Currently, FKLI Dec is trading at 15 pts discount. The discount is too wide and is bound to close back. However, cash mkt is going downtrend. Watch the 62% retractment of cash mkt. Generally, if cash does not selldown any more i.e. -0.5 pts, the discount will narrow to 8 or 9 pts.

Watch for the setup and long signal.

Monday, November 28, 2005

12:08 noon - FKLI on the last 3 days to closing

FKLI is trading to 4 pt discount and I think it is par level. Over the last few mths, FKLI shud be trading around 4-5 discount prior to closing due to convergence.

To go outright is not profitable as you do not know how the institution would rollover their contract. Charts do not work so well as these bearish market.

Wait for position setup for Dec contract on Wed or Thur - Dec 1 or 2.

The weekly pivot has been broken at 909.17 and it looks the FKLi is breaking out fast due to the short trading week. Notice that the last year 2004 Hari Raya, it did the same thing as it did this year. Interesting.

Cash Mkt for Month of Oct ....


Sideway for how long ? Your guess is as good as mine.

FKLI open gap up +1.5 pts - Buy signal is on BUT ...

FKLi gap up after closing at 925. Mkt Gap up generally mean the FKLi wud closed lower. However, FKLI is heading sideway.

The Buy signal is in but the setup has set in. Difficult to tell how to trade trade #12.

Daily chart is showing sideway movement. If there is money to be made, it has to be intraday trade.

Watch out for FKLI to break and close above 929.5.

To short is difficult as there are support AND to Long is difficult as there are no volume.

Daily Pivot:
R1 = 925.75
P = 924.5
S1 = 921.75

3:48 pm - FKLI hit 920 but ....

FKLI hit 920 but on a delay fashion. It is not the best entry. It shud break 920/920.5 at 11 am. I wud wait for another reentry.

Trade #10 is delayed from entry at this point.

Rgds,

10:44 pm - FKLI gap down to 914

Normally when FKLI gap down, it is up day. Wait for hrly chart to close above 920. Trade #10 is long at 920.

Thursday, October 06, 2005

3:25 pm - FKLI selldown to 913.5 again in the afternoon session

However, I have already cashed out at 918.5,. This is trading. You do not get the best everytime.

I am looking for an opportunity to enter tomorrow either short or long.

10:38 pm - FKLI open at 919 and selldown to 913.5

I think the FKLI EOD day traders got stop out at 916-913. That may explained why there are a huge selldown for these long position.

Normally, if FKLi gap down, FKLI wud close higher. My stop was triggered at 918.5

Trade #9 end +7 pts profit.

Watch to go for long position today at 920.5/921 .

4:22 pm - FKLI hit 926 in the morning and cash hold on

FKLi takes the opposite route and selldown to 920.5 which is the last support. If broken, we see further support at 918/919.0

Trade #9 is shorted at 925.5. Stop loss at 928.5/929.0 pts.

10:16 am - FKLI open 925 and run to 931.

System indicate Trade #9 is a long position. However, I rather short at this stage. For trading system, I wud miss this and trade on discretionary by shorting at 929.5.

Target to get out at EOD or stop loss at 934.5 as I am trading against trend.

Monday, September 26, 2005

9:48 am - FKLI has 4.5 pts range from 929.5 - 925

For FKLi to go higher, it has to close today at 925 + 7.5 = 932.5. Buying long at 929.5 . Premium
at now is +6.56 pts.

A short at this moment wud be better but considering the market is trending up. It is riskier to do so.

Too much of a risk especially when this Friday is closing of Sept contract. This is not one of the best buy signal but I wud follow my system.

Trade #8 is long at 930.5. Trail stop loss is at 928.0 pts.

9:48 am - FKLI gap up 2 pts and run away

FKLI hits 929.5 for the first time and I am reluctant to trade until 10 am.

4:32 pm - The FKLI is going to sideway.

If there is any trade #2, it has to break out of 908.5

Tuesday, August 30, 2005

5:07 pm - FKLI selldown from 4.30 pm onward

It is the usual syndicate to cash out their short position by pushing the price up prior to 4.30 pm and selldown to 910.0 pts.

This makes it difficult to trade with these professional and able to make money from it.

So stay out.

1:52 pm - Trade #17 : My stop is hit at 929

Trade # 17 stop loss is hit at 929.0 After being hit, the FKLI sell down all the way to 920.5 pts. This is trading, you get hit some time and the market goes without you,

FKLI hit low of 924. Can it go any lower ? I do not know.

Trail my stop lower to 930. At this point, my loss will be -1.5 pt.

Rgds,
-martin-

3:09 am : FKLI hit low of 924.5

Watch cash mkt if it break 930.0 today. If FKLI close below 928.0, the trend is down for the time being.

