9:15am ~  Just got up and I’m down in the kitchen with a coffee. I have a nice easy day today – bit of emailing this morning plus 5 Skype calls with people interested in my trading education.  This afternoon it’s shopping and packing as I am off to Spain for a long weekend break this evening, but I will try to have a look at the charts later this afternoon to see if the markets have calmed down enough to trade the S&P500.

I always recommend not to trade on the first Friday of the month as it is Non Farm Payroll Day (U.S. employment figures) but over the last 6 months I’ve been watching the market on this particular day of the month, and I believe that trading can be safe if certain criteria are met. Please email me for more details. I will report back later if there is anything going on in the markets for me.

8:05pm ~ I have a good example of trading on the move tonight. In days gone by, to trade the markets effectively you needed to be sat at your desktop computer – but now all you need is a tablet computer and some apps. I opened a couple of S&P500 trades earlier this evening while at home – and while travelling here to the airport, I closed both of them off a short while ago using my iPad (don’t be alarmed – I was a passenger in the car, no the driver !!) The trades were from two of my systems and I managed 51 pips from the first trade and 31 pips from the second.

The first week’s trading for October has been quite profitable, no losing days again and +258 pips into my account. To emulate my trading, just email me HERE and I’ll show you how you can do it…..

Daily Target Reached Today ?  YES (+82 pips)    I traded for two hours on and off this evening
