I ended the month with equity of 18K, down from 48K a week ago. In hindsight, I should have exited for a decent recovery when my equity was over 50K instead of holding onto that last position. With new month comes new opportunity.

There's nothing to report from the first day of the January Trader Contest as the markets were closed.
After exactly one year, I finally managed to win another prize in Binary Option Contest. I got in the top 10 in the first week of the contest and, with about 11K of profit, I decided to wait until the last day to see if and how much I'll need to risk to defend the top 15 position. With a combination of a couple of successful bets and a fair amount of luck I was able squeeze back into top 15.

Making right decisions at and with right time
I hate when I take my "bet" on a binary option with longer time frame, and when the option expire I was beaten by just a tiny little margin of a pip, and then it continue to the "right" way.
Just like the old joke:
A man go to the drugstore, and says he need some laxative.
The pharmacist ask him:
- Are you go home with car or bus?
- Bus.
- How many stops you travel?
- Nine.
- How long you have to walk to your home?
- 500 meters.
- Single or multi-storey building?
- Multi.
- Floor number?
- Five.…

I have started April Trader Contest with winning GBP/USD (3M) and losing GBP/CHF (3M) trade, but I am in another potentially promising GBP/USD (2.5M) trade, which I intend to hold for at least 200 pips. It all depends on whether USD pullback will continue after weak payrolls number. By all logic, it should, but one can never be sure, so I'll be moving SL to around break-even early on Monday.

Alpari (UK) insolvency
Submitted on Fri, 16/01/2015 - 12:00;
The recent move on the Swiss franc caused by the Swiss National Bank’s unexpected policy reversal of capping the Swiss franc against the euro has resulted in exceptional volatility and extreme lack of liquidity. This has resulted in the majority of clients sustaining losses which has exceeded their account equity. Where a client cannot cover this loss, it is passed on to us. This has forced Alpari (UK) Limited to confirm today, 16/01/15, that it has entered …
