Back trading today after a short break away – any trades I take will be detailed below:

10:55am:   I am now in front of my screens for the day after helping a friend out this morning – nothing to report so far on my collection of 8 favourite charts.

12:05pm:   Nothing to report so far regarding trades.

12:55pm:   I have just taken a ‘short’ position on my Brent Crude 15-min chart, it’s  a Master-The-Trend Strategy-B set-up with an 18 pip stop loss.

13:35pm:    Not sure how much longer I will stay in the position as I am having to watch it carefully as the price is so volatile at the moment. Plus I want to go out to lunch !

15:20pm:  Every so often you’ll be a in position that just keeps on going in the direction that you first guessed and the trade ends up being a big winner. This has occurred today as my Brent position has just been closed at +279 pips.  I had intended to close it off a while ago but every time I looked at the screen the price had dropped another 20 pips so I ended up just watch non stop in the last 15 minutes which is something I do not like doing !  It was worth doing it this time !

Needless to say I am happy with my score so far today so the screens ARE being switched off now.  With today’s score, my monthly accumulated profit is +544 pips.
