Buy NAS100USD x 17 @ 7840 stop 7814 Buy WTICOUSD x 800 @ 59.07 stop 58.7 Might we see a new positive day given hope clinging trade delegation being alive? Ofc. die hard chartists probably see this as a peak, but screw that. Oil is just a minor bet for continuing interest later in the day due to Aramco board members opinions on damage.
Closed for +100 in total (WTI was -200), need to sleep and I'm too tense. Better reopen before US open. Also noted WTI position size was inconsistent vs previously, overconfidence striking again.
Crap, XAG/XCU moved a lot today before I got to enter it. Now I am a bit hesitant since it may decide to mean revert in near term.
Closed NQ partial martingale algo for +489 since start, a lot of that had been realized already though as it cuts down into small leverages over weekends. I would rather be in control in October rather than auto-buy dips now.
Closed CAD/CNH algo for a grand total of... +$19 Basically, CNH isn't going anywhere in a way that would assure me. Meanwhile, I've reached the conclusion China might not want their currency much lower after all (oil imports). At this point I prefer to be in cash and respond to whatever will happen next.
Buy HK33HKD x 20 @ 26294 stop 26234 Already lost 120 on same sized long a few mins earlier. Will quit for tonight if this one doesn't work. Edit: Nope, -150. Also one of those days where automation to place simple orders would help as typing the stops takes too long. Would like to leave a 10 unit order with wider stop but screw it, going to bed.
