About

There are loads of US based blogs about stock market investing but here is one from a UK perspective.  Using tools available to anyone, I intend to accumulate enough money in my SIPP (Self Invested Personal Pension) so that I can retire at 55 (11 years time).

Join me on my journey and watch my mistakes and successes.  Perhaps you will be inspired to do the same.  It is great fun!

I am using a trend following system.  This means that I do not buy-and-hold.  When a trend is obviously downward, why watch your wealth disappear?

I am interested in the psychology of the market and traders as I think that understanding this will help in my success.

I am not offering advice or suggesting that you follow my portfolio closely – but I hope that my progress may give you ideas and encouragement.
