Trading Diary ~ Thursday 8th August 2013
08:50am ~ I have quite a lazy day today, there are some old friends visiting this morning and later on this afternoon I’m taking my youngest son Go-Karting as a birthday treat. Before that I have three Skype calls with budding traders in the next hour.
The day here has started off very sunny so it’s far too nice to sit inside today watching charts and listening to Bloomberg.
18:05pm ~ We’ve just got back from Go-Karting so I am going to sit down for a few hours and see if I can see any trade set-ups on my “evening” system (and any of the other strategies of mine I use)
19:15pm ~ It’s turned out to be a busy evening on the markets, at this moment in time I am currently in a Gold trade (long) and also a “Trade With A Day Job” position on the S&P500. There is also a possible trade coming up on the Brent Oil chart (Any-Time UTB stratgy)
20:55pm ~ I am now out of all my trades, my Gold trade came out at +28 pips, the S&P500 position was a break-even situation and I did end up having a trade on Brent Oil as well (+44 pips) My score for the month so far is +504 pips.
Daily Target Reached ? YES (+72 pips) I just traded the evening session
