Did You Trade

In 2004, when I first stepped in Indonesia, to be honest, I was very skeptical about the place. First encounter that I had bad already when the Immigration Officer wanted something ‘more’ from me when I passed the passport to him for stamping. My friend came into the picture and gave 1 piece of the blue note to him and I was given the first ‘warm’ smile to go through the gate… I shook my head in disbelief.

The airport was chaotic then and people were pulling tourists to sit their taxi or personal cars… at exorbitant rates. Normal cab fair from Airport to City, cost about Rp130,000 on meter. The guys were asking for Rp200-250,000 instead, which in honesty, is relative cheaper considering the distance between the 2 locations IF you compare to Singapore rates.  (then approximate 100,000Rp = S$20).

Then the road from the airport to the city was really bad… pot holes were littered throughout the journey and you can see beggars walking towards your car whenever your car stop at the junction or due the incredibly heavy traffic congestion. (But Thailand, in my opinion, is still the worst)

Then I had an Indonesia friend who been trading in the market for 2years. I shared with him my insight that despite all these, I see great potential instead. Its like a GEM deep inside a stone. The current shape may be bad but after much polishing and enhancement, the GEM will unearthed and it will sparkle. Its like fat and rich piece of land, waiting for proper cultivation. I asked him about the stock Index. He told it around 800.

I still remember, saying this to him:

” BUY Indonesia stocks now! Now its 800. I foresee it heading to 1000 to even 1600 in 3-5years time.”

My Friend laughed at me… as he disagree as he believe the great amount of bribery, opposition parties and huge discrepancy between the rich and poor will be the main obstacles and barriers.

2 years later, the Index hit 2830 high!

On Oct 27, 2008, the Index hit a low of 1089. Down 61% from its high. The Dow was also sold down and it lost 54% from its high of 14,198.

Today, the Jakarta Index traded 3115 while Dow closed 10,014 last night. Can you see the potential of this market IF Dow is to recover back to 12,000 level which I think is a fair value after this year’s consolidation. I am looking at Jakarta Stock Index to hit 3950 by the end of 2011.

You can call me over optimistic but I am rarely wrong in the Macro Picture of the World Economy and I have sticking to what I believe of the Indonesia market. Nowadays, I see no more asking of blue notes at the Immigration, better roads to the airport, lesser beggars on the street. All these point to progression of the country. So if this is to continue, Asia top 3 most populated country will definitely see their Index hitting to record high when the world’s economy recovers as a whole but of course, I must warn here… the recent inflation rate  in Indonesia have been rising so one must be prepare if it go overboard… we dun wish to see another round of Crazy Bull like the NASDAQ (from 1997-1999) or the Chinese market (from 2005-2007) but of course, that will not happen so fast… maybe in late 2011 or early 2012?

So before all BIG Selling, we will always see the BIG Crazy Bull first… and now, we are still very far from it… Enjoy the Ride!

Good Morning,

During one of the preview, a very nice young lady asked me this question after my preview;

Kindly give me 3 good reasons to join your course and if its good.. I will join it.

I thought for awhile and this is my answer, with no additional marketing gimmicks…

My answer; I am just a pretty Good Trainer.

I, have a been a trainer  for more than 11years, trained more than 3000people over the last decade, from all walks of life, from Singaporean to Chinese PRC to Malaysian to Indonesian to Hong Kongers to even  Taiwanese thus I can relate very closely to people’s requests, concern and most importantly, their psychology aspect towards trading. Every trainer, training school can say they have better techniques than the rest… but for me, I think if the Trainer can understand the student well enough and cater to their needs then even if you passed the best techniques to him/her, most likely he/she may not grapse it properly and lead to more problem. 

Every student’s name, I will make the effort to remember and remember their strength and weakness and from there, I will devise a plan for them with my techniques… because some are very fast and quick with understanding but not so good in application while some are slightly more impatient and do make rash decision in trading or while some are more afraid into putting trades in as they need more assurance from people like me… so many types… thats why I focus on HAND-HOLDING individually so that they can get the best out of me. In my post course feedback, in terms of Patience and Deliverance of my techniques, my average score is 9.5 out of 10. 

