Thoughts


Another very volatile week on the equity markets.

Indices sold off with the SPX trading back below 4,300, ad the FTSE testing 7000.

A very poor week, could have been worse I suppose, still well below my 2.5 % weekly bench mark.

September lived up to its reputation for volatility on the equity markets.
Over the month, I made 197 trades and a net return of 31 %.

Looking forward to more opportunities next month.


Stay disciplined.
Stay focussed.
Stay humble.
