What Happened To Paulo1 In This Sub Forum.......

[Chivas]

Used to follow his information avidly in his long running thread on Stocks but seems to have disappeared off the Radar.....

I know he was hoping to set up an advice service whereby trades were automated on your own platform but dictated by him. Since then he seem to have gone very quiet and hasn't posted for some time......

Anyone know of his whereabouts.....??

Shame if he was lost to the forum not withstanding I made more than a few bob following him !!

[Paulo1]

I am back, but for how long....!!!

Presently trading fast timeframes out of consolidtion phases, most of these signals are to quick to post. like the EU, Cable USDCHf trade friday. The trade that I am really excitted about is a big FAT SELL on the AUD. China is not healthy, commodities are bearish and getting more bearish, the AUD is trading 500 pips from all time high around 1.1077. I am taking a big position of this and will be scailling in.

I've read your thread occasionally. FX trading isn't for me though. The main difficulties you seem to have are:

- FX trading can be a fast moving business. Hence by the time you have posted your trade it is often no longer relevant.

- The thread comes across mainly as a list of what trades you have done. Again knowing what trades have been done already (already past) by one single trader isn't really of interest. Not unlike golfers who enjoy describing their round of golf to you, but as you weren't there it doesn't hold attention for very long.

- The thread centres on mainly a single person with very little discussion

Addressing the above might generate more interest.... Good luck anyway

I agree to some extent, however I have posted 100's (maybe not 100's, but alot) of trades sometime prior the move. I also put levels to watch for a market reaction and possible trade location. If anyone want to know more i have left it up to them to ask. Recently I have posted trades that were done the previous evening for example and learning purpose, certianly not to big note myself or show-off.

I also asked other traders to comment on a their preferred timeframe. Then i would post trades to that chart period. I think, Daily and 4hr are best for forums.

The only reason i began the thread. I was living in Nongkhai relaxing and wanted to connect with some traders to learn , teach and share my trading knowledge. Presntly I have 12 students, 3 have been with me for over 2yrs now and trading very well. In fact, one left his employment as a stock analyst just one month ago to trade professionly. He is using the 5 min method i taught him and its deadly. Average daily pip return is very high.

Perhaps its just reality i don't have time to concentrate on a thread I began and giving it 100% effort, but hey its all been free and people have made good money from my trades.

Cheers

Yes I hear where you're coming from. TV isn't rally that specialised for where you're coming from, although you've obviously picked up some followers. Check in on some of the more general threads from time to time though, there are various people with the different focus and expertise, eg Naam on bonds, Lanna on various charting techniques and so on. You'd add some value from your perspectives...

Cheers

Yes, Naan, Lanna and a few others contribute great value to the forum. If makes me shiver thinking what would happen if we all joined forces and set-up a investment trading company. The depth of knowledge would be significant. But then again who can really be bothered when we are either retired or semi retired.

it would be very difficult because our applied time frames do not match. sometimes it takes me a whole day or more to research and evaluate a single bond. only on very rare occasions i make an ad hoc decision within minutes to buy or sell.

by the way, i second Chivas that your comments are indeed very interesting but i admit that sometimes i'm at a loss to understand fully your lingo

no one is interested and thats cool, people have there own life to live.

i'm sure more people would be interested in your postings and perhaps ask questions if you'd explain (nomen est omen) your actions in more plain words.

Yes Naan,

I should put more thought into my postings in regards to other traders. Being a trader i get in this mode where i think people that have followed the thread can see the reason in my post, my mistake.

Starting the tread was just about education, and then progressed into helping people (farangs) living in Tland to make additional income to support their lifestyle.

Fully appreciate your posts also. Thanks.

I don't think timeframes would be an issue because a chart is a chart whether its a 5min, weekly or quarterly doesn't make much of a difference. The idea to combine different market approaches in a broadly diversified portfolio (chart technical and fundamental) seems pretty interesting.

for me charts are not an issue. i buy, hold, sell, switch and trade a certain category of bonds (category changes every few years) without charts influencing my decisions.

Well, believe it or not you are also using a chart just is it one that nobody else can see or read. Anyway more of a point is to have different markets and approaches combined to chose which brings along diversification and skills enhancement. And from possibilities there is almost no limit where or how to invest. Consider you take your wife to a restaurant where there is a big nice buffet offering many different things. Would you rather go 2times for German Wurst and remain hungry if it's finished after a while or would you go for salad, soup, antipasti, meat and vegetable dishes and maybe a dessert on the top?

-in 35 years the wurst i liked was never finished.

-i rather stay hungry than eating something that might give me food poisoning...

-...because i have no idea how it was prepared.

-an old dog is not willing to learn new tricks as long as his old tricks result in wurst galore

I don't think there is a right or wrong, its more about what works for you.

"-i rather stay hungry than eating something that might give me food poisoning..." , bit like toxic debt.

Justin Pugley www.mahifx.co.nz

UK financial services group, Standard Life, reckons the Australian dollar “looks priced well above perfection” when the individual components are analysed. It notes the China slowdown as being a factor and that strong commodity demand has necessitated high interest rates in Australia to stop the economy boiling over. But with inflationary expectations easing and with slowing local employment conditions the scene could be set for more cuts in interest rates potentially removing one of the big attractions of the Australian dollar, namely its yield. And on top of that there's the fact that it is seen as a de-facto risk asset. Indeed, with so many foreigners holding Australian dollars there is a risk that it could be sold off aggressively and fall rapidly if the world's economic outlook were to deteriorate significantly.

"-i rather stay hungry than eating something that might give me food poisoning..." , bit like toxic debt.

a well justified comment Paulo. however, moving with care within a toxic environment without betting the ranch on a positive outcome can be quite rewarding. i admit that it is quite difficult to avoid setbacks, but the overall risk/reward ratio justifies a certain risk.

unfortunately there are no rules of the game, TA does not apply, except for those professionals who trade very high amounts but balance their exposure at the end of each trading session. and of course there are no short term results achievable as it is possible with currency trading except during extreme crisis times.

Don't believe anything Naam says, at best he is a used car sales person.

Sadly I'm inclined to agree after the last few posts he's listed......

Complete meltdown for whatever reason....
