My Trading Day ~ Wednesday 29th June 2011
I was up much earlier this morning, I want to do a bit of trading before I head of to Reading/Windsor to move my eldest son (Max) back home as he has now finished at Reading University.
I sat down at the desk in my study at 6am and 10 minutes later I had 2 screens on watching for trade signals on my new trendFX system. A few minutes later I could see a potential pattern developing and at 6:36am I was in a long trade with one of the FOUR STRATEGIES in the system. While I was watching the first chart, I also noticed another trade developing and at exactly 7:30am I was in my 2nd trade with this day-trading system. Over the next half an hour my first trade was doing as I had expected and at 7 minutes past 8 o’clock I closed the trade off at +21 pips. As I was very happy with my profit so far, I also closed off the second trade as it was nicely in profit. This meant I could get on with a few emails plus other chores before I go off to Berkshire to pick Max up. I will report back later if I manage to do any trading this evening
Update 8pm – I got back here to Southwold at 4:15pm and settled down in the kitchen with a laptop to start looking for trade signals with my ‘Evening’ system at 5 o’clock. Very quickly I was in a trade (within 10 minutes) and this first trade was stopped out fairly quickly (minus 14 pips) and I got into a 2nd trade just after 6pm. This one faired much better and I closed it off just before 8 o’clock with +50 pips, meaning overall earnings for the evening of +36 pips and a good overall profit for the day, even though I was on motorways for most of the day !! Off to the Swan now for some supper.
Daily Target Reached ? YES (+72 pips) I traded early morning and also this evening