1:00 pm - Stop at 932.0

Trail stop to 932.0

11:28 am - Trade #17 is shorted at 928.5

My order is triggered and FKLI has gone lower to 926.5

10:48 am - FKLI did hit 937 and took out those short position


MACD looks to be crossing down and still below 50 MA. ATR stop is 930.5. Watch this level of 930.5.

If this level of 930 is breached for the third time, this is serious.

Second confirmation Bollinger Band is narrowing.

Trade # 17 is going to be short position at 929.5 or above.

FKLi is breaching 930 for the third time and a good sign to go short.

Friday, August 12, 2005

3:51 pm - MACD cross up at 12 noon

FKLI did cross up but did not break out from 937. If it does not break out 937, the market is not going to support it.

The market gap up higher and begin to sell down. This is a FKLI characteristic when DJIA close higher. This is a short pattern setup to short. It did break down to 927.5 and MACD cross up again. So, I cannot really make money from it. The market is moving sideway for Friday. Also no big inst. is coming to hold over weekend position.

Thursday, August 11, 2005

3:21 pm - FKLI hit today high at 936. Trade #17 ready at 937

12:22 noon - FKLI is forming a bowl shape at 930

Watch for reversing up.

Tightening stop to 933.5 stop.

11:38 am - A pivot is formed at 929

A pivot is formed at 929, to go further downtrend, FKLI has to trend lower past 929.

11:33 am - Trail my stop lower to 934.0

If the FKLI moves up or close to 937.0/937.5, it wud signify the 3 days of downtrend is over and buyers are coming back into the scene.

10:25 am - FKLI hit low of 929 and rebounded

Is this a sign of a rebounding ? If cash mkt close lower, then this is the 3 days consecutive down days - giving a chance for rebounding to go uptrend. Do not trend against odds.

MACD cross up at 3 to 4 days. Either today or Friday is the short term reversal. Still I wud think of going short as long as it is below 50 MA.

Trailing stops at 934.5.

Wednesday, August 10, 2005

10:09 pm - Trade #16 is triggered short @ 938.5

Trade #16 is triggered after 7 bar line change after MACD cross down.

Friday, July 29, 2005

11:26 am - FKLI moving sideway

It is difficult to catch any trend on the last 3 days prior to closing of

tell if it is real or not.

10:12 am - FKLI break to 938.5 but no long signal yet

My long position has not turn buy yet even MACD did cross up, the 1st bar at
the point after MACD did cross up, the high must be higher than the last
bar.

However, the bar was the same. Hence, no buy signal at 938.5. It had to
break 938.5 and higher.

5:19 pm - Out until now & trade Trade #11 at 929

Finally, the peg is abandoned and the Fkli shot up but close at a discount
-7.69 pts. The good news is that the closing of cash overtook the opening of
today. So I do not see a selling so soon yet. But who knows !

My trade #10 was closed yesterday just before MOC at 918.5. Luckily for me
else I wud have to get out today at the opening at 927.

Trade #10 : -0.5 pts.

I did something bad today i.e. in the morning. I did not plan for Trade #11
but traded without my charts. I traded based on my entry price wud be 923.5
if it opens today. The market open at 927 and went down to 924.5.

I place my 929 at 9.15 am and executed and it went down to my stop. My
disaster stop is at 6.5 pts which is at 922.5.

I WAS LUCKY as the today low's is 923. Else I wud out with a loss instead a
win today. My current stop is at 926.

I know I have to take the trade today even if I have not the charts in front
of me. I WAS LUCKY TODAY.

Let's see how the trade #11 wud end on Monday 25 July 2005

Rgds,

-Martin Wong-

Thursday, July 21, 2005

4:57 pm - Trail my stop to 921.5

4:47 pm - Trade #10 not working out very well !

I wud closed off Trade #10 at the end of the day or first profitable opening on Friday. I have to watch very closely the MACD and 50MA. My stop is at 922 and I wud go long at 923.5/924.

I wud not use a ATR stop here but go out with a small profit.

12:57 noon - Trade #10 is a short position at 918

Rgds,

-Martin Wong-

10:37 am - Trade #9 was triggered @ 924 during 5 pm selldown.

This morning FKLI gap up - difficult to trade as I am not sure as it can go
either way. However, by 10:30 am, it is obvious that it is profit taking
day. Mkt zoom down to 916. Some one is holding a very big size contract. I
bet this guy is hurting if he bought at 920 and above.

Trade #9 : +3 pts. small profit. If you cannot be happy with small profit,
you can never trade well.

Trade #10 is setting up now. However, the short signal set up is not great. You have the low at 916. Place Trade #10 short at 918. Stop at 922. Unless FKLI break 914 or lower, this trade is not profitable. Beside, I am trading counter trend.

BTW, i am having a fever and told some medication. I need to rest else I wud not trade well.

11:23 am - FKLI hit new high at 929

Thus, bring my stop higher to 922.

Rgds,
-martin-

10:58 am - Trail my stop higher to 920

FKLI break 926.5 and critically touch last high 927.5.

