Trading Update

22nd May 2007

All,

An update on the current state of play.

I've been on holiday and had some time off, so no daily FX trading, however have continued to trade the DOW signals.

The last signal (updated on www.dailydowsignals.com) was a buy at 13326 on 11/5/07, this trade is currently around 230 points in profit as I write.

Will be posting less here and concentrating on my own websites as I go forward, but will keep my blog updated with the main events.

Cheers for now,

Dave.

I am back!

18th September 2007

Hello to all you fellow traders, you'll see from this post that I am back...

...and firing on all cylinders!

A short update on whats been happening with me since I last posted, which was way back at the start of June 2007, so 3 and bit months to cover, I'll not get too detailed.

I've been out of the loop on T2W working away furiously, buildng upon my knowledge of the markets and doing a lot of statistical work on the 2 methods I'd developed - the FX Day Trading method and the DOW End Of Day method, both of which have been extensivly tested, traded and analysed during the last few months to come up with a number of strategies and variations on a theme which together are historically and statistically proven to be producing profitable returns.

I've worked these methodologies through with the assistance of some key people who I owe a lot of thanks, from both academic institutions and financial markets companies.

On the back of this work, I'm in discussions with a hedge fund for both the placement and trading of my models and a place within the organisation - no names at present, but I will keep you posted as to progress, the position should become clear over the next 2 weeks.

A note on performance, that the DOW End Of Day model has been analysed over the past 10 years and has returned an average of 2500 points per annum and has continued in the same vain through the first 8 months of 2007. This is before I've even optimised the parameters for stop losses etc.

So, I'm back and around the board again, happy to take questions. I'm finally reaching my goal, its taken a long time but a move for me into a fund in a 'quant' type position building models will be part of a lifelong aim and an incredible acheivement personally.

Life is good, and remember, the truth sets you free.

Good trading all.

P.S. The websites in the Blog are no longer online as I'd to take them down as part of the agreement to test the models.

Dave
