I had chats with several financial planner and they seem to give me some ideas on technique of UT investment:
1. Certain planners would switch from their equity fund to bond fund once they have achieved certain amount of gain and when the price of equity funds drop, they will go in again.
2. Certain planners suggest me to top up regularly so that we can better return.
To all cikgus and sifus here, which one do you all think is much better in terms of return of investment?
thanks again for any ideas and teachings from you all.

1. The purpose is to capture or lock the "gain" but you never know when the fund will drop back. Next, there's switching fee involved. Switching too frequent is not recommended.
2. This strategy is called DCA and the purpose is to average down the unit cost price. It is usually when the market is volatile and you have less time to manage your portfolio.

If you invested heavily, locking the gain can easily offset switching fees. I'm not sure if the switching fee is a percentage of amount switched or a fix cost, I believe it is the later. You can do this when you're retired and not topping up anymore and want to lock the gain instead of letting the value to fluctuate. Switching between equity and fixed income is the right thing to do in such situation. For those still working, practicing both method is good to take advantage of capital gain while at the same time cost/value averaging.

How does the fund house calculate the past performance?
I have studied the NAV-to-NAV basis data of Hwang Select Opportunity Fund and have some confusion which i hope can be eradicated through this forum.

Date NAV
3 Apr 0.9354
27 Mar 0.9245
4 Mar 0.8945
4 Jan 0.8869

Can I calculate the 1-week, 1-month and 3-month performance based on these figures?
If the answer is yes, i have worked out that the 1-week, 1-month and 3-month performance was 1.18%, 4.57% and 5.47% respectively BUT these figures are so much different from those quoted, ie 2.0%, 4.9% and 6.7%. So Where have i gone wrong?
