I trade longer term mechanical trading systems exclusively on the ASX. I rarely look at daily charts and the systems are built using weekly timeframes. The information in this site is based on actual trades in real portfolios. I don't trade using margin or any sort of leverage. I mainly use Amibroker for system testing and trade monitoring. I am not selling anything. This is just a journal to record where I have been and, just maybe, where I am going.

Long term focus and another exit
I exited BTA last week. I thought it might have some promise but it just drifted slowly down till it lightly touched the exit point.
Since my sell off a couple of months ago I have been buying through September. There has been a lot of life in the market, especially resource stocks. The strength of some stocks has surprised me - YML, MGX, OMH hold some promise. My very limited research tells me that they are all involved in iron ore in WA. I also picked up MIS in the super fund - yet another iron ore company.
I am definitely overweight in materials and energy stocks at the moment. What happened in the market just a couple of months ago is a distant memory.

Hi Stevo,
Just out of interest, did you take the previous 2 trades triggered for BTA (as shown on your chart)?
Nizar.
No - I checked my records and this is the first trade that I have ever placed with BTA.
