Wednesday 30th November 2011 ~ Public Sector Strike Day Today…
9:30am. Another lazy morning, and another lay-in !! I’ve just got up and come downstairs, so I’m going to have a bit of breakfast and then sit down in front of my screens and have an hours trading before lunch. I will report back later with my results.
In the news today, we have the UK public sector workers on strike – well a small percentage of them anyway. This usually means the roads are quieter and resturants are easier to get into !
12:00 midday. I sat down in front of my screens at 10:30 and within 10 minutes I could see a potential “trendFX” trade on the S&P500 index starting to develop. Just after 11am this turned into a proper trade signal and I got into the market with a long trade — and just after 11:30 I was out with a profit of +113 pips.
I’ve got 4 Skype calls to do after lunch with potential customers who want to know a bit more about my systems before they sign-up to my trading education. I will report back later with news of my “Evening” trading session.
9:15pm. I have just closed off my 2nd trade of the evening – with a profit of +90 pips. My 1st trade of the evening was stopped out at minus 18 pips, so I had an overall profit of +78 pips which when added to my morning’s efforts, gives me a decent daily earning today.
Daily Target Reached Today ? YES (+191 pips) I trade for an hour this morning plus 4 hours this evening – a really long day’s trading for me…..
