Hello again after months of hibernation

My Jinnie Planet had gone for hibernation for almost 6 months. It's now July, first month of the second half of the year and I wonder what I've done for the past 6 months?

Apart from work, can't remember what I've done lately. One thing really cheer me up was my getaway trip to Hong Kong for a week with my lovely hubby during the World Cup Season. Well, not that the World Cup is held in Hong Kong, at least the quiet period at work is alright for me to be away from work. The previous time we went was 7 years ago. 7 years, can't imagine we are still together after 7 years. Caught up with our ex-housemates and friends we knew back in Melbourne; shopping everyday and hop over to Macau and casinos visit were our activities. I really think I should be a travel agent instead of a broker. So much fun of travelling!

Straightaway back from the trip, Jinnie participated in the 2010 KL Standard Chartered Marathon and completed 21km. I've come a long way in this journey, from someone who doesn't like exercise to completed 21km. Although I didn't complete the whole marathon with full running since I pulled my muscle, but at least I didn't catch a shuttle in the middle of the way. Good sporting spirit!

Work, work has made me busy for the past few months and especially with the volatility in the market nowadays, it suffocates me and sometimes felt like being killed softly. Working spirit is getting lower and lower and I wonder how should I move on from here. Life is not heading anywhere, just like our market; no matter how high it went or how low it goes for the past few months, it's still trading within the range of 1280-1340. The market needs a break up or break down to show a better direction, just like I'm waiting for a clearer direction to have a breakthrough in my life.

I've been following the market closely for the past 2 years, especially in the past 6 months, I know what I want to do in the market. If you asked me, have I made big bucks lately? The answer is certainly No. Have I been losing badly lately? Not really. This shows that I'm not heading anywhere.

After things happened this week, I think I get a clearer picture of how to make money in the market. Maybe I won't write a book about how to make big bucks in the futures market, but I certainly can tell how to avoid losing big money. In other words, minimise your losses and maximize your profits. Will tell you more about it, so, be patient and wait for my first book!