So its not whether the S$2888 that you pay is worth it for the techniques but its the effort that the trainer puts in to ensure you benefit from it is the most important in my opinion. I am a guy who offer (1) Direct Skyping Facility, YAHOO or MSN to Contact Me  (2) 9-5 Skype Conference with the Seniors (3) Direct Emailing Contact  (4) My Personal Number for my Grads to Contact during trading hours. (5) Short 1-2hours coffee Meet-Up sessions without FEE 

All my grads know that I always ensure alot MORE Things to share whenever I meet them and always READY to give for nothing asked in return. This is the Real Deal… Kelvin Han, was The Youngest Trainer in the Industry.  

( The above is a very nice place for good aromatic coffee. Its situated at 3 Temple Street, next to the Hindu Temple. Nearest MRT Station; Chinatown )

And last… I have been writing market calls, commentary, blogging and giving training since 1999…. I have a loyal fan base of more than 5000 daily readers online… and 3000 people in my mailing list…  and trained 33 classes since 2006 without a SINGLE Advertisement in the Papers… i think all these tells you something right?… I leave the WISE decision making back to you…

…..

That student???
.

.

.Of course, she signed up on the spot and paid S$ 2888 the next day… and she is in my Skype Conference now.

So how about you? Contact my Event Organizer at Sales@Genesismgt.com.sg and ask to speak to Eve directly. She will clear all your doubts about the course. And if you wish to speak to me directly, do highlight that in your email too.
I will return call as long as you leave your contact number in that email. My program is on this coming weekend, Saturday and Sunday and it will be held at one of the reputable hotel in Raffles Place.

Hope to hear from you.
And allow me to confirmed… this is no marketing gimmick… this is indeed probably my last course for 2010.

Cheers!

Best Regards

Kelvin Han

Hello Everyone,

As promised, here is the second part of the true life story of the Pork Belly trade… but before that, let me share with you a recent trade that we made some good money on the NIKKEI Futures.

                                                     *                                                                   *                                                                    *

Being a Leo and always want to be a winner in everything in life,  losing 60% of my small capital within 30mins in my first maiden trade was something I cannot accept. And with Mr.Lim turning from me and joking about it with his other friends… it was pure salt rubbing onto a bleeding wound of mine. It was unbearable…

I couldn’t hold back my tears and anguish, went to the male toilet and let go the frustration by yelling on top of my voice… after a few round of shouts.. I returned back to the office and we can see almost everyone was just sitting around since the Pork Belly counter closed at Day Low, locked Limit Down and not moving.

I search for Mr. Lim among the smoking crowd which literally made the entire office looked like a house on fire (then in 1999, smoking in the office is still okay).

” Mr. Lim, what can we do now?” … I asked him, with a clear look of  disappointment towards the trade.

” I told you right ya… market is like that, it goes UP and Down so if you are wrong, you get stopped out. If you right, you make. That’s all. We cannot always win but we also cannot always lose right? No worries, either you can sit around and hear our war stories or make your way back home now since you are still young and its getting late.. come back tomorrow and win it back from the market… I will help you.. “ he clucked and return to talk ‘cock’ with his friends who show me no sign of sympathy for my losses.

Deep inside me, so young and have lost more than 50% of my SAVINGS, I was dying for attention and console but I received nothing.

Alone, I took the lift down, returned home and keeping this trade in my heart.      

The next day, I returned to the trading office and expect only one thing in mind; is to recover my losses. I was quite early and begin to read the US Commodities market reports that was printed for clients. It seem that the market sold down because of an upsurge of the supply… I tot the reports were saying there was an increase of demand for pigs the previous day… sigh… ;-(

(FIRST LESSON FOR ME:  Never read too much into what you see in news as they are made to explain why things/events happened. They don’t forecast.)

Mr. Lim walked behind me as I engrossed into the reports..

