my trading day ~ monday 8th march 2010
Hello to you all, and I hope you are all looking forward to a profitable week.
I had an early start to my Monday, and I was up and at my desk just after 6am. It usually takes me 15 mins or so to sort out my charts and trading platforms for my “Any-Time” system, and once this was completed, I had a trade signal on the EUR/USD Forex pair at 6:45. It soon triggered and I ended up with a +14 pip profit. While that was going on, I had another signal for a short trade at 7:30am on the S&P500 index, which gave me +26 pips. As you can see, I overshot my daily target (+25 pips) but I was not 100% certain that both trades were going to be winners so I let play out to their respective targets.
So with +40 pips in the bag for the day, I was finished the daytime session by 9am. My evening “Trade With A Day Job” strategy gave me my usual +20 pips profit with a trade that triggered just after 5pm and finished just after 6pm.
