September 2018 Review

So it is this time of the month again September seems to pass in a blink, mainly because I am working It is clear that this month I have not achieve much, so I will just briefly talk about a bit of everything I guess 1.) Meditation - Nope, but mainly because I am living with my relatives (excuses) - Okay, I AIM to do it everyday next month alright ? since I will be moving out tomorrow 2.) Trading - Positive, but the goal of breaking even seems so far fetched now - AT least I realize my mistake this year : Position sizing + emotional trade - I also construct a table to calculate all the probability and risk reward of various setups during sentiment uptrend and downtrend (took me a whole day to write the formula T.T) *with a bit of Sook Leng's help 3.) Books - Almost finish the book "Trading for a Living" by Elder Alexander, it is one of the best book I have read that covered almost everything 4.) Exercise - I have been running on treadmill after working -...

First Working Month in Penang

哈罗,今天是 Nine Eleven 11/9 虽然是打算在月尾才上传这个帖子,但是以防我脑塞忘了发生的事情还是每天写一点好了 人生第一份打的工,也是我一直以来想做的职业,Bursa Stocks Trader 因为在大学时期已经开始学一点股票的知识,所以就比较向往这方面的工作 加上是 Profit Sharing,我的薪水是和我的努力/成绩 成正比(with a factor of 0.2,因为我只抽20%,表现越好就抽越多) 记得我来面试的时候,第一印象就是 这公司面海耶,好开心 然后到了我工作的五楼,出电梯就看到一堆 uncles 坐在 screen 前面聊天 lol 所以这里也是散户 lepak 的地方 我们 Trader (其实是叫 IVT Dealer,可是工作性质是 Trader 啦) 是有自己 Team 的房间啦 面试时,老板直接用华语开场,有点吓到我,聊聊了几下我对股票的热枕就被录取了,害我以为自己的履历很厉害 第一天上班,Login 不到我的 email,我的 TC Pro 的密码和用户名字都在里面 lol 反正过后叫 IT 的人来搞搞下就 login 到了,好在市场没有很好,就没有错过什么 老板把我交给了我隔壁的 Mr Chin,现在算是教我 Tape Reading 的师傅 老实说 Tape Reading 这种东西还蛮靠经验的,所以很多东西还是要自己判断,尤其是卖出价 好啦,来说说工作环境和 culture 第一,福建话盛行啊 几乎上至大老板,下至扫地佬都说福建话,让我完全有 Speak Hokkien or Have no Friends 的感觉 由于同事间都用福建话沟通,难以避免的我是有被忽略的时候 好在本人内心本来就蛮强大的,加上我根本就是来挣钱的,所以就没有在意很多 但是同事们都是超热心的,大家都很好人地有三不五时来捞我说说话 让我有点下定决心要学好我的福建语,但是还是慢慢来呗 >.< 第二,我好像进了男校 因为我的 Team 都是男生的关系,然后我们 Traders 又是在一个房间里(需要access cards),就会发生一些奇怪的事情 比方说大家都在 office 换衣服,我前面那位每天早上还换裤子 Mr Chin 如果有去 gym 的话, 在 4:50 ...

Rock Bottom

Hitting rock bottom feels horrible. It is painful and humiliating. You hit it when you lose money you cannot afford to lose. You hit it when you gamble away your savings. You hit it after you tell your friends how smart you are and later to ask them for a loan. You hit rock bottom when the market come roaring at you and yells:"You fool !" Some people hit rock bottom after only a few weeks of  trading. Others keep adding money to their account to postpone the day of reckoning. It hurts to see a loser in the mirror. We spend our lifetimes building up self-esteem. Most of us have a high opinion of ourselves. It hurts a smart and successful person to hit rock bottom. Your first impulse may be to hide, but remember you are not alone. Almost every trader has been there. Most people who hit rock bottom die as traders. They slink away from the market and never look back. Brokerage records indicate that 90 out of 100 people trading today will probably be gone from the market a y...

