Trading Diary ~ Thursday 7th February 2013
9:05am (CET) ~ Update on trading last night - I did not have any further trades after my last blog post at 8:45pm, so yesterday’s profit of 39 pips stays as it is. This morning I’ve been watching my charts for the past 15 minutes and I have my eye on a possible EUR/USD ’long’ trade set-up that’s shown up on my screen. While that’s going on, I have two Skype calls with people in Australia wanting more info on my trading education plus some info emails to customers. Before lunch I’m going on a quick cycle ride for an hour or so then after lunch I’m back down to Alicante to pick up my new car.
22:00 (CET) ~ I have just out of my 2nd trade of the “evening” trading session as I write this. Going back a while, my 1st entry into the S&P500 was soon after I turned this laptop on just after 18:30. This trade was stopped out fairly soon at -12 pips, and the next set-up came just over an hour later, and I managed +35 pips giving me 23 pips for this session.
Retiring now as I have 6 o’clock start tomorrow morning, going down to Casa La Pedrera for a day of Quad-Biking with a group of friends – a two hour drive from here.
Incidentally – my trade this morning gave me +31 pips……..
Daily Target Reached ? YES (+54 pips) I trade for a few hours this morning plus the evening session.
