Hey Grant.
Looks like you are far from the only one there. I spend some extra time watching the charts this week and I think it scred the setups away. Oh well, better than jumping in to a trade that wasn't really there.

A big week next week maybe B-)

Evening,

was on call again today so only had the first couple of hours of London to trade. as Topher said in his journal i like him talked myself out of the long just after London open which in hindsight was a bad error.....

so an anti climatic week sees me having no trades at all....

as Kyle said above next week is gonna be massive... lol

good weekend

You have to let some go Grant.

At least that's what I am telling myself.

Have a great weekend.

evening everyone...

today can be summed up in several short phrases but i'll go with this one "EU range of 39 pips"........

nevertheless i did at least see a couple of set ups, neither of which played the game. So a small rent paid today but with the range as it is i am happy with how i traded....

1. -3.5
2. 0

Total -3.5 (-0.26%)

PDF attached

IT must surely get better tomorrow.... lol

evening,

just 1 trade today for 13 pips (1%) as work yet again got in the way.

have attached a pic rather than PDF. Exit was based on 1% at the weekly open line and being called out during the trade...

cheers

evening

I missed the London am session thanks to an over running night shift and the dentists chair so didnt get the slam dunk DA on EU m1. Well done to those who did..

Instead i watched the mind numbing NYO through to London close and didnt take a trade.

always tomorrow....

evening

I have trading the last couple of days tough, with EU staying in tight ranges whenever i have been sat at my PC.

Today was no different and am very happy with the result of the 2 trades i took.

1. -2
2. +10

Total +8 (0.61%)

PDF attached

These conditions sure try your P&D but they will change, hopefully sooner rather than later

cheers

evening

I'm glad this week is over.... Yet again today i was at the pc at the wrong time... lol

Sat down at LO and took the attached short trade just after for a small rent (-2 -0.15%). Spent the rest of day with the twins as its our last day of daddy day care as they start proper school hours from Monday. Thus missing the what looks like in hindsight some great trades.... sigh

So the week finished at +14 (+1.12%)

Have a great weekend everyone

Grant!

Well Done mate! this is fantastic trading. I did not see any of the m1's as worth trading for me for some reason. (rofl) Of course I stand corrected looking at your journal and Tophers splendid short trades. I took the UJ exactly where you took it but since I moved my SL too close, (below aims levels) I got stopped out. Today was NOT my day.. NEXT

Well done :)
