From a construction company to the world of investment
|
| Do. said, “I ran a construction company”How did you come to start investing? |
|
|
|
| Gogojan Hayakawa |
|
|
|
Yes. I started as a carpenter, gradually began getting large orders as a construction company, and I was moving about 150 million yen per year.
However, working capital was always needed, so I casually startedCommodity futuresto supplement funds. |
|
| It seemed management was going well, but what prompted you to focus on investing? |
|
|
|
| Gogojan Hayakawa |
|
|
| Do. |
|
In construction, materials and land require huge sums of money.
There was a desire to have more liquidity to manage cash flow. |
|
|
Bitter experience in futures trading
|
| You started with futures, what were the results? |
|
|
|
| Gogojan Hayakawa |
|
|
|
| Do. |
|
I experienced almost everything: crude oil, gold, corn, and the Nikkei 225.
But I got a margin call and incurred large losses.
At that point,“I can’t continue like this”I felt. |
|
| So the financial burden was indeed heavy. |
|
|
|
| Gogojan Hayakawa |
|
|
|
| Do. |
|
Yes. Payments overlapped, and I ended up putting money into trading that I should have kept aside.
What began as hoping for liquidity turned into becoming more trapped in the market. |
|
|
Encounter with FX and turning point
|
| Then how did you move to FX? |
|
|
|
| Gogojan Hayakawa |
|
|
|
Futures had many trading hours and restrictions, making it hard to move.
SoI thought that with higher liquidity and relatively low margin risk, FX might work well.That was the trigger. |
|
| What were your trades like at that time? |
|
|
|
| Gogojan Hayakawa |
|
|
|
Looking back, it was truly reckless.
I didn’t set any rules and would increase positions because “I have payments this month,” so there was no way to win. |
|
|
Changes brought by meeting a mentor
|
| During the ongoing pursuit of investing, what became a turning point? |
|
|
|
| Gogojan Hayakawa |
|
|
|
I met a professional investor.
First I purchased a course and spoke directly at a seminar.
That person’s words led me to reorganize my business and start over with investing alone. |
|
| Specifically, what words stayed with you? |
|
|
|
| Gogojan Hayakawa |
|
|
|
| Do. |
|
“Even if you keep borrowing, the fundamentals won’t change. You must settle once, then start again. It’s okay, investing can be done by one person.”That sentiment hit me hard.
Even now I feel I can’t quite match the mentor’s investing and business acumen. |
|
|
A winning strategy found precisely because funds were scarce
|
| How did your trading change afterward? |
|
|
|
| Gogojan Hayakawa |
|
|
|
| Do. |
|
I went bankrupt, funds zero, and I supported myself with a part-time job while I continued testing.
Because there was no money, I could trade in small lots and stick to the rules for stop-loss and take-profit properly. |
|
| Conversely, did lack of funds become a positive? |
|
|
|
| Gogojan Hayakawa |
|
|
|
| Do. |
|
| Yes. When I had a lot of money, I yielded to greed, but when funds were tight, I could calmly follow the rules.This led me to the “Simple Logic FX.” |
|
| With all the twists and major events up to now, you have arrived at your current FX logic, right? |
