God has been kind to me this week. I was empowered with accuracy in my forex trading! I devised my own spectrum of indicators and methods and they turned out to be quite reliable for my trading.

Forex
14 trades
4 losing (stopped out)
1 losing (manually exited)
8 winning (target triggered)
1 winning (manually exited)

Profit: $101.96
64% winning trades

Options
Entered RIG Strangle 75 CALL 70 PUT for 4.85 and exited for 6.70. 38% gain!

Profit: $1.85 ($185 per contract)

I hope to improve the odds next week!

今天的训练好遭。
没有一次跳得过 1.60m. 教练说我还有十公分的空度。我最大的问题就是喜欢马上弯腰入杆。
心情遭透了。回家的路上,我低着头,走起步也拖着鞋。>.<"

1. Woke up at 11.30am. Damned! I wanted to keep tab on the forex market early in the morning. Nevertheless I closed out a trade for over $90 profits. So my $200 virtual account stands at $250+ currently.

2. Driving was not bad as I got a rather good instructor who had taught me before. My parallel parking was so much better today but I still got my lips scared dry.

3. I did something wrong today. I asked God on the bus to give me a sign. I opened my eyes, I saw a Caucasian lady holding up a few posters and looking at the first one which said, "Leave your worries to God, and he will iron out your problems." How beautifully timed was God's sign for me. Praise the Lord!

4. My right ankle feels less painful through my walking motion. That said, I should be able to train on Wed with Ronnie.

1. Didn't had a good time playing soccer this morning. Some malay guy blasted the ball into my left eye and twisted my spectacles. Not his fault at all. I was just at the wrong place at the wrong time. Then I tried to block a shot with my ankle. And now it's getting a bit dislocated and shaky. But I still managed to complete my training today without much difficulty. Praise the Lord for the strength when I needed it most just now.

2. Service was terrifying I would say...Evil spirits were getting purged and there were lots of yelling and crying. I told Jiawei who was sitting beside me that all those definitely could not have been fake at all. But I have yet to have an encounter with God... But my prayers were getting answered often...so that's a good sign at least ;)

3. Tomorrow I'll be busy helping my mum with the making of dumplings. Had to forgo the cg bowling outing...

Cheers! And I saw Kaijing after that :)

My Heavenly Father will provide for me in abundance.

Yes, and now I have to fold the "abundance" and put them into my wardrobe. That's a job for next morning.

Fact1: Singapore is the second most densely populated country in the world, after Monaco. Our 693 sq km of land is occupied by 4,657,542 people.
Fact2: With 693 sq km of land, Singapore is the 20th smallest country.

No wonder the public buses and trains are packed like sardines in a can!

Some of you know I love Sweden. I had a connection with the country many years back, when I chatted via email with a Swedish national high jumper. After knowing him, I realised I have to look further and higher in my jumping. I'm not after inter-varsity meets, or nationals. I want to go outside of the country. Anyway, here's a video to make you start to love Sweden. And make myself love Sweden deeper. It is the national anthem of Sweden, sang by the beautiful voice of Carola Häggkvist.



Du Gamla Du Fria
1
Du gamla, Du fria, Du fjällhöga nord
Du tysta, Du glädjerika sköna!
Jag hälsar Dig, vänaste land uppå jord,
/: Din sol, Din himmel, Dina ängder gröna.:/
2
Du tronar på minnen från fornstora dar,
då ärat Ditt namn flög över jorden.
Jag vet att Du är och Du blir vad Du var.
/: Ja, jag vill leva jag vill dö i Norden.:/
in English
1
You ancient, you free, you mountainous North
You quiet, you joyful beauty!
I greet you, most beautiful land upon earth,
/:Your sun, Your sky, Your meadows green.:/
2
You throne upon memories of great olden days,
When honored your name flew over the world,
I know that you are and will be as you were,
/: Yes, I want to live I want to die in the North :/

I started today on a fantastic note. I turned on my laptop, blasted music from my iTunes and started packing my room. It was in a mess. Unfolded laundry, bags, tissue papers on my table. Even I myself was disgusted by the sight. After all that was done up, took my plain breakfast of Milo, 5 cracker biscuits and 2 slices of white bread. Ya, that's why I said plain! I was eager to see how my trade on SPY went because I missed the chance to close it manually it yesterday. I was tracking its progress on my LG Secret's Google application last night while I was out with LY, Finian and Mr Lee. I assumed that I wasn't stopped out for my target because I saw red on my phone. But when I opened up my TOS, my trade was off the hook already. I seriously thought it was for the worse. But no! I captured a profit on $2.25 on the contract which equates to $225. Haven't got a paper return like this in a really long while!

Star Trek was a fine good O' space war movie. But Sylar from Heroes was acting in it so it was really anti-climax because his role in Heroes kept popping up in my mind. And what the heck, Harold from the movie Harold and Kumar was in it too!
And now for movie forecast for the remaining of 2009!

I found another hobby to fill my day time. Scalping forex ! It doesn't hurt my wallet to play the demo account and I can perfect my skills in trading the candlesticks...

1. Had my most emotional moment in Church today. Tried so hard to hold back my tears. It was just so powerful that I witnessed so many guys wiping their faces with their hands.
2. Decided to cut my head botak within next week. I dun like my thick hair. I want to be like Staffan. Botak and clear headed.
3. For countless times today and yesterday, I'm visualising the body movement when I am jumping up and cross the bar. I felt that 1.60m is a really good height to practise my takeoff and arch movement. It is high enough to make sure that I really need to JUMP up to cross and there is enough air time for me to do the full arch movement.
4. I'm getting more myopic. I'm seeing a very faint white blur when I look into this laptop screen. I am going to get new glasses before uni or else I can't see the lecture powerpoint!
5. I seriously doubt the local Adidas stores carry that yellow Sverige long sleeve shirt. It is damping my mood badly. If I could order online or get someone to buy from Sweden that'll be GR8!
6. I saw a picture of a girl wearing a baby blue Adidas top on the homepage. Baby blue turns me on! Okay the girl gets some credit too. ;)
My erjie told me off again. This time more power. Her first sentence to me just now was about me going out so late, spending dad's money again... I really cannot live with someone who tells me off within the first 3 sentences with me! I don't even want to defend myself. I just left her with her laptop in her room. Nobody understands me but God.

Okay let's talk about some happier occurrence for me today. I was at the Men United conference at church this morning and I saw this guy had a yellow long sleeved Addidas shirt. I will definitely buy one for myself because it was a Swedish national shirt! It had "Sverige" on the back! That means Sweden in Swedish! I am bent on buying it. Gonna check out the Addidas concept store in Jurong Point to see if they have it :)

I just couldn't forget that moment on Wed's training. I actually cleared 1.60m with 5-step takeoff! Although I fouled on that clearance because my takeoff foot grazed the mattress on the way up, it was a huge motivation booster for me. And Ronnie added the icing on the cake for me when he said my arch was the best among the three of us. The other two guys were Darryl and Chen Huan. Both of them can clear so much higher than me... I felt so freaking short around them.. CH is about 1.80 and Darryl stands at 1.88m. I absolutely have no feeling over my body when I jump up to the bar. I simply let the centrifugal force lead me over the bar. But I love the hang time. It's scary flying on my back, but it's more cool when I know the bar has stayed up! Staffan, you might have retired from jumping, but I am going to be the advocate of your technique.
