Bio
Software developer who has been trading live accouts for about 10 years now, starting with stocks, but now spread over forex, stocks, cfd's, indexes and futures. I have always had a strong fundamentally biased trading style. If my broker can be automated, i write a program to do my trading. Trading is rule based, rules i make up and sometimes change according to my fundamental outlook and market events.
Trading style
basically trading against the usd, using various systems of various leverage targets and various baskets.
system 1, 3,4,5 are a narrow basket currency+metal against usd. system 2,6,7 are metals only against usd, and system 8 is a wide basket against usd.
systems with a lower number are more levered than systems with a higher number, inside their own category.
I don't expect all systems to perform equally good, system8 is the one most surely to make a profit,while system1 will probably not make a profit unless the dollar starts tanking more or less in a straight line.
As of nov.30.2009 i have stopped trading system1 and used the funds still there to go against paying for the monthly API fee.
Motto
knowledge as well as smarts are needed to make money.
