    Do you know Andy Lau is still my favourite Celeb in HK? Regardless some of his bad press last year, I love the way he looks. He was so handsome when he was young. But he is more charming now!

    Big gapped open this morning, yesterday’s bearish closing. Premarket extended move, all that makes me think today I could take fade gap play although price were traded above VWAP. When market formed a DT pattern, I went in short to fade the gap. The bull was too strong; it took my stop right...

    Nice volatile day to trade. I still didn’t get used to accept the great opportunities when they are in front of me. The 80 Pts of the premarket Gap down and the up trend line broke set my mind to the go short at the opening, before 7:00 news though. I though that this gap could be one of...

    I think this will hurt you even worse. You are going to turing into a nervous jittery amateur! I remember Bolimomo in one of my posts saying that " avge 10 Pts per trade unless you got stopped out, you are scalping!" "you are not intra-day swing trading". Try to ride the trend at least...

    After yesterday’s FED price action. 100% up then 100% retrace down. I was a little cautious this morning. It could still be a volatile day that traders are looking for the market direction. I was still favor in long because of the overall trend although it’s quite extended. But the trend...
