These Ratios in significant bottom in Jun 2010

My Mistakes Made Before This Massacre and Corrective Actions
only reading daily charts again and again every day, and being lazy to read weekly charts of indices, STI components and my own portfolio every Friday night, which led to missing warning signals sent by evident bearish candlesticks on the weekly charts before deep correction. weekly charts with warning signals and proposed exit levels will be uploaded later on.
Corrective Action
1. Created a separate portfolio in SI to contain all current stocks I hold so that I am able to read daily, weekly, monthly and hourly charts conveniently by just pressing the "down" arrow around 20 times for each kind of chart to avoid being lazy again (by removing reason for being lazy).
2. Marked "to read weekly charts of indices, STI components and my own portfolio" on all Fridays in 2011 in my home calendar to remind myself since I have the habit to write things to do in the calendar and read them every day.

what to do after deep correction?
it does not make sense to sell in desperation after deep correction.
2. do not buy yet.
wait for MACD sends buy signal first, then watch if bottom formations are developing on STI and its component stocks and if bullish candle sticks are appearing on the weekly charts and if bullish divergences are appearing on the daily charts. in this way we can avoid further potential correction.
3. buy once bottom formation breaks out with huge volume.

Stocks - plan to focus on blue chips especially STI components in trading. to risk 0.50% of trading capital for blue chips per trade, 0.25% for non-blue chips.
Forex - plan to focus on 7 majors and EURGBP, EURJPY, GBPJPY in trading. to risk 0.25% of trading capital per trade (0.50% before). need more practice.
