Year 3

This year 3 my goal is to focus on the swing trading and the acquisition of knowledge and experience on this type of trading.

The ideal swings will take only days (no in-day trading at this minute).

Year 3, Quarter 1

As usual these are the goals for this quarter, following the V2MOM model:

• Vision: organize the trading activities under a framework and specific commands that enable me to long and short stocks. Manage the portfolio of money based on Automatic trading principles.
• Values: have fun, learn a lot, do practices and more practices.
• Method: learn about specific trading tactics, learn about the context of the market and finance fundamentals.
• Obstacles: Time.
• Measures:
  • Read 2 books.
  • 3 podcasts listened every week, this will be a total of around 39 hours of podcasts.
  • have a tactic plan.
  • Read at least 13 earning reports.
  • Keep track of the portfolio in a weekly basis.
  • Avoid in-day trading.
