Many people have asked me how to forecast the trend base on the results i show in my charts and also wonder how many trades do i usually do in a day. The following image below is one of the trades i have done recently. On average I do 20-30 trades a day. My highest is over a 100. During the economy downturn, i have took a break from the market as it is too dangerous. You can't beat the market because there are always sudden changes in the economy and market manipulation involved everyday. But that doesn't mean you can't profit. You can stay to the fundamentals and technical analysis and put yourself in a better position in the market. To me as a trader and investor, it is very important to have a enter and exit plan.

Last year (2022), SG PM has shared an imminent recession is expected in the coming 1-2yrs. Are we there yet? Looks like most people in SG are preparing for it so I guess there won't be one...right? Time to go bullish?
There might be more ways to do it than this, but I found this one on accident and it's very easy.If you turn off "unlimited oil and ore" it will cause the industry value to plummet, allowing you to buy stock in oil and ore at a low price.

They prefer to let the losses accumulate, still hoping for a ma
