Final words as I go to bed. Basically, I interpreted weekend gap as bullish. Now, it won't surprise me if this move is the bottom today but due to over-committing my hands are now tied w.r.t. to risk. February not so great for me so far, which I think is down to FOMO and over-confidence given (totally OK despite returns coming from single event) January. It will also take getting used to trade ~1.3% risk/trade on 75k account as I'm now doing. Admit to being slightly traumatized by losing $1000 in minutes (though that's something I should be avoiding anyway).
Buy India 50 x 10 @ 12044 stop 11984 Looking decent for bullish tomorrow. Missed out on US market open today due to external circumstances or I might have traded NQ. On some consulting work tomorrow so I bet it will be the best trading day of the week and I will miss it.
Uh shit, Powell will be speaking today. I might close positions before then as I don't fancy taking on that kind of potential volatility without sitting in front of screen.
Buy JP225 x 3 @ 23701 stop 23647 Doubled position in JP225, while Japan is closed for trading today I'm guessing positive Asia session will reflect in futures prices, and I need to go to sleep, hence no HK33 positions.
Close US2000 +1019 Sitting on about 2400 of unrealized profit after this in India 50, Nikkei 225 and copper, will try to hold until later today.
Actually, second thought, opened new US2000USD trade of same size with very tight stop @ 1673.6 instead; EU session might start positive and I have a habit of closing out when I should let winners run.
Closed all since Powell is on today, +2500 or something, don't have time to count now. (US2000 reopened was stopped early in morning and not included)
Buy NAS100USD x 22 @ 9510 stop 9468 Didn't have much time today and not now with GF pissed off, anyway buying NQ without following up too much on what happened today.