“Kelvin, from the chart, the news and the feel, what does the market tells you?” he asked with a cheeky smile.

“Based on textbooks, the chance of going down is going to be high right?” I replied.

“YES! Of course and I am going to SHORT too!” Mr. Lim exclaimed with a high pitch with confidence.

(At this junction, I wanted to ask him whether he bought Pork Belly Futures yesterday when he advised me to buy… I just feel a little ‘cheated’ if I bought and he didn’t buy BUT we are too near stranger to ask and I’m afraid to get the answer that I don’t wish to hear.)

US Pork Belly Opened and the market begin to sell and I quickly look over Mr.Lim for guidance and he just show me the ‘ THUMB-UP’ sign. So I quickly hit the market with a market order to sell 1 contract of the Pork Belly future. SHORTED 1 contract.

For the first 10mins, things seem too perfect, the Pork Belly is down 50points from the Opening price and I am in profit of 30points… I moved to Mr.Lim for more advice (but this time, I am more positive since I am in profit).

” Kelvin, since you are in profit and lost so much money yesterday, hold the position and enjoy the selling since everything points towards sell. ” he answered.

” Mr. Lim, sorry to ask, did you sell too?” I asked with enthusiasm.

He just smile at me and signalled to me that he is going to get himself some coffee from the pantry.

The market goes down lower, down by 65points now.  

Down 75points..

Down 80points…

(Holy Cow!! My capital is burning up as fast the market is running UP!)

Positive 225points!

Positive 255points!!!

(WHERE THE HELL is MR.LIM when you need him most now!!!??)

 LOCKED LIMIT UP!!!

I slumped on the chair and I could feel the cold sweat trickling down my face and on my hands.. I know I’m in deep shit… not only I lost again, consecutively, I have most likely hit OVER-LOST position instead and I lost every single saving of mine! My Mum is going to slaughter me for sure….  and this Mr. Lim emerged into the scene… and said….

(Story to continue in 2days time)

                                                                  *                                                        *                                                       *

Good Afternoon,

Let me share with you a real life event about myself more than a decade ago,  *                                                   *                                                  *

My first ever trade in commodities goes back to early 1998 whereby I asked for the most senior trader in the office on the Pork Belly. The fundamentals and technicals were all pointing up; news that more demand of pigs are needed, RSI is still pointing up, above 20days moving average, etc. Mr. Lim, the senior trader told me that he have near 30years of experience in the market and can see the market well. He was around 55 when I met him. Granted that I was excited and wanted to trade and of course make money from my only saving of S$5000. I looked at him as I placed the trade in. He looked confidental.

Market opened and the market did edged up alittle… Suddenly, within 20mins, the market came crashing down and I was not stopped out… the market was LIMIT DOWN instead!!! I lost half of my account in 20-30mins!!!

And when I looked at Mr. Lim, I got a rude shock of his reply…

” No worry.. market is like that… tomorrow come back again and we will win it back..” he smiled and walked into the crowd of traders behind us and started to joke about my maiden trade… I never forget that smile of his till todate.

Tomorrow, I will share with you on my 2nd trade on the Pork Belly….

                                                                                                *                                                 *                                                  *

WIth that episode, I know that One should always know what to do, how to react whenever one enter into the market. This something I advocate to my grads since I started my 1st V3Go Mentoring Program in Surabaya, Indonesia until todate, my 33rd class in Singapore since 2006. 

Recently, one of our trade Live session, we made good money from the Euro Futures and SIMSCI and one grad called me to seek my opinion on the NZ Dollar and when I see the chart, I understood where she is coming from. Its was good selling opportunity.

Here is the trade that we made and if such trading method inspired you and you too, wants to make potential PASSIVE INCOME of S$200 per day from  the FOREX market, then you should really Register for my 2hours preview on How to Trade the Futures and Forex Market to make S$200/day.

People are begining to register for this talk and I will be giving all participants a little special ‘gift’ especially if you are already involved in the market.

Register now at Sales@Genesismgt.com.sg with your name and contact number.

See you on 1st of June 2010
