Nick’s Trading Diary – Tuesday 23rd October 2018
My plan today is to be in the office for most of the day watching my favourite charts and also catching up on emails that have come in since I have been away. Any trades I take will be detailed below.
08:25am: Nothing to report so far on the 8 charts I regularly watch.
09:05am: I have just taken a ‘short’ position on my UK FTSE-100 30-min chart, it’s a Master-The-Trend Strategy-B set-up with a whopping 20 pip (!) stop loss.
10:35am: Just closed my FTSE position and taken a quick 24 pip profit.
11:00am: There’s not much to be excited about on my charts at the moment so off for a cycle ride.
13:40pm: Back from lunch and nothing to report.
14:05pm: I am now in my second Master-The-Trend trade of the day – it’s also a Strategy-A pattern but this time on the UK Brent Crude chart (30-min timeframe) The stop loss is 28 pips, not unusual for this timeframe.
14:30pm: I’ve taken a quick profit from my Brent position as I really need to get back home and check on the building work. Probably not going to come back today so screens off and my score for the session is +52 pips.