Rgds,
-martin-

10:54 am - Cash breaks 920 for the 2nd attempt.

It is interesting to note than when cash breaks 920, fkli breaks 925. There must be a lot of desperate trader trying to get in now.

Think of selling now.

Rgds,
-martin-

10:46 am - Stay with the long position trend.

Stop is in place @919. If cash mkt close above 920, it is good day.

The resistance at 925 is hard to break. Shud I worry ? No, the fkli wud do
what it wanted to do - up, down or sideway.

Rgds,

-Martin Wong-

Tuesday, July 19, 2005

5:15 pm - Indeed the FKLI closed above 918.5 i.e. 923.5.

My stop is at 919. So if I get stop out at 919, I lose 2 pts only.

Rgds,

-Martin Wong-

4:31 pm - Just follow your system

If I have backtested thoroughly the system, just follow it and I wud be in
the best place to place my trade.

In this case, I have entered long at 921 away from the rest of the crowd
(mkt is hitting 925). It is comfortable trading from here.

Read Mark Douglas "Trading in The ZONE". This is the area that Douglas is
talking about.

Rgds,

-Martin Wong-

3:34 pm - Watch out for 50MA on the FKLi hrly chart.

It is a very powerful trend indicator. Below 50MA, prepare to go short and
above 50MA, go long instead.

Rgds,

-Martin Wong-

3:32 pm - Broke thru last high 921.5 and tested 922.0

Rgds,

-Martin Wong-

3:09 pm - It is important to see where FKLI wud close today

From the pivot calculation, if it closed above 918.5, it is a good day else the trade wud not work out.

2:51 pm - Trade #9 is on long position. Park at 920.5 and got it 921.

I now parked my disaster stop loss at 915.5. (It remind to put in my buy
stop at 920.5 earlier than 10:51 am, else I wud not have slippage of 0.5 pt. )

I think it is best to put in before the mkt opens.

Rgds,

-Martin Wong-

12:11 am - My long order for 920.5 is with my broker

The FKLI mkt broke the 918.5 and touch 920.

11:26 am : Again the Bollinger Band is narrowing and ATR dropping

The FKLI bands are going to explode. Which way ? I do not know. Just go with
the flow. For short position there's strong resistance at 914/915. That's
leave the long side.

Watch the market.

1:02 pm : FKLI is holding at 915/916 allowing me to wait for the long position

Good place to long at 918.5 + 2 pts = 920.5 pts.

9:52 am : FKLI open at 916 and touching lower portion of the Bollinger Bang.

Watch out 913.5/914.5. If it breaks down (selldown), it is going down. How
far ? How shud I know ? Since I miss the short position, looking to go
long.

10:04 am : Broker called - Trade #7 & #8 stop out at 922.5

When I look back at time and sales of bid and ask, there were a huge
selldown from 9.19 am to 9.24 am which trigger my stop.

Trade #7: +18 pts
Trade #8: + 4pts

The market gives small profit. If you are happy with small profit and wait
for the big one, it wud come (see trade #7).

I am happy with the trade results for this week.

mkt close higher, I trail the stop higher.

8:52 am - Friday morning FKLI hit higher - Trail stop higher

Good overnite DJIA closing usually makes FKLI jumpy (do not take this as a

4.30 pm - FKLI hit high 924.5 - Raise trailing stop.

Rgds,

Weekly KLCI median range - 14.5 pts

Looking back to FKLI statistics table, the weekly median is 14.5 pts. The
week open (Mon) with 903 and it now 921 (3.20 pm). It is +3.5 pts - a figure
well above its median (right side of bell curve).

The monthly median range is 42.5 pts i.e. well above the current 18 pts
(921-903). Meaning, it has 24.5 more pts to go.

Interesting stats to know but do not let it carry away your greed.

Trail your stop.

FKLI hit High 922 - Trail stops higher

For each time, FKLI hit high, I trail the stop higher.

Fire ! Trade #8 long FKLI position @ 918.5

Call the broker at 8.46 am to park my buy stop @918.5. I believe if you can park with the broker earlier, you do not get slippage that often.

Again, I do not know where and how high the mkt is going to go.

Just stay with the trend.

Trail my stop higher for Trade #7 this morning.

Narrowing of FKLI Bollinger Band - Wed afternoon - Breakout ???

I got a funny feeling, there is going to be big bang (breakout) from 3 pm
onwards. I am not sure which way - up or down.

Just got a posting from a local remisier in CIMB who were impressed with the
ATR stop - keep't trade #7 in trend.

God of Trading kind to me - 4W/3L

Discipline to follow my system consistently wud produce predictable results.

Trading is very simple and at times boring.

Trade Position #7 -FKLI Long @ 904.5 and staying with the trend

Trade no. #7 register a long buy signals on Monday 11 July 2005.

Order executed @904.5 as Monday market open at 903. My stop is well below the market random volalitity

Stay with the trend.

As usual, I cannot predict what the market wud do.
