Hi All,

Firstly, I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year !

It has been some time since my last message, for 2023 things will revert to normal, with regular updates.

As some of you may have been aware I was taken into hospital twice and had a couple operations. Subsequent to this I was advised to slow things down by the surgeon - which with the help of my wife I decided to take seriously and reduced my screen time.

We also had a huge hacking event where the entire YT channel was lost and deleted. Most of my social media also suffered the same fate. Whilst I did have backups of many videos I decided that I would start a fresh in 2023.

As many of you will have seen, 2022 was a year of a huge volatility in FX, with some of the moves, notably USD/JPY very much like what we had in 2008. If ever we needed an example of needing hold the trade to really capture all the profits, this was it. Other pairs were also very good.

E/U was of course called down to parity as was G/U and later G/U turned on a dime and has added no less than 20% since Lizz Truss was removed. Who said FX lacks vol ?!

I have been quietely doing a lot of testing, including against some US stocks; one remarkable advent of Metatrader in recent years has been the inclusion of both Crypto and Stocks, this has broadened the opportunities for us all as the volatility has been pretty startling at times.

I will be back with some videos and the creation of a new YT channel shortly.

The trader funding has also been revamped and we can now trade 24 hrs a day, with closing on Friday evening, this should make things easier.

Links will be posted later in the week.

Kind regards

Paul Langham
