I started serious Investing Journey in Jan 2000 to create wealth through long-term investing and short-term trading; but as from April 2013 my Journey in Investing has changed to create Retirement Income for Life till 85 years old in 2041 for two persons over market cycles of Bull and Bear.

Since 2017 after retiring from full-time job as employee; I am moving towards Investing Nirvana - Freehold Investment Income for Life investing strategy where 100% of investment income from portfolio investment is cashed out to support household expenses i.e. not a single cent of re-investing!

It is 57% (2017 to Aug 2022) to the Land of Investing Nirvana - Freehold Income for Life!

Trading Performance Review

Peter Drucker once said, “What gets measured, gets managed.

Since 1 Nov 08 that I have given up the fast exciting active contra trading (or gambling) after three successive months of contra losses:
(Total net losses in 2008: $160K
 Jan:$76K, Aug:$68K, Sep:$18K, Oct:$31K) for a slow moving position trading, how am I doing now?


1. ROC from 3.8% to 34.3% (I don't use stop loss so no negative ROC)

2. Holding Days from 1 to 329 days (some of those sins committed in 2008 and cleaned up)

3. Average ROC: 11.9%

4. Average Holding Days: 59.7 days

Next performance review at end Dec 09.
