my trading day ~ tuesday 23rd march 2010
Not a very early start for me this morning as I suffered a rather late one last night. I did hear the alarm at 6am, but decided it might be wise to ignore it for a while.
Anyway, a bit later on – a leisurely wander into my home office found me filled with coffee and in front of my computers at 9am, ready for some signals from my “Any-Time” system. My first trade was following a signal at 9:30 and I was in a short trade 2 minutes later. This trade gave me +11 pips towards my 25 pip daily target. By the way – I was watching charts of my 3 favourite Forex pairs (EUR/USD, GBP/USD and USD/YEN) as they have the smallest ‘spreads’ and therefore trading costs are kept to a minimum. I will be carrying on just watching these 3 all week.
My next signal did not rear it’s head until just after 11:30am (Cable) and that went on for about an hour, and gave me +49 pips when it hit its target. During that trade, I had another signal (EUR/USD) at just after midday, and that also lasted an hour and ended with a profit of +35 pips – so all in all, a very agreeable (and profitable) morning.
Happy with earnings of +95 pips, I had a nice afternoon with friends out on bikes and returned home to trade my “Evening” system. I ended with a loss of -13 pips, so my total for the day came out at +82 pips.
