(Ihave encounterednegative problemswiththe FTSE100 and my resultsare affectednegativelyby
3 majorreasonsthroughoutthisyear.
1. My Masters:(lectureswere occurringatthe same time of the Stock Exchange hours,so I
couldnot be ina permanentpositiontochange a positive positionorclose itwhenitshould
be done if I was there tosee a change ina trendor learnfromsome newschangesinthe
financial worldof UKor the globe thatwouldturnthe momentumof the investment
oppositely,asa resultlessprofitsornegative returns).
2. My part-time jobasa waiterassistantina café/restaurantatmorning openinghours or
lunchtimes at the endof the sessionsof London’sstockexchange.
3. My workto the US stockmarketand crude oil marketfrom 14:30 pmtill close 21:00 & 22:00
correspondingly,The openingof crude oil commoditymarketat23:00pm and the Chinese
stock exchangesat1:30 am and 2:30 am and the Indianstock exchangesat3:45 and 4:00 am
till the close of Chinese stockmarketsat6:00 and 7:00 am, wouldnotleave me lotsof
strengthsometimestocontinue performingat8am inthe FTSE 100 whichI createdmy2nd
dissertation formore accurate positive resultsinone of the mostdifficultindicesworldwide.

2. Because I helpedlotsof membersof the forumfromthe start that I startedinvestingatthe price of
around50$ withmyanalysisthatthe price will goevenmore furtherlowerfrom48$ to pricesof 35$
at least,because of specifictechnical analysispatternsandotherreasons.Lately,Itryto analyse and
foresee where exactlythe bottomof thisdownfall mightexistmore accuratelyandIhave created3
differentscenarios usingfundamental analysistoolsandhistorical dataandtechnical analysis
combined fora more accurate prediction.One of them wasonthe brickto be brokenone of the
previousdays orhas foreseenthe bottom.(A scenario thatIam notso confident andseemsfragile,
because itisa more optimisticscenarioandIhave analysedthatmore badly andpessimisticresults
will occurfor the global marketsandeconomies,thatwill interactprobablytolowerpricesof crude
oil).
ThoughI was more of an optimist the previousdays,thatlowereddownmyprofitsaround10% from
+37.5% and 23rd
position andmakesme lose my27 timestradingwinningstreakinamore clear
periodwithoutworkingatmyotherjob,onChristmasholidays,andthe reasonwasthat I was
expectingthatthere will be amore immediatesolutionaboutcuttingthe productionof oil from
