9:00am.     I was up bright and early this morning, and had a cycle to the paper shop at 6 o’clock to collect some of the morning’s newspapers – and was back here in my study at 7 o’clock with some coffee and toast. I also had my screens turned on so as I could watch for any signals that might pop-up with the trendFX system. My 1st one started showing around the time I got the charts up (EUR/USD) and it eventually triggered at 07:32am when I entered the trade. A second signal triggered a few minutes later (Brent Oil) so by 7:35 I was in 2 trades. My EUR/USD trade meandered up quite slowly and at 07:51 I was happy with the +32 pips it had managed so far, so I closed off there. My Brent trade faired better and dead on 8 o’clock I closed that one off at +65 pips, so a total of +97 pips for the morning.

I will report back later, I am off shortly to West London to pick up my new motorbike.

6:45pm.    I got back here in enough time to have my S&P500 chart set-up in the kitchen by 5 o’clock to watch for any trade signals with my “Trade With A Day Job” system. As is quite usual, I had a signal a few minutes after 5pm and at 5:05 I was in a trade. It hit its target with too much fuss quite quickly but I stayed in until a quarter past six and came out with +43 pips.  Off to the pub now for a few pints with some friends….

Daily Target Reached ?  YES (+140 pips)     I traded both this morning and evening.