流的不是泪,是感动 :') (8)

我读过的华文小说并不多,因为我自15~16 岁就开始为了学英文而读英文书 但是把我弄哭的华语小说远远多过英文小说,想必是用华语更能体会小说里人物的心境与感受 很短暂的说一遍 这些年,二哥哥很想你 我家养过两只狗,现在的 Bobby 还建在 (身在 Penang 我想他了) 以前有一只西斯狗名为 JJ 他是一只脾气不怎么好的狗 (毕竟是杂交场出生) 以前在旧家并不是很安全的一个地区,我老爸每早会开着门把工作用的工具搬上罗里 JJ 很喜欢趁这时候溜出去,所以我们老是叮咛老爸不要把门开着 偏偏老爸就是一个超粗人,没什么把我们的话听进去 所以就这么有一天,JJ 失踪了 那时我应该是 Form 2~3 可能是有过那次的经历吧 读着九把刀的 “这些年,二哥哥很想你”,读到他的狗在他不在时离开狗世,有点感同身受,或者是很心痛 JJ 离开我们时(极度合理怀疑是被拐走了) 一定经历过惊慌失措,我们什么也做不到 只能偶尔在回想时刻,懊悔自己的无能为力 记得那时我读着这本书时,我是关着房门在床上哭的 :3 (不好意思啊) ----------------------------------我是分割线------------------------------- 看完《斷背山》的隔天,原本中午就要回彰化,但難得約會,我跟女孩又多看了一場電影。看電影時我將手機關機。卻不知怎地,整個看電影的過程中我都心神不寧,身體怪怪的,有種快要感冒了的病感。 搭火車回彰化的途中,我才想起要將手機打開。 等待我的,是爸爸的留言。 我在火車上大哭。 Puma走了。 奶奶牽著Puma在巷子裡散步,突然Puma不走了,全身發抖。 最後是媽媽抱著牠,讓一直等不到二哥哥回家的Puma慢慢闔上眼睛。 回到沒有鈴鐺聲的家。 Puma被媽媽用粉紅色的大毛巾包著,那是牠洗完澡後專用的大毛巾。 牠的樣子不只安祥,還很可愛。 Puma的舌頭一如往常露在嘴巴外面半截,好像在笑。 我抱著牠一直哭一直道歉。 十幾年來我一直在Puma耳邊說:「Puma,你死掉的時候,二哥哥一定會在旁邊陪你喔,不會讓你害怕……不過你要努力等二哥哥回家喔!」之類的話都做不到。 我知道你有一天一定會死,但我...

A random talk of my life

Apparently some of my form 6 friends are having a video call session later I am kinda sleepy now, probably because I traveled to Gurney Plaza just now to survey the neibourhood as I am going to live around there soon To be honest I am rather excited about living out by myself as it means FREEDOMMMMMM to an extent la I don't mean that I get no freedom back in KL, in fact I am barely restricted from doing anything lol But I am free from some of the problems now at least The reason I am writing this post is because.... The way I blog is like this, I aim to update my blog at least twice a week during weekend However, sometimes I get busy, lazy, or just plain tired like now So, I try to write more when I am free and save them as draft, when I got no time to write, I will use those in my reserve haha Currently I have only one that I plan to publish at the end of the month Some of the posts I write actually require a lot of brain power, especially those about my opinions on ce...

Trading/Investing Books Summary (1)

Hi guys, I am thinking of starting a new series about trading/investment here I will be sharing the extract that I find useful when reading any trading/investing related books or articles It will be a prudent time to kickstart this series as it will refresh my memory about the excellent points I read before, as I just started my first job as a day trader in Affin Hwang Capital. Also because "The Monk" series is ending sooner or later, therefore this shall serve as the successor of the series ? XD For the first post of this series, maybe I will just share some advice that I think is useful in making money in Malaysia stock market. 1.) Adjust your risk and expectation on return based on market condition. 2.) ALWAYS PLAN before you trade, if you didn't plan yesterday, DON'T TRADE today 3.) DON'T DO STUPID THINGS aka buy impulsively 4.) Strict cut loss (I always cut) 5.) Equate your risk across trades (Biggest "secrets") 6.) Read a lot of g...

