my trading day ~ thursday 10th june 2010

Hello to all of you.

Still no exercise allowed, so I was up at 7am, and ready at my screens in my home office just before 8am, watching out for trades with my Any-Time system.

My first signal came up and the trade was entered at 8:08 on the EUR/USD and that ended being stopped out with a loss of  -20 pips. The next trade signal (on the Daily S&P500 index) came up just before 9am, and I actually entered the trade at 8:51am,  and that went on to make +40 pips within an hour. In the meantime, there was another trade signal on the EUR/USD – and I entered that trade just after 9:15 and within half an hour I closed it off for another +40 pips profit. My total for the few hours trading this morning came out at +60 pips.

I had exceeded my daily target (+25 pips) well before 10am, so I spent the rest of the day reading, a pastime I enjoy immensely, but do not always find time to devote to it. The book I chose was  Jesse Livermore’s Reminiscences Of A Stock Operator. I have read it many times, but I always get something more out of it each time I read it. If you would like a copy, I have it as an eBook as well – just email me and I will happily send you over a copy.

I was back in the office at 5pm to trade my “Evening” system (Trade With A Day Job) and I had 2 trades with that strategy, and came out with a profit of +41 pips for the evening, so my total for the day was a nice +101 pips, well over my daily target, but this does happen if I have a couple of trades running simultaneously as I do not know the outcome until they reach their target or get stopped out – if you see what I mean ?
