07:55am   ~   The builders have gone so it’s going to be a nice quiet day at home for me, except for a cycle ride this morning. I will report back later if I manage to do any trading. The markets in Europe yesterday proved resilient and reached towards new highs and the Dow [...]

06:55am  ~  An early start for me today as I have the builders in again all of today and they’re arriving in 5 minutes expecting tea.

08:55am  ~  I was not around at all yesterday as there was a family emergency, but back to normal today hopefully – although as it’s the first Friday of the month it means it’s also Non Farm Payrolls day so I shall not be trading. As I’ve mentioned before, the markets I generally trade will [...]

As it’s the end of another month, I have just had a glance at my trading accounts to see what I’ve achieved from the markets. In total I have managed 897 pips and of that total 371 pips came from my evening “Trade With A Day Job” system and the other 526 pips were from [...]
