Thoughts


A better week's trading on the equity markets.

We saw quite a bit of volatility, with the SPX again making new all time highs.

Well above my 2.5 % bench mark.

(I should explain that although there was a net loss in basis points, I actually made a net profit, since the longer term trades on the UK 100 which I closed for a loss were much smaller than the intraday trades.)

Looking forward to more opportunities next week.

Cycling wise, we have the Tour of GB starting this weekend, so I'll be keeping an eye on the action there too.


Stay disciplined.
Stay focussed.
Stay humble.
