2020 is over. Best and worse periods. December was awful.What I wrote up about 2019
"November was the worse month of 2019"
"The best periods or months this year were mid-May to mid-June there was so much happening, all at the same time, and September to early October."
"The rest of the year was rather fine with a small amount of signals trends events. Except November. That month was so bad.
December was/is not too bad, especially considering christmas. There's things going on with the indices, copper , gbp aud nzd..."
This is roughly how I remember it. If I'd have to order it I'm not sure.
I made great stats; they are somewhere on my hardrive, probably never to be found.
I'll group the months up a bit:
1- Half of May to Half of June, September, First Half of October.
2- January, February, March, April
3- First Half of May, Second Half of June, July, August.
4- December (maybe 3.5). November.
For 2020 well November and December are still 2 big depressing piles of horrible swamp vomit.
I don't know about stocks, but Forex stinked, and during this time crypto went up, and Bitcoin went boom.
So for me, this is my ranking:
(0- April for those that were able to exploit Oil really well)
1- September
2- October & July
3- January, February, March, First Half of November, First Half of August
4- April
5- May, June
6- First Half of November to First Third of December
💩- December past the first few days 🤮
Some quick note I have on it:
Jan to March ok.
April getting slower , except the Oil thing.
May June bad this year (too much covid crash in March April, and then uncertainty I guess)
July was fantastic
August was the slowdown so the first half was ok and then nothing
September rocketship too bad I messed it up, October stay strong, November the first half stayed strong...
And then it got really weak, less signals, weaker ones, don't go to target etc...
And then oh god. After the first third of December, everything just died.
Pretty consistant with the 4 periods view.
I expect to get x good trades a month in the period of January-May, 2x a month or even 3x in September & October.
Maybe 0.5x or a bit more on average in June to August. And 0x in November & December, even -1x in the worst period. Just terrible.
I wish I could go back to the 31 August and make a killing. I'm not sure how commodities work but grains exploded in sept-oct.
If I could go back in time I'd rambo in the pound, euro, soybeans, and I guess that's what marked my memory most, oh there were a few good reversals I remember too.
January is coming fast and I hope 2021 starts quick. It probably won't be amazing which is sad could have used the money, it's going to be a slow grind, really have to avoid bad trades but at the same time make sure to notice and harvest easy money when it makes itself available (oiiiillll), and tryhard to the max in september-october as well as any big period (they're not really as predictable though so maybe best not to go too overboard, only if it's really good and ticks every box).
I want to take a peak at other assets, crypto and indices. Quick way to destroy all profits, so I'll start slow - just a few trades, and with half the risk - and only do more of it if it goes well.
