Hi All,

Just a quick update… I made a couple of trades today.. first one was when the market broke higher. I went long here but unfortunately the market didn’t want to go any higher.. I ended up with a -8 loss.

Then I went long at 149500 with a stop at 149350 and a limit at 149950. However, as the market was moving up, I trailed my stop to prevent my profit becoming loss. It eventually hit my trailing stop and I ended up with +8.

However, if I had left it, my target would have been hit and I would have had a net total today of +18 or so!

It’s quite annoying when this happens.. I’ve missed out on some good profits over the last few days but with trading, sometimes a trailing stop will prevent you from achieving the results you’re hoping but other times, without them your account would have taken a complete beating without it! There’s no right or wrong, just the end result which is a positive amount.

My account started off at $100,000 USD and now sits at $98,500. Ok, it’s a bit lower than where it started off but I have been quite careful (well mostly)!! Upwards and onwards!

Hi All,

Last night I thought I’d try and increase the aesthetics of how the blog looked and adopted some ‘Adsense ready’ Wordpress templates.

These templates adjust the layout in such a way to make better use of the Google Adsense adverts so that they are better placed and in turn hope to raise revenue by people clicking on the links. Time will tell!

Anyway, for those interested in doing a similar thing, have a look at the following link:

They have put together a list of Adsense ready templates for you.

It was really simple to do and you don’t lose any of your data.. that’s the beauty of Wordpress.

Have fun! Drop me a note and let me know what you think!
