FtR 10.7 Sep 2015 Signals Update


Yes, FtR 10.7 suffered losses in September. The win/loss ratio is terrible, only 2 profitable trades out of 8 trades taken. This is trading reality. Low win/ratio doesn't mean one strategy is flaw. Many trend trading strategies have win/loss ratio of about 25-30%. They achieve profitability when the net amount of profits is larger than the net losses losses. However, in my case this month, obviously losses are bigger than profits.

FtR 10.7 Aug 2015 Signals Update



After 2 months of negative return, FtR 10.7 finally reversed the course and registered new equity high in August. I didn't sway from my original trading system when it faces 2 consecutive months of drawdown. I hope this will serve as a good reminder when I am dealing with drawdowns in the future. pat myself on the back :-)

FtR 10.7 May 2015 Signals Update


Ups and downs. This month started with a big win in ZB then market slowly took away all the profits. The last trade, which closed today, bring in very small profits to end this roller coaster May. As consolation, FtR 10.7 still maintain "clean sheet" in 2015. :)

FtR 10.7 Apr 2015 Signals Update



This month, Crude Oil futures, CL rebounds aggressively to test $60 a barrel. FtR 10.7 managed to capture part of the move and grabbed some profit of $3000++ per lot. This trade alone contributed to more than 50% of the total profit for the month of April.

The "usual suspect" ZB also did well for the month of April. Representatives from grain futures, Corn, ZC and Wheat, ZW made some bearish movement while Soybean, ZS remain sideways...

FtR 10.7 Mar 2015 Signals Update

 
FtR 10.7 Trading System ended 1Q 2015 with another profit month, albeit a small one. 4 out of 7 trades turned out to be losses. And I would say this is normal for trend traders. 4 "consecutive losses" too is no strange thing for us. If you are still searching for all win and no losses (holy grail), then probably trading is not for you.

Good day everyone.
