Trading Diary ~ Tuesday 6th August 2013
09:05am ~ I’ve a busy morning here, a load of meetings with various builders/tradesmen and also four Skype calls. After lunch I’m going to sit down and carry on with emails and also watch a few charts. The builders are in for a few days banging and crashing around so my slight hangover from last night’s late night at the Lord Nelson is not going to get better quickly
13:30pm ~ I’ve just sat down here in the study to get on with some emails and also watch my MT4 platform for possible trade set-ups with my “Any-Time & “trendFX” systems. I’m also going to stay around into the evening and trade the “Trade With A Day Job” strategy as well, that kicks off at 5pm and goes onto the end of the U.S. trading session.
19:15pm ~ I’ve had an eventful session of trading – kicking off with a ‘short’ trade on my S&P500 chart just after 2pm with a trade from my “Any-Time” collection of strategies. That resulted in a profit of +81 pips and shortly after that was closed off I then got into a “Trade With A Day Job” position on the same chart. That trade came out at +25 pips when it ended a short while ago – and I have also completed some trials this afternoon regarding my new S&P trading system that’s due out in a few months time. I am now reluctantly going to a neighbour’s house for some supper.
My trading balance for August so far is standing at +350 pips.
Daily Target Reached ? YES (+106 pips) I traded this afternoon and early evening
