T 10-43 Cable, and now we hit the 00 which Claudia pointed out yesterday.
Should be a fun afternoon with NFP and all the Fed speakers later on. This is a U/CAD type of afternoon to me.

Now there's a chart ! Shame had the range too low would've been a winner. Maybe.

Billy has repped the 08:00 bar and I must admit, out of boredom I went in on the high break - against my better judgement. Failed. Now I'm stuck in a trade and stuck looking to wrangle my way out.

Fair enough, the reverse break came good.

Boredom can get you into trouble, lol.

Seemed a good idea at the time. Thought I was moving up in the trading world. But after a few trials on various software platforms, making a mess of most of them, then reading in more detail - I think I will stay where I am. I had my senior moment -but I feel better now.

UK100 in full sucker-move mode. Hope nobody got their fingers burned. The DAX looks at first sight as if it is doing the same but actually it has just flicked its tail and is more about indecision. Flick between the 2-min and the H1 to see what I mean.
It climbed nicely from 8 am, even FTSE was a charmer despite both flicking their tails at the start. ( I refer to the 8 am to 10 am UK period).

I got caught up in Billy's yard but that was fine. It's Friday and I'm going to be bailing now anyway.

Was that a "Wick Zone" ( short) trade that saved your bacon?

Have a good weekend.
I am cleaning all Futures related stuff from my PC and, now I feel better, resolving to stick to basic trading ( lines) and spread betting.

In normal circumstances I would of Longed the 08-00 High Break and if it failed Trade it good.
BUT today we had the inside bar on the 4 hour. This kept me from going Long due to the ib low being triggered..

No, T. The body of the candle was too small and so I just played it straight billy-style.

Never listen to me lol. NFP to me is a typical orders both way but can be a real pain closing positions and spread is silly.

U/Cad did good.

Got a 7 bet accumulator on at Newcastle later with Sky. Small stake and it looks like favourites all the way.

''BB'' is the Billy-Bar.

1 is the failed long break.

2 is the short entry.

There may have been some shenanigans in between 1 and 2 but I refuse to answer on the grounds that I may incriminate myself

Playing on the US30 to end the day. 1-min momo-scalps.

+15 and change so far.

I feel the draw of a brew coming, so it remains to be seen how long I go on for.

1: +15
2: +6.4
3: +15

It's becoming quite lucrative, playing the US30 at this time.

I ended the day with +3.8 pts, so happy enough.