年轻,勇敢爱 (13)

更加注意自己的外形 要把自己最好的一面呈现给对方,最直接的方法就是依靠外表来吸引对方 不得不承认,外表在恋爱中确实占有很重要的因素 人们常说一见钟情,其实[种]的就是外表 外表的吸引力也会对第一印象产生很重要的影响 我们往往会认为长得好看的人更令人喜欢,也更好 当然,外表漂亮的人也不完全占绝对的优势,因为人们在不同阶段审美观也会不一样 外表不占优势的人会透过其他方式吸引异性注意 例如自己的内涵,个性,心态,专长等等 有长相的人不一定有魅力,魅力不一定靠长相 欣赏,是爱情中不可或缺的元素 得到意中人的欣赏顿时能让我们提高自身自尊水准 为了不让对方失望,维持自己在意中人心中的[一贯形象] 我们会努力要求自己,规范自己,提高自己,完善自己 这一点在男性上尤为突出 当然,自己的努力程度与对方在自己心中的地位有很大的关联 潜意识中,每个人都知道,只有当自己足够优秀的时候,才能吸引更优秀的对方 并让这种吸引具有可持续性

First week in Penang

#Wanna know what happened ? I am uploading this in a bus from Penang to home. So I bought a 5 45pm bus departing from Prangin mall to KL, ended up I just collect the tickets in Prangin mall, and there is a mini van that drove me to the bus station that is around 8km away. First of all, I already missed the free bus from Bank Negara to Komtar, so I opted to walk for 20 minutes from my workplace to Prangin mall.. I arrived at 5 30pm thinking I made it in time, and the clerks told me a mini van will drive me to the bus station lolllll. Ended up I boarded the 5 45pm bus at 6 10pm, and realized I was the second earliest one who arrived. SmellyChickenPie# Greetings ! From Penang ! I am actually writing this on 9/9/18, but probably publish it next week So I will be publishing the post about my first week in Penang at the end of my second week in Penang Heyy, everything is good here, apart from some slight initial adjustment The first weekend of my work week in Penang is actually a ...

The Monk (11)

Hi, it is the last day of this longgggg weekend I have been quite productive, I mean, more productive than I was at home ba Finally improve my trade logs in order to calculate the expectancy of different entry signals, plan to do one for exit signals as well but maybe next time haha, it is very time consuming for an excel noob like me Done my financial planning, the rest is to observe the discrepancy between reality and planning :P And ya, finally found an ideal room for rental within my prize range, hope the deal goes through Will upload a short Penang experience post next week (basically just 废话 lar) Have a nice day :) --------------------------我是分割线------------------------------ Self-improvement and personal expansion are the best things you can do for yourself. You might think that you are too busy to spend time working on yourself. This would be a very big mistake.  You see, when you have taken the time to build a strong character full of discipline, energy, powe...

Farewells

Some of my friends said they ignore all my posts that were written in English, last month I wrote all my posts in Chinese, so this month I will try to make it all English XD Anyway, I am totally okay without farewell since I am only going to Penang, which is very close to KL I think the thing that will keep me from meeting with friends are more likely work than distance I am writing about farewell because I am running out of ideas on what to write haha Truly appreciate all my friends that made time and offer to bid me farewell and good luck on my first job Had a 6 hour karaoke sessions with Sook Leng, Mizuka, Wai Jian, and Desmond then dinner joined by Yi Chen, Eelin, Li Yin, Mun Wei and Wen Jia. Sadly we almost don't take any picture when we go out haha, so I won't talk too much la More like we use farewelling me as a reason for a gathering :D Feel nice as I am able to gather people together, I really wanted to ask JR as well but I had to consider Sook Leng's fee...

August 2018 review

Haloo, sorry I have been deferring my blog update Reason being I have just moved to Penang for my new job and I am still not used to living with my relatives In short, I didn’t feel at ease for the first few days, hence I was not in any mood to write I will update my experience of living in Penang next time, this is the review for previous month haha ………which I barely remember what I did 1.) Meditate - Should be around 50% of the month I guess ? - I hope I can have a month that is consistent 10 minute everyday 2.) Trading - A trade messed up my August portfolio performance - That’s why you don’t do stupid things in trading ☹ 3.) Advance Technical Analysis - NOPE 4.) Fundamental Analysis - Yeah I think I did some research on some companies - Nowadays I mainly focus on reading analyst report rather than doing my own analysis 5.) Newspaper - Quite consistent, one Busyweekly and one The Edge Weekly every weekend 6.) Books - Trade Your way ...
