    No good down momentum = no good trade, so bailed break-even.

  7. Random sideways drift, lots of money laying on the floor just waiting for someone to pick it up 4th -6th. Stay out of the drift. You coulda shoulda earlier in the week.

    This week so far is not too bad, but today indeed is a lot of sideways creep with not enough momentum for decent trades.

    Hopefully the next week markets truly wake up from holidays, especially having NFP report cleared out too.

  9. If you are trading real money....you would have to be the broker's pin up boy....until you go broke paying commissions...

    Have you considered widening your parameters?....and what type of parameters are you using....is this essentially 'scalp trades'...?

    Edit:...you might find Fridays the most difficult day to trade (GMT time)....

    I use Oanda, so no commissions to pay and it allows to play very tight. :)
