SRS account 34% return in 6 months

Previously I have explained why I contributed to my SRS account here.

I have been wanting to do this update but couldn't find the time to do it.

Since then I have done trading with my SRS fund and obtained superior returns thus far.
As SRS account earns peanut interest, I am compelled to invest/trade.

From the period of Jan to Jun 2018, I have grown my SRS from 15.3k to 20.5k. A whopping 34% return in 6 months!

Below screenshots show my transaction history. Thus far, I must say I have been very lucky and have picked the correct stocks to trade. All the trades have been 100% profitable.  All of them have weathered the fearful trade war and rising interest rates period.

The trades all involved blue-chips. Who says you cannot earn from blue-chips :) ?
They involved various strategies such as dividend play, speculation play, etc. It takes a lot of patience and observation of the market to be able to achieve such a feat.

Hope this inspires people out there to grow their retirement nest.

Some tips:

  1. Be very selective.
  2. Stay away from what you do not understand.
  3. Do not chase high prices. 
  4. Be patient.
