my trading day ~ tuesday 5th april

I was back home here in Essex last night (Monday) by 11:45pm, and awake early to see a miserable day outside – not at all ‘Spring-Like‘ unfortunately, just dark skies and rain – and still dark at 6 o’clock….

I was showered and ready for some trading by 6:30am, so I settled in the kitchen with a couple of laptops. My 1st potential trade signal (with my “Any-Time” system) started to develop at 6:45am and I entered short one minute past 7 o’clock. This trade very quickly moved into profit and by 7:32am I closed it off with a +22 pips profit. That was going to be me done for the morning, but another potential trade signal had started at 7 o’clock and it triggered a short entry at 7:38, so I stayed in for a little while, even though I had enough points for the day. At 7:58 I came out of that 2nd trade with +13 pips, so all in all, I had a pleasing +35 pips for the short morning session.

I have a couple of properties to look at in London (reposessions from a ‘high street’ bank) so I will be off soon to have a look at them. I fancy living up there for a while, so that will be my next move once contracts are exchanged on this place. I have been offered them as the owners (and the bank) need to exchange & complete within the next 7 days, which I can do.

I should be back in time to trade my “Evening” system at 5pm this afternoon. I will report back then. In the meantime, email me if you would like to buy my “Any-Time” system for much less than the normal price.

Update 7:00pm – I sat down just after 5pm in my kitchen to trade my “Evening” system, and my first trade signal came up at 5:40pm and I was in  a long trade 10 minutes later. I was wary of a U.S. FED announcement at 7pm (UK time) so I came out of the trade 6 minutes before the announcement at break-even. I am off now for a meal at Frankie & Benny’s in town (10 minute walk) with a couple of trader friends.

Daily Target Reached ? YES (+35 pips)  35 pips this morning and zero this evening
