Luck seemed to be on my side this month... By a stroke of luck (and expectation), many of my counters bounced from low! Shoutout to Metaoptics, iFast, Marcopolo netted me 1.5k :D
Rex was a total surprise, didn't expect a white knight to pump it back to the 0.11 range! Took the chance to cash out my holdings which was "seriously injured" from the plunge earlier in the month. Sadly I didn't buy more, else I might have reaped even more profits :D
This month, while I had the greatest monthly gains in my trading "career" to-date, I had made alot of mistakes, missing out on even more gains... Metaoptics lost out on at least $400+, safe to say, as I was eyeing for exit at 0.8X, but scaredly-cat me cashed out at 0.7X.. Same for iFast, could have earned at least $200 more, Top Glove - another $600 more at least, CSE another $50, koh eco, another $300... so yea, my emotional actions cost me about $1k in profits, which could have gained me $3k for the month had I been more disciplined.
Coming May might be a sell-in-may-and-stay-away month, as volatility continue to keep major funds on the sidelines. Yesterday was a first sign of sell-off as markets take time to review the potential about the tech trends.
On my property side, I kinda miscalculated, thinking but I have up to 1.8m budget but sadly, forgot about the cash difference. I need to set aside enough cash first before I can continue using CPF. Re-strategising...
