The Holy Grail

I am a late bloomer in financial investment.  In 2009, I bought my first stock, at the age 39.  I have traded and invested:

• Singapore Stocks (Both Pennies as well as Blue-chips)
• Index Futures (SIMSCI, Dow Jones, Taiwan, Nikkei, etc)
• Spot Forex and Forex Futures (EUR, AUD, CHF, etc)
• Commodity Futures (GOLD, CRUDE)
• ETFs, Mutual Funds
• Corporate Bonds

I have traded 10 seconds time frame charts and all the way to weekly charts.

I have used used possible all kinds of money management rules.

I have used just about every trading strategy and trick that has existed, except arbitrage.

• Buy and Hold using Fundamentals
• Value Investing
• Market Neutral
• Seasonal
• Asset Allocation
• Event Driven
• Trend Following vs Counter Trend
• Enter on breakout vs enter on pullback
• Technical Analysis
• Position Trade
• Swing Trading
• Scalping using momentum

And of course using hundreds of quantitative indicators, hoping to predict the market movement

Here is my conclusion, and this is the hardest to achieve:

Step 1: Find the method(s) and weapon(s) that suits your personality, character, psychology, strengths, weaknesses.

Step 2: All the above must morphed into ONE.  In chinese martial arts term : Sword and Body merge

Until you find it, consistency is very difficult to achieve.  Fortunately for me, I think I have found the holy grail.  It was in me all the time.  I just had to find search within me while paying tuition fees to the market.
