My Trading Day ~ Tuesday 14th June 2011

After a very busy day yesterday, I surprised myself by feeling bright as a button at 6 o’clock before the alarm was due to go off at 7:00am !

I wet for a nice walk along the beach to pick up a couple of papers and some croissants for breakfast, and I was back here in the kitchen with 2 laptops open 7 ready at 7:30 – watching for trades with my new trendFX strategies.

My first trade kicked off at 7:47am, a long trade with the EUR/USD forex pair and exactly 20 minutes later I shut the trade off at my target of +20 pips. My 2nd trade signal gave me a trade that started at 8:02am, and just after I closed my first trade off I noted that this trade was advancing a lot slower and had reached +9 pips, so, as I was happy with my first profit, I stopped this one off as well. This gave me an overall profit for the morning session of +29 pips, which I was more than happy with. I have many emails to catch-up on, so I will be concentrating on these all morning, followed by a cycle ride after lunch. I will report back later if I have any trades with my “Evening” trading system.

Update 6:50pm: I got back here a bit later than I imagined and did not sit down until 6 o’clock to watch for trades with my “Trade With A Day Job” system, and I entered my first (and only) trade 10 minutes later. It was a ‘Long’ trade and lasted for 30 minutes and gave me +22 pips

Daily Target Reached ?  YES ( +51 pips) I traded for 40 minutes this morning and another 40 minutes this evening
