- Not quite stellar like Jan13, but very satisfactory nevertheless.
- Table shows P/L breakdown by contract as % of overall YTD P/L.
- +'s : 61, 4, 4, 1, 8, 36, 3 (avg 19)
- -'s : 1, 10, 6 (avg 5.66)
- Avg + / Avg - : 3.3x
- Max + / Max - : 6.1x
- Much more disciplined trading since rule change after poor showing last year.
- Jan13 star was USD/JPY (say 81 to 90.50 = +11.7% on base of 100).
- Feb13 was GBP/USD (say 1.5750 to 1.5160 = +3.7%, but on bigger base of 237, thanks to Jan USD/JPY "foreign capital").
- If I can keep the -'s to the same order of magnitude as the above, then I just need perhaps 2 more trend trades for the rest of 2013 to make this a good year.
- Another significant milestone : Recovered all of 2012's losses.

Actually the stats are a bit different from above (not materially) because half the EC loss was from EUR/GBP cross which itself was a breakeven trade. I do not trade RP futures directly because my Saxo account is single currency (USD) and I do not want to incur usury GBP funding charges. Hence for non-USD crosses, I will always put the 2 legs together vs USD myself.
Way to go! I am so proud of you for making back 2012's losses... inspirational!
Massive sigh of relief!
