My overall review of 2021:  As I am currently on my Christmas / New Year break, this blog will just contain all the spreadsheets that build up December’s performance and as usual, more information will be on website, link below under the TAB “HISTORY/PERFORMANCE” on my home page.

https://www.weeklyfxdrivethru.com

Overall, I am delighted and very grateful with the way 2021 turned out from an overall performance perspective.

The final monthly pip totals were as follows: -

DECEMBER 2021:
Total net pips = +3,300 pips

COMPLETED YEAR 2021:
Total net pips = +20,860 pips
(134.75% of my 2021 objective of +15,480 net pips)

 

 

Finally, in this section to celebrate the New Year and give new subscribers discount offers to join the WEEKLY FX PREMIUM, I have launched a BOGO offer called “DOUBLE UP” which will run until the end of January 2022.

Full details are on the  excel spreadsheet below and on my website https://www.weeklyfxdrivethru.com under the TAB “SUBSCRIPTIOPN OPTIONS” on my homepage.

 

 

1: THE WEEKLY FX PREMIUM – NOVEMBER 2021 PERFORMANCE:

1.1: MONTHLY TRADE STYLE PERFORMANCE:

 

Basically, referring to the spreadsheet above, this reports on potential income for single-lot trades and for simplicity I have valued Micro lots at USD$0.10 per trade, Mini lots at USD$1.00 per trade and finally Standard lots at USD$10.00 per trade.

Obviously, you trade your position size to the levels you can comfortably trade your broker account without creating margin calls etc.

Therefore, on the spreadsheet using the highlighted reference points: -:

A: - This represents at USD$1.00 (Mini Lots) per trade a USD$ income of $3,300 which, correlates to my reporting of net pips for the month of +3,300 pips.

B: - Costs trade reflects the fact that 51 Mini lot trades in total were undertaken at a cost of 51 x USD1.00 = USD$51.00.

C: - When subtracting B from A this gives a net income total based on trading just single Mini lot trades of USD$3,249.00.

I am of course grateful to have produced a positive “pip” result for the month. In fact, I think it is one of my best closing months, if not the best (pip wise) since launching a subscription service.

The average of pips per completed trade at 64.71 pips is substantially above my 40 pips per trade objective. In addition, in December I only had one negative trade therefore my ratio of positive to negative trades at 98% / 2% is as close to perfection as one is able to achieve.

Income came from all three trade styles. There were some nice moves with my (CORE) POSITION trades, so all of my stacked entries really performed well. The average pips per completed trade in this category was 67.43, which was above the 64.71 overall average.
Overall, a nice balanced month and to be honest, one that I was simply NOT expecting given the news and reactions emanating from the initial responses to the huge number of Central Bank Monetary Policy statements that were released.

 

1.2: MONTHLY TRADE BY TRADE REVIEW:

 

 

 

2: THE WEEKLY FX PREMIUM – YEAR TO DATE 2021 PERFORMANCE:

2.1: YEAR TO DATE TRADE STYLE PERFORMANCE

 

Basically, referring to the spreadsheet above, this reports on potential income for single-lot trades and for simplicity I have valued Micro lots at USD$0.10 per trade, Micro lots at USD$1.00 per trade and finally Standard lots at USD$10.00 per trade.

Obviously, you trade your position size to the levels you can comfortably trade your broker account without creating margin calls etc.

Referring to the year-to-date spreadsheet above and using the highlighted reference points: -

D: - The gross year to date income from all three trade styles is USD$20,860.00. This is based upon single Mini lot trades valued at USD$1.00 which, correlates with my reporting of net pips year to date of +20,860 pips.

E: - Costs trade reflects the fact that 503 Mini lot trades in total have completed so far this year at a cost of 503 x USD1.00 = USD$503.00.

F: - When subtracting B from A this gives a net income total based on single Mini lot trades of USD$20,357.00.

G: - An annual WEEKLY FX PREMIUM subscription costs CAD$1,500.00, which is approximately USD$1,200.00.

H: - After the annual subscription cost is deducted, the net income after all costs is USD$19,157.00 based off trading just single Mini lot trades.

There is a huge amount of additional monthly and year to date trading information and reports available on my website https://www.weeklyfxdrivethru.com This can be found on my home / landing page under the tab at the top of the page titled HISTORY / PERFORMANCE, scroll down to “This year’s Performance”.
