Is been 2 months since I started posting my indexes calls. I am begining to prefer my indexes call compared to currencies, based on 2 reasons. Firstly, it seems to have higher accuracy, and secondly, it has a better stop and tp ratio.

Just a quick summary of how my indexes calls have been doing. For these 2 months, my MSCI SG is making profit of 371 ticks, out of 26 trades made, so that is approximately 14 ticks profit per trade. For MSCI TW is making profits of 218 ticks, out of 24 trades made, so that is approximately 9 ticks profit per trade.

Details of my trades as on MSCI SG and MSCI TW as per below respectively:

Liquidated yesterday's Eur @ 1.2903, making this trade a profit of 25 pips
Liquidated yesterday's Chf @ 1.1997, making this trade a profit of 37 pips.

No trade on currencies and indexes today.
