7:40am  ~  We got back to the UK just six hours ago, and even though I still feel completely knackered from the weekend away I am now in the study watching a few charts and reading this morning’s papers. No doubt I will start to wilt early evening.  I can see a trade opportunity possibly setting up on my GOLD chart, so I will report back soon with any exciting news.

9:00am  ~  It now transpires that I am in two trades, one is the previously mentioned GOLD trade (above) and I am also in a ‘long’ Brent Oil position. They’re doing ok at the moment so I will let them run while I try to sort out why our website is not working properly and my emails are also not working.

17:30pm  ~  I’ve just sat down here in the kitchen with this laptop to watch for any possible trades with my “Trade With A Day Job” evening system after being out all afternoon on my bike. I will report back later with any trading news.

19:45pm  ~  I’ve just come out of my only “evening” trade of the session. It kicked off just after 6 o’clock and I managed a profit of +82 pips.  My earlier morning trades came in at +104 pips (Gold trade) and +105 pips (Brent Oil trade)

Off for a quick bit of supper up the road at The Plough now — then an early night.

Daily Target Reached ?   YES (+291 pips)      I traded for 3 hours this morning plus 2 hours this evening
