my trading day ~ thursday 1st april 2010
Good morning to you all, and it is back to trading my “Any-Time” strategy by the look for the charts this morning.
Additionally, I have already notified my customers with regard to my “Evening” system today, and the probable lack of volume in the markets tonight, so I will not be trading after 5pm as I have been most of this week – instead an early start to my long Easter Weekend Break.
Anyway – back to my ”Trading Day” and I was in front of my computer screens reasonably sharpish this morning, and my first signal came along just after 8 am (USD/YEN) and gave me an opening profit of +10 pips by 10:20 am. Just before that trade finished, I had my 2nd signal (9:45 am, GBP/USD also known as Cable) and that shot down very quickly so giving me a +21 pip profit within 30 minutes.
I was also watching the EUR/USD FX pair but there were no signals while I was in front of the screens this morning although I did notice a very profitable one (+20 pips) just after 11:30 am, but I had stopped trading by then. You cannot think about the trades you did not take, otherwise you would spend every waking hour in fornt of the charts, and that is not the point of having a job like this. It is the flexibility I enjoy, I can work whatever hours suits me.
So this meant that my ‘trading day’ was completed prematurely as I had achieved over my ‘daily’ target of +25 pips and ended up with +31 pips. The rest of my day was spent completing the modifications to my computers, and also I managed an hour on the golf driving range.
I would like to take this opportunity of wishing you a nice, relaxing Easter Weekend Break, and if you would like more details of any of the systems I traded this week, please email me HERE
