Taking a break rest of today, market isn't ideally trendy for the way I trade today, though I wouldn't be surprised if we end notably lower (bulls are crowded atm). Nice to end with account marginally higher than this midnight.
Sell NAS100USD x -18 @ 9618 stop 9634 AFK position, I promise. Like WTF NQ is again near HOD. Less profits = good
Close +254 On a side note, gold has been trending in a far nicer way today. And on longer time frame than intraday, if it keeps above 1600 I'll consider jumping on.
Found a decent use for price triggered orders, place 1 unit sentry orders as price level triggers (which my CFD provider's trade app lacks) resulting in audio alerts. Only issue is polluting my trade stats a bit.
USD/SEK +0.93% so fairly positive day for me anyway. Yay for crap home currencies... Edit: Side note, had a perfect chance to buy the second bounce in NQ off LOD but went "nah, my bias is short today". All in all, basically was at keyboard at all important turning points today, yet I only managed one decent trade. Fear of pulling trigger on unexpected setups remains strong for me. At this point waiting for LOD to be breached but it looks pretty distant now.
Thinking early positive Euro session so Would have been better to get up at 2 am since I can't sleep anyway and trade HK session, but GG Buy Europe 50 x 47 @ 3856 stop 3837 Buy Europe 50 x 47 @ 3856 stop 3847 Sell US30YB x -1710 @ 163.22 stop 163.62 (insane margin req)
