my trading day ~ monday 10th january 2011
Good morning and welcome to a new week. Together with 4 friends (non-traders) we have organised a few days away in Germany, taking our respective cars to the famous racing circuit ‘Nurburgring’ or ‘Nordschleife’ as it’s more commonly known. I am a customer of Manthey Motors, so we have some exclusive time on the racing circuit thanks to a few phone calls last week.
The plan is to drive over there today via the Channel Tunnel and get to the hotel early evening. I have my laptop with me, so I will be trading my “Evening” system if we arrive by 5pm, which is easily achievable.
We are off now, so I will update you later this evening.
Update 9:00pm. Got here late afternoon and I was able to switch my laptop on and used the Hotel’s wi-fi (instead of using my Vodafone Dongle) and I started watching the S&P500 chart for my ‘Trade With A Day Job’ system just after 5:30PM ( a bit later than usual)
The first trade of the evening was triggered just after 6pm and that resulted in a small loss (-13 pips) and then a 2nd one was entered a few moments after 7pm. That one ended by covering the first trade loss plus another +20 pips on top by 8:30pm.
Happy with my earnings today while away on a ‘Jolly’ !
