No trading for me this morning, 8am ’til midday was taken up with meetings that came along as a consequence of yesterday’s trip to Norfolk. This afternoon was spent doing an enormous food shop (I usually do it on the internet & have it delivered) and after this afternoon’s ‘Bun-Fight’ I am going back to internet shopping – it was horrible in my local Sainsburys.

Eventually I did sit down with my laptop at Ted’s house (my gardener) at 5pm to watch for trades on my “Evening” system (Trade With A Day Job) and just before 6pm a potential signal did pop up. I was in the trade at 6pm but was stopped out a short while later (-14 pips). My 2nd trade came up just after 8:30pm and gave me +10 pips, so all in all, I came away from the evening session with a -4 pip score.  At 9:30pm Ted took myself and our 2 girlfriends out for a late supper at Cafe Rouge as he had experienced a successful day on the markets, and felt some celebrations were in order. He has come on so well with his trading since last year, he is now consistently profitable EVERY week.

Daily Trade Target Reached ? NO (-4 pips) I just traded the evening session.
