2015 - May - Changed from Passive Long Bonds to Global Equities. Euro v USD down 35% May 2014 - May 2015

This week, May 2015, I have put in an order to move almost half of my net worth out of Passive Long Euro Bonds into 50-50 Global Equities. This is 80% my pension funds. If it increases 5% over the next five months I will double it up. If it decreases by the same I will look for another vehicle for my next two to five year strategy.

Or move it to cash if a black swan seems imminent. 

Europeans Dax shared tanked over 10 months actually from April 2015(eurobond reached its low bounced for 2 months then retraced lower a lot) to Feb to 2016 by 35%.
Nasdaq only went down 8% in the same period.

I have also with 10% of my net worth triple-shorted the Financial Stocks Index for the last three months purchazing FAZ. But this fund is down 7% since mid February. I am ready to pull the plug on them and go the other way within the next two weeks. I lost 5% on QID over two months which is a triple short ETF on the Nasdaq.

 It is time to move all my pension contributions into one fund.

And as much of my net worth into only sterling or dollars.

The euro is down 20% in one year. So it is not a good idea to holiday outside of Europe at all. Wait for QE to be reversed worldwide and inflation to rise to see euro become stronger and recover by seeing if EURUSD bounces back 30% to 130 as it has done over the last 10 years when it as dropped 40%.

2.5 years later EURUSD recovered to 125 from a low of 105 in Dec 2016(1.5 years later) but now Dec 2018 at 113.

Euro v USD down 35% May 2014 - May 2015 = 12 months
Dax                   up 35% Oct   2014 - April 2015 = 6 months

2005 June - What Tech stocks look good? SYMC INSP IACI. Prioritising use 50d 200d attributes rather than outer group circumstances

Which top stock is heading for their 4th dip in 4 months? I feel these are ready for reverse throws up, SYMC, INSP and IACI. They are touching their 50 day or 200 day moving averages. I will invest 150% of my portfolio for four weeks, the second week in May and then short the same stock 100% or a weak stock that is hitting its 50d or 200d moving average.

2005 May - Exit decisions impaired. Wait 4 more years for spike. Take 200% profit. Bet little to stay in for 6 months.More sexy Aikido moves learned while working in Spain waiting for Yaya

Shorted EXM - Bought NTES CTSH MSFT NITE I will wait 4 years for my favorite sexy stocks to walk back my way before I super snap it up like a true David Bailey. I myself feel lost again. I should be doing something about the sunchild program. I may find a hospital or charity for children in Madrid to appease my need to give. I should have bought today $100,000 worth of shares in RIMM or EXM. I will do it Monday afternoon instead. I should be calling Yaya my soul mate everyday but I am afraid to become lonely hearing her voice. I feel I am not good for her and her mental state. I need to put buy limits on RIMM and EXM and Yahoo. I feel I will lose Yaya and her magical companionship. I fear I will be yet another boyfriend left in another country feeling sorry for himself, just like the one she left in Chile. Nasdaq dropped one percent yesterday but my portfolio has gone up twenty per cent thank to a long gamble position I put on a 100 % leverage $233000 bet on EXM at 21 dolla...

2015 Nov - Change your morals. Bet on those that are betting on enabling humanity over tyranny

I am out of sync and I want to change it. As I am positive person, why do I gleefully celebrate 84 people mowed down in France. Because it may mean my stock short gamble bet may benefit from it. This is so wrong. And morally bent out of whack. My betting actions, from now on, win or lose, have to be in sync with my own positive thoughts. It must match my positive beliefs, words and character when dealing people each day. So if I say it is shocking, then I should bet against that which does not support my beliefs Or I should not short at all so as to not benefit from it. Or just bet when there is no tragic news.  I should only ever be betting long in these tragic moments as that is more positively supporting everyone. As humans, I believe, are inanely good not greedy. So, from out of this tragedy I have learned I should bet long or increase my long bets. from now on, I will bet on humanity over tyranny. "Non resistance, non attachment and non judgement"...
