my trading day ~ monday 13th september 2010

An early start for me today, as I have decided to get back to trading a bit more during the day – as well as doing my “Evening” system after 5pm.

I was up and ready at 6:30am in my home office, watching the usual array of charts. It takes around 5 seconds to scan a chart for any trade signals, so it is not a taxing job really, as I only have to check each chart every 30 minutes or so.

I will be trading as I did before my sudden illness  -  ie: going for a daily target, and when that has been reached, I will pack-up for the day. This has the advantage of  NOT having to spend all day at the computers, as usually just one or two trades will get me to my daily target of +25 pips. I then have the rest of the day to do with as I please. If you also have a full-time job, you can work this “Any-Time” strategy of mine around your working life.

Anyway – back to this morning, a trade signal came along at 7am, and 30 seconds later I had entered a LONG trade on the EUR/USD Forex pair. Just 30 minutes later, I was out with a profit of +30 pips, well over my daily target. I am not sure of you were aware, but if you earn just 25 pips per day, for 20 days per month, you can double your account size every 2 months. Please email me if you would like more details of this calculation.

The rest of the morning was spent answering emails from prospective customers, and I had a nice lazy lunch at the Golf Course a few minutes up the road, followed by a quick 9 holes with a friend.

I also traded my evening system (Trade With A Day Job) after 5pm, and my trade tonight was entered at 7:15pm and I closed half the trade off after about 35 minutes (at +20 pips) and I left the rest on until 8:40pm (+42 pips)

All in all, a good day’s trading with a profit of over +70 pips – it’s nice to be back full-time trading. Well full-time for me anyway !!
