Two things I want to comment on

1. +9R for this batch. that seems to that batch that covers the other batches as well as shines on its own
2. 26R so far using a simple basic method.

Ask yourself a question. Look at the best FUNDS that provide great low management fees like vanguard etc. can they offer you more than 10% per year? most can't even offer 10% a year.

This trading method could be your best strategy to retire early and get to a stage in life where you don't work for money rather the money works for you? can't you see it happening?

Hi Immy

Thank you for your comments.
Alot of my trades were at BE waiting for the push, and the 29th and 30th August was the push placing funds into my account!

Interestingly I have just been looking into FUNDS, as here we have compulsory super, a recent enquiry into them has show just how poorly they have performed, while fund managers are still paid well. Fees taken are high and this doesn't help the compounding of your account.

My super is small, but at a close look it has returned about 7% in the last couple of years. My little trading account as you know started with $400, with it's latest run, and the current balance I am sitting at a much much better return. So the answer is yes, this will get me to where I want to be headed. Early retirement, security for my family and freedom to choose what I do each day!

Thank you again for helping us all, on our way to a brighter future.
Vicky

YAY.... You deserve it :rock

and yes, we can beat the fund manager , take matters in our own hands. But only if we can be 100% disciplined.
Remain patient and consistently keep doing what works. Just like what you're doing.

Long way to go and we are not tired... :cowboy
