Out of curiosity, why did you pull the plug so to speak on this one?
Notoriously slow moving pair?
I do not like what iām seeing in the broader risk marketsā¦so eur/gbp closed out at 11 pips profit
Cool Just wondering. It looks like it could have worked itself into a peach of a trade.

Oh that was you MT! to be honest, i didnāt even read that when i posted things up. iām scalping the S&P futs right nowā¦ while monitoring a swing trade in the DX futuresā¦while tryihnjg to keep the same positions in my main forex sot accountā¦etā¦etcā¦
so, just putting up my trades here in āAMLOSTā realtime is as good as i can manage.
Iāll vei u a better analysis in a bit. butā¦ hmmā¦yaā¦i gues u could sayā¦i was distracted? loll. and didnāt want to take ANY chances this time of year

UPDATE TO PROGRESS:
Ok, so here is a blow by blow for each day this week, since Iāve been neglecting giveing totals and such this week:
Monday - 1.31% down, updated balance was $1054.29
Tuesday - 0.21% up, new balance was $1056.50
[B]wednesday - 0.521% up, CURRENT BALANCE IS: $1062.00[/B]
Soā¦ all things consideredā¦just down a bit so far. I MAY take a trade or two todayā¦ but thatās gonna be it.
I will give my thoughts on what I think is setting up for tonightā¦ I donāt want to make this a straight up trade log, and so far, thatās what it seems to be becoming.
Time to get more info out thereā¦for myself to reflect on an you to observe.

Hi Jay
Out of curiosity, are you taking the same trades on your main Forex account as you do here?
Or is your main account a futures account, I think I read somewhere that you are into futures as well.
Anyway, keep it up, I pop over here from time to time when Iām free, so I only ever look at the last page when I do.
Sorry if the questions are a rehash of something that has been already asked in this thread.
long on eur/gbp at 8404. already filled
stop 34 pips
target 40 pipsā¦taking 75% off
2nd target 60 pips. last 25% off.
risking 0.35%
my main is futuresā¦many of them i take similar entriesā¦but i donāt take similar exits. basically, if I have a long bias in one, I have it in the otherā¦but specific entry points will vary, and exits even more so.
I scalp futures. I take longer moves (ideally anyway) in spot. so, itās two different trading styles.

Well, trading is often related to sports and competition. So, what does every boxer for instance before he is going into the fight? What would even Bruce Lee do before going into a fight? Or even going into a training session? What do all sportsmen at start?
P.S.: Sorry Judith, there was no substitution for sportsMEN, afaik, lol.
