Overall performance

 

 

 

As mentioned last month, I've been away in Europe for much of the month.  As a test, I'd left my api running in my absence - wouldn't it be wonderful if I'd come back to find heaps of money?   Unfortunately I was hit by two unexpected problems.  Firstly my local telephone exchange was hit by a lightening strike, and I lost all communications with Oanda (and my wife!) for 5 days.  This caused the first major loss of the month, as my trades didn't get reset as per normal.  The second mini disaster was that I was caught the wrong way around on the end-of-month RBNZ announcement.   

All in all a 9% loss for the month, that can be mostly be attributed to just one day - the last one!  Hate that!
