I have been trading FX for a few years now. I'd like to start a journal, mostly for feedback hoping there are more professionals here then at some other forums that trade more then FX.

I don't know how I will do with this, but we'll give it a shot. I'll try to get a few trades a week in.

So I try and trade swings and the occasional intraday punt.

I am not a pro trader, and I am trying to improve. I'd like to eventually get into FX exotic options and equities when/If I get the bread.

I'll discuss my trades as they setup up. I'll have an entry and stop and somewhat of a target but that's the most discretionary aspect.

Identifying a good opportunity and managing risk is the main priority.

Mixed crap on ECB and Draghi.

Just heard this:

BBG *CHINA PREPARED TO SPEND 100B YUAN TO SUPPORT STOCKS: STANDARD

?? That seems risk positive.

Looking forward to China data this week...

going into europe, I am seeing some negative articals from the Tele and FT on eurozone breakup... sentiment may turn a bit sour, looks like the fade was a good play, we'll see.

us futures ticking down a bit now.

most likely going for 0600+ on AUD/USD aussie again tonight.

will also be watching CHF/JPY later.

EUR/USD showing signs of some selling up here. Any rally should be met with SNB selling EUR/USD on diversification.
