18:30 (CET)  ~  I have had a day on my motorbike – it’s been quite sunny so perfect on the roads. I went down to Cartagena on the ‘coast’ road rather than the motorway, around 200kms each way.  I’m back now in the kitchen in front of this laptop trading my “evening” system, and in a ‘long’ position on the S&P500 – although I am still at ‘break-even’ with the trade, so no where near my 20 pip target yet.

20:50 (CET)  ~  My earlier trade went ok and eventually got upto the 20 pip target.   Then around 30 minutes ago, I got into a 2nd trade, another ‘long’ one on the S&P500, and that gave me 20 pips as well.  Normally I would not get into a second trade if the first one one went ok, but this second set-up was actually signals from two separate strategies of mine, so made it such a good opportunity (which it ended up being).    Going to cook supper for some friends who’ve just arrived and some poker afterwards.

So far this week my trading profits are up to +258 pips

Daily Target Reached ?  YES (+40 pips)       I traded for just under 3hrs this evening
