The U.S. is opening and we got a moron. Who hired his moron buddies. Who in the phuck can trust a moron, snorting lysol. With their life? If you were skeptical, you were being generous. If in the cult, assume the position. Darwinism has you covered. Keystone cops on acid running the U.S. https://www.theatlantic.com/health/a...-texas/611935/
Wow! read the article, what a mess, some would said "the tests are beautiful and they are doing a tremendous work"
Good luck !

As a learner, I am super happy with today's performance. Probably my best day so far in these 4 months. Picked all three moves almost perfectly (even posted charts). The most the market went against any trade was around 6 pips. And got an average of 20 pips on each of my 3 trades. And a few tiny scalps. Had 2-3 losers that I cut within 3-4 pips. Learning to accept losses when I am wrong instead of waiting for the market to rescue me!

Cheers

The thing is though did you do anything differently today
Otherwise - it was a random even

Could be random but I have had consistent improvement in performance and a part from Monday, I haven't had a red day in almost 2- 3 weeks. As I perfect my strategy, I have definitely felt a jump in performance.

Have also read a book on trading psychology (Trading In The Zone) and a few podcasts on the same topic. So it all seems to be coming together nicely I feel.

For anyone interested in market correlations this is a helpful tool (posted the link for the 30day correlations but there's a link at the top for longer term correlations)… These are futures contracts though so rather than Eur/Usd it will simply be Euro (EU strength/weakness) or Usd (Dx contract). There are the majors listed though on currencies so I thought some might be interested (Free tool) :
