November 2012

November 30, 2012
In November we increased our equity by 2.4%; year to date we are up 29.7%. Last month the market offered us a number of good opportunities; we missed a few, but we managed to capitalised on the best moves.
As we are entering December, we are testing our 2013 strategy, which is designed to maintain the current risk levels and capture larger directional moves. We plan to switch to the new strategy at the end of the year.

October 2012

October 27, 2012
In October, the Cable was up to its usual tricks, with strong swings in both directions. Choppy markets tend to shake off smaller players, who often get stuck on the wrong side of the market.
Anyway, we made a profit of $1,267 (less $14 swap charges) and we are 5.2% up in the last month. The total score for a year is $5,298 profit after swap charges, or 26.2% equity growth.
