Nick’s Trading Diary – Tuesday 8th January 2019
Back in the office this morning with a goal of getting through my inbox today and reply to all remaining messages – plus watch my collection of favourite charts as well from time to time. Any trades I take will be detailed below.
08:55am: Nothing report yet.
09:40am: I have just taken a ‘short’ position on my 15-min GOLD chart. It’s a Master-The-Trend Strategy-A set-up and my stop loss is just 8 pips.
10:20am: I’m now also in a ‘long’ position on the UK FTSE-100. It is a Master-The-Trend Strategy-B pattern with a 9 pip stop loss (15-min timeframe)
11:10am: Nothing to report so far – going out for a 45-min run.
12:05pm: Just taken a profit from my FTSE position (+32 pips) is the candles are starting to suggest a move down. My GOLD trade is still trundling along without a great deal of success yet.
13:55pm: The GOLD price has eventually come down so I have grabbed a small profit before I go off for a late lunch. The position has given me +25 pips.
15:00pm: Forgot to mention, my trading for the day finished with the closing of the GOLD position as my total amassed pips reached +57 pips which is adequate for a day’s profit.
