Trading Diary ~ Friday 7th December 2012
11:25am ~ As you are probably aware, today is ‘Non Farm Payroll’ announcement day in the U.S. so the markets are fairly dead for most of our morning European session, and then it goes mad at 2:30pm (CET time) so there’s no point in trading in my opinion. Nobody really knows which way the markets are going to go once the employment figures are released, so it is akin to gambling – do you bet on red or black ? That’s what it comes down to.
My day has been spent shopping at Carrefour this morning, and then a trip into Calpe for some lunch and then a long walk along the beach this afternoon.
