Today is the first trading day for the Indonesia’s market and it means that less sleep for me (I have to monitor both market, US and Indonesia). The macroeconomic sentiment is really good meaning that the rally to 1500 is inevitable. I’m currently holding stocks that is fundamentally healthy (being the fundamentalist as I am…) [...]

Today I purged some of my old post, ranging from April to July 2004. There are many reasons on why I deleted it. One is the legality of some of my post and the second is, well…, I just don’t want anyone to read it anymore :P.
I have posted some questionable materials on the past [...]

Me and the rest of my family celebrate Eid ul-Fitr today (October 23rd) while the government is going with October 24th instead. All in all, it’s a really fun and long day all at the same time. Fun because I get to meet the big family in which I seldomly see, and long because well… [...]

Since my last semi-hiatus post on searching for the holy grail, I’ve made some progress on fiddling with how options work. Not much but not small and I’ve decided to work on the following things:

Life is quite boring during this fasting season. I started learning options and trading the financial market at 5PM and continued to 6AM in the morning. After that, I get my good morning sleep (actually, my biological clock has already switch — I sleep at noon and wake at night) up to 12PM. Doing some [...]

I’m currently on my personal quest on finding the right setup for my next trades. My previous setup only give me abysmall return if any and hence, I’m pushed over the top to find ‘the holy grail’. Well okay, there’s no such thing as holy grail since the market is always changing and dynamic, but [...]

Site redesign is finished. I think you will like this more than my previous design (that’s if you’re a long timer here though). It’s more readable, easier to navigate, and color theme is easier for the eyes. I enjoy modifying it and I hope you guys will also like this one ;)

I’m growing really unsatisfied with my current design.
