Can't get into the risk taking mood today, been out but had Ipad with me so no real excuse made 1 trade this am, went sideways threatening to break either way, exited the trade literally 3 seconds before it blipped to a new high and ran 20pips ish TIRED and old, must trade tomorrow for sure!!
DAX is going down, took a trend trade and guess what =-15 at the moment, trend trades HATE me, SL is nearing In at 9170 then 9175 SL 9185 ( 2 pip spread ), can 9180 be sold into. Profit if Lose, atleast I took 1 with, could do with a trend trade that works I live take like the 80% area that work all the time doh!! -9 getting there but might be in soft exit time already
Worked out errrrmmmm okay, not a great catch but better than a loss I was expecting +2 +7 = +8 today baby yeah! Going lower to tease me, ohhhh drattys is she dumping like a dumper I'd of bailed at 50 for +20 +25 +45, less than 2mins later LOL LOL and LOL someone is having a laugh at me here twice today!!
Still able to function and took a trend trade, advantage is odds are they'll go wild in your favour, like it is currently. +70 or +80 here madness is getting more and more common isn't it!! Staying out, can't risk account when madness happens, well over the $1000 here on 1 trade, 6 - 7 mins later sob! sob!
Wish I'd of kept playing, some nice setups being long pauses that reversed nicely. Setup trading system to always have 20pip SL, might tighten but won't grow it, so a drop straight through -20 I can live with. 2nd position puts me 4% loss area currently, I rarely let it go to the SL thankfully, 2 or 3 in the row would SUCK but hey chance you got to take.
I was worried my ranges had lost there strength :- Okay it's not a loss less system any more but still pretty damn good, DAX did move out of spec a few times, 4 in total. Can't believe I closed my short as the market tested the low that'd been rejected a fair few times for it just to keep drifting 3seconds after I dumped it, okay likely only taken +15*2 but that woulda made my entire day!! Trading tomorrow, Lucozade drink to wake me up by the bed and getting an early night!! GO HARD GO HARD!!
Got to have a Stop which kinda has meaning, not just a 30fixed pips away, it's got to be in my case out side of the expected range, market breaks out of that then something is going wrong. I rarely get SL's, normally stupid trade that last sub 1min, better than holding for the ass kicking that normally follows LOL
Lazy am / lack of confidence and not great setups, but just took +9 on a DAX short, it shall do, next!!
Holding a DAX long at 71, looking rough, 26 downtrend, 100uptrend and big news in 17mins, decisions decisions. Hang on, going up a tad, 74 to break for a up blip failed 15mins left, bad time to trade!
