6 Simple Ways to Save Yourself from Heart Attack

http://filipinonurses.org/index.php/2012/02/6-simple-ways-to-save-yourself-from-heart-attack/

tot for the day (28 jul 2013)

There are a few common traits for the winning traders I have seen and read about.

1. Almost all the winning traders are not egomaniacs they are flexible to what is happening with price action.

2. They are very good students of the markets and understand historical price action.

3. They focus like a laser on their specific methodology and are experts at it.

4. They believe in what they are doing with an almost religious fervor, they KNOW that what they are doing works.

5. They have nothing to prove to anyone they just trade their method.

6. They are life long learners always trying to improve and grow.

7. They have rules they follow.

8. They only trade a predetermined watch list.

9. The winning traders always remove the risk of ruin with stop losses and position sizing.

10. They don’t fight the market when wrong, they cut their losses and move on to their next trade.

You don’t need a crystal ball to do well as a trader. 

You can ignore the endless deluge of pointless shit most traders pay attention to.

You don’t need certainty — ever. Probability alone can keep you in clover.

non-stok tots: before midnight (17 jul 2013)

was able to catch "before midnight" yesterday evening at sm's "the block" (somehow type ko pa den manoood sa movie house instead of just downloading from torrent) ...

well what can i say? ... julie's 43 year old tits are still fantastic ... i first saw the pair years ago when i watched her in "la passion beatrice" (she was just 18 then) ... yan ang benefit ng having an office just near alliance francaise (nasa buendia pa sya noon ... now sa bel air na sya - if u like watching movies and nasa makati area ka na den lang ... i recommend u watch @alliance francaise ... wednesday evenings  .. libre lang naman .. and bring ur date .. u can have dinner muna sa french resto nila before the movie) ...

the scenes and dialogues are longer than the previous "before" movies (before sunsrise and before sunset) ... and more mature i think (mag-asawa na sila celine at jesse) ... "before midnight" is a romantic drama ... but its a movie i dont seem to like watching with someone (well i was alone last night) ... parang its a film one has to watch by one's lonesome .... wala .. feel ko lang ganun ...

the film ends na parang nagkabati na ulet si celine at jesse ... pero ewan ko lang ...

tinamaan ako nung sinabi ni celine kay jesse ... i dont love you anymore ... eh? ganun lang? u dont love him anymore agad? deja vu just one month ago ... after breaking up and reconciling for the nth time ... nadinig ko den yan dialogue na yan .. pero yung sa version ko .. "i dont love you" lang .. shet .. walang "anymore" ... so .. never ever pala sya na inlab sa aken (libog lang pala ang lahat) pakshet ...

its a movie na hindi enough na panoorin lang once ... definitely ill have to watch it again .. kung hindi sa sinehan ulit .. hintayin ko sa hbo .. or .. sa torrent ... madami dialogue na nadinig ko nga pero di nag register sa utak ko kasi yung dina-digest ko pa lang yung naunang linya ...

its not a movie for everyone (well .. r-16 nga pala sya) .. pero i mean .. romantic movie nga .. pero not that kind of romantic movie ... wala pa yata 20 kami sa loob .. meron isa pair pa nga umalis na wala pa kalahati ng movie ...

2. sm has been subject to bearish sentiments the past 4 trading days as evidenced by the red candles with the 900s acting as psychological resistance  ...

questi0n and answer: from facebook (10 jul 2013)

question:

Hi Boss, I'm an avid follower of your blogs.. Have read all your indicators/habits/decision making stuffs.. just wanted to ask where i can attend seminar or get someone who can teach me about technical analysis? 

i wanted it to be as simple as yours..

becuase currently I already have 20% realized loss of my capital.. i'm only at my 2nd month in the market thats a huge blow for me.. that's why i wanted to make it right this time so i can recover everything that ive lost

btw, JFC is one of my favorite stocks thats why im reading your blogs

my reply:


tnx for ur kind words ...

i myself have not attended any of those "for-pay" technical analysis seminars .. the only formal sit in seminar i attended were those conducted by citiseconline which they regularly schedule for their clients .. the ones i attended were conducted by mr. juanis barredo .. the analysis i do in my blog i just gathered from the books and online articles i have read ... it works for me and my style of trading ... the seminars now that we have in the market are mainly basic and comprehensive .. basic and comprehensive in the sense that they are geared for those who are still uninitiated and are still looking for their own trading style ... so these seminars are ok ... i have nothing against them ... as for seminars on my kind of technical analysis ... im afraid u wont find anything pa being conducted ... i am not conducting "seminars" like the ones now in the market ... but u can always chat me for stock market questions in yahoo messenger and skype if u want or just leave ur messages here in facebook .. my ym is: xxxxx@yahoo.com .... my skype name is: xxxxx ...

i have jfc also .. but im mainly featuring jfc in the blog just to illustrate my trading style .. one can just follow how i trade jfc using the macd histogram and stochastics indicators ... and apply these in trading other stocks .. ganun lang ..

tnx also for reading the blog ...

great trades! good times!
