Trading Diary ~ Tuesday 9th October 2012
9:10am ~ I was up quite early this morning, couldn’t sleep for some reason. Cannot be jet-leg that’s for sure… After getting in from Stansted very late last night, I was down here in the kitchen at 6:30am and I switched on a laptop soon after to look for any trendFX or Any-Time System trade opportunities on a few of my favourite charts.
At 7 o’clock I spotted a set-up on my GOLD chart and a few minutes later I was in a short trade. While that was slowly going down I got into another short trade, this time on my S&P500 chart just after 8am. This trade shot down very quickly and I came out after a short while with +20 pips. My GOLD trade was aborted a few minutes ago with a profit of +48 pips.
Off for a cycle now (10 miles) then lunch at Café Rouge with a friend. More mucking about with the digger this afternoon, this time in next door’s garden. I will report back regarding my evening trading session - although I’ve got a meeting at 8pm so it will just be a short trading session.
7:45pm ~ I got into the study a bit later than usual – at 6pm – and got into a short trade with my “Evening” system just on 7pm which was stopped out with a 20 pip loss just before 7:30pm. I’ve no time to look for any other possible trades to make up for the loss tonight as I have to be out in 5 minutes.
In the Trade With A Day Job system manual I show you how to recoup your losses if you have a losing trade during the evening trading session – this is one reason why the system has been so profitable over the past 12 years – there are other reasons but you’ll have to email me to find them out.
Daily Target Reached ? YES (+48 pips) I traded for 2hrs this morning plus 90 mins this evening
