14 nov eur session longed eurusd @320pm Shorted gold @405pm longed dax @410pm longed eurex btp @425pm hmmm. suddenly many futures started to wake up. my stops and target profit all set. now for teabreak.
14 nov US session my position eurusd profit : few tens of ticks +ve. good gold profit : +ve. good dax profit : zero. good. trend started many hours ago. so position flattened. eurex btp : few ticks +ve. good longed copper @ 900pm, reversal up profit : zero. good shorted russell @910am profit : zero. position flattened before PPI news shorted gold @ 945pm signal missed long gold @430pm, reversal up short RB gasoline hmmmm. still wondering how people trade RB. they are either spreaders, algo traders, fundamentalers, or they trade blind folded with huge stop loss.
15 nov Asian session sigh ... yesterday slept far too early. hog, copper, cattle, crude oil, HO, RB gas were down. Perhaps big boys already decided what to do before news (eg inventory , supply/demand news) were out. or perhaps big boys already knew about Supply demand data. anyway, not important to know all these. just pull trigger when there is signal. HKF started Iron ore trading. iron ore futures day range fantastic (4%). well. let's see how is the volume. SGX iron ore volume is not that great hmmm. Audusd trying to move? audusd usually doesn't move shorted audusd @840am. a little risky because its retracement pattern is not that clear
cont ... longed gold @ 920am shorted copper @930am. reduced quantity missed shorting copper @925am. hmmm. something happening to US index futures. nowadays US index futures is more tradable outside US session.
15 nov europe session longed gbpusd @300pm shorted dax @325pm profit : zero. just realised dax might not be lead. signal missed : short US index futures @900am gold, jpy, copper, energy futures appear to be sleeping. will not disturb them. but have to be alert because they might wake up suddenly
cont ... gbpusd profit : good bund profit : zero. position flattened. not worth the risk as trend started very long ago.
