09:15am  ~  More sorting out builders & planning officers today up the road plus a bit of admin work and Skype calls for an hour or so this morning. I will sit down for a few hours this evening to do some trading although we’re off out to the cinema with friends so I will not be trading right upto the U.S. session close. Also a reminder that we have a short trading week as it’s a bank holiday in the USA tomorrow (4th July) and then they have the Non-Farm-Payrolls announcement on Friday – both these will affect the markets.

17:35pm  ~ I’ve been watching my charts for the past half an hour and so far I’m not in a trade yet, although there looks like a possible ‘short’ opportunity on the Gold chart with one of the trendFX strategies.

19:45pm  ~  I did end up having a ‘short’ trade on Gold earlier, but I’ve had to cut the position off prematurely as we’re off out now. The trade ended up with a small profit of +31 pips and so far there’s been no trades with my “Trade With A Day Job” system although there is still over an hour left of the evening session.

Daily Target Reached ?  YES (+31 pips)    I traded for nearly three hours this evening.
