Ok, understand the question you were asked now.
Yes TH was far above my level a few years ago. Wonder if he is still around

I never met him
I know Radge had a drink with him in Melbourne
He was a chef if I recall. Nick was impressed by him.

RRG system this morning sold VEA at minimal loss and SLX down 11% so a lost of $500 on these and
bought in IRE and WAF,
WAF was not the top suggested buy by the system as top was a share pending takeover at a given price so no chance of any action there and second currently popular thread OEC which is prepping for Capital rising IMHO.
So I broke the system rigid selection doing that but doubt it is a mistake, what I could do is filter out such candidates

First for the dogs of 2024:
the average win this week for the 10 stocks was nearly 5%..remembers..these are dogs....
Not sure if we can interpret this but for an irrational exuberance indicating the topping of a market?
But to put things in perspective we are still at a loss of 3% since January
Which is still much better than my RRG system started 2 months later
We had a good week for RRG system: +3%
even if I got out of LTR to close current parcel and reinvest via SPP getting a 9% advance this way
I will get new shares packets on monday
The whole of super did well +0.9% but not as good as XJT so we are getting close to XJT since inception
Super is 13% cash and up 10% since end February

That was for the good news..
The bad one:
I have been trading shares and ETF (not option) with Saxo on both US and ASX for the last 2 years
Not investment, trading shares on ASX, US and Euro/Canada market
On Monday, Saxo was officially taken over and a new app was provided..The transition was archaic, logging took forever with roll the dice outcomes
I found the new system horrendous, slow clumsy and unworkable for trading..maybe investing?
The saxo trading platform is still available but probably not for how long;
and now my funds were managed by DMA: I quote: "Johannesburg-based DMA, a technology provider for financial advisers and wealth managers"
Do you want to send them your hard won cash?
Do I need to say more?
So from Monday onward I closed all trades, converted all currencies back and started a slow process to GTFO
Bad timing as I was exiting on a losing day, missed the RBA rate fall on the ASX and US stocks jump etc...but better than joining a class action of screwed investors for the next decade
The repatriation is still going on, and slow but my exposure is now very limited and limited to some SPP I get in September
Next : open an ib account again.
Being a simple joint account and not a complex financial entity, it went smoothly,
I have not needed support and after choosing the wrong Mobile app, I have now switched to IBKR Mobile and am happy.
Fund transfer are still going on and I am just starting adding trades while still having funds moved next week..
A wasted week but sxxt happens
Hopefully will soon be able to play on the US market again when I wake up at 4AM and add a few low brokerage bets on some ASX juniors
I will post the total investment returns tomorrow after the US and options close.
Not great considering the overall market but another ATH

Yes not great vs last week market but another ATH after living expenses
Gold crypto and option went nowhere/minima' losses, Saxo unwinding and IB account ramping has some ..minimal but still ..costs
Just the timing was not really great ..ahh well, this is life
And we just got an earthquake and no damage I can see

system RRG had some accounting issues I just fixed, so that was a very good last week
1 sell, 2 buys on Monday (1 extra) as I need to replace the LTR which has a SPP, has been sold and replaced by SPP packet. and is kind of out of action for a little while so will be traded outside the system
updated graph:

yes i am starting to get nervous so started carefully building a position in BEAR ( maybe BBOZ and BBUS and similar later ) not big positions ( like January-February 2020 ) but am starting to take precautionsYes not great vs last week market but another ATH after living expenses

OK, another week breaking records on the intex, not so here, I believe we are really reaching a kind of paroxysm here
For example, the dogs of ASX last week went up like crazy but this week down nearly 2 %
This is also reflected by my RRG system which is mostly a small cap system and was hurt
The SMSF affected as well -1% and for the first time since February , we are underperforming the XJT
Not sure the total investment will be able to beat last week ATH;
a lot playing on the USD , tonight US market and crypto/gold..will update final values tomorrow
Saxo to IB move nearly completed
Still prefer Saxo trading platform for my needs but can not trust underlying financial entity.
Funds have been transferred and some entries done

Still heavy cash

First for the dogs of 2024:
Another great week for the dogs up 4.1% and NEARLY breaking even
So they beat my system...
We had a good week for RRG system: +2.1%
But this hides a bomb as I have some $500 of profit on WAF which will turn HARSH negative next week ..
Anyway, this is it:
The whole of super did quite well +1.55% , new ATH and takes the lead over XJT again
Super is 15% cash and up 11% since end February
Unless serious issue in the USvtonight, we could get another ATH for the total investment
Wait and see

Another ATH indeed this week
Good stockmarket returns, decent with gold but bad on cryptos.Currencies playing so so
That chart compares the invested amount after living expenses against the XJT..
In itself not that meaningful as the ASX total return does not pay rego and council rates;
ideally, i should compare to the inflation index:
am I poorer at the end of the week or not , IN REAL TERM.
I welcome any suggestion for an inflation, Australian or world ideally , index source
We can have access to the ABS CPI
www.abs.gov.au
but we all know it is bull**** data, better than nothing but still not realistic.
I do not care if the cheapest car I buy tomorrow has more electronic and emission control than 20 y ago version and these extra are deducted from inflation results; it can not buy the 20y old version new so will need more AUD than the official inflation figure will imply
