    flattened copper position with 1 tick profit.
    not confident of this trade as yesterday it was long blue candle.

    Ok. time for morning exercise and nice lunch.

    29 Sept European session

    shorted gbpusd 1.3445, 2pm

    longed Copper 146pm, 13444.
    since I missed 210pm, I have to trade with reduced quantity.

    signal missed : long copper at 210pm.
    I knew price would go up due to Londoners but failed to be alert.

    whole market might continue to sleep during US session.

    3 oct asian session


    shorted sgx simsci, 364.2, 9am
    profit : 20 ticks

    shorted gold 12720, 923am.
    profit : -10ticks

    now watching copper movement very closely.
    and audusd because big news coming up.


    comments about yesterday evening trade.
    missed lots of opportunity due to my negative emotion.
    for those who managed to catch it, they can easily earn 4 digits ( perhaps $5k to > $10 000 depending on lot size) yesterday
    Honestly speaking, there is at least one good signal in virtually all trading
    sessions.
    It is up to us to detect it, then pull the trigger to profit from it.
