. Now just too much and too high a risk since it is like putting my eggs into one basket.
With so much happening around...that may not be a great idea esp with the markets looking "toppish" and almost everyone wanting to jump in without fear. This is a time for me to fear, not good to be greedy!

One thing I learn about LIFE.....always good idea to live and fight another day. And as long as one is healthy and have "capital" there will always be better opportunities down the road.

SMIC up-date

Noticed that whenever the HK index raised this stock would traded side way or with a downward bias. The greater the index points increased....the worst is for this stock.
Then....it "hit" me to realise that this stock is still consider a "penny stock" or
3rd-liner stock. And the present theme in HK is to play the top-liners which is reflected by the index raise. On Wed and Fri, the HK index shot-up by over 300+ points and on both days....this SMIC went "south" towards the close on smaller volume. But on Thu, when the index was down....this stock was quite steady and in fact closed up with good volume too.

I shall keep this observation for next week....esp this stock.
