Real time trades by realjumper!!

gone long

Hanging on and hanging on for the LH which didn't come.
-38.9

taken 1/3 off and stop moved to b/e EDit: this pattern works well for me this week and my eurgbp short earlier this week was also based on this pattern

After a promising start, mister market decided not to play the game with me!!

I'll see if GJ wants to play nice. Buy GJ!

taken the trade out, will leave some for others

PA to +10 so SL to -10

SL to +10, so now my daily goal is locked in

And just like that....GJ kicked me out at +10!! That's ok though, I really wanted that +10 to add to my earlier +20 to achieve the daily target. I didn't want another BE trade and that was easily going to happen with this type of PA. So now it's coffee and guitar time, but if I see anything to swoop on, I will!!

gone short

might as well short this pair too

I have a Buy on GA but I won't hold it long. I'm not worried about waiting for the TP to be hit, I'll just take a few pips (hopefully) before bed time!

There we go...I'll take that +10 scalp.

Back tomorrow for Frankie.....

taken 1/2 off and stop moved to b/e ..stress free

moving stop to b/e...stress free...it's been another good day for me without any loser..

taken 1/2 off . I'm going to leave both NC and AC alone..only one thing can happen from now. ,either it hits my targets or I get stopped out..bbl

I'm just stopping in while I have some lunch and before I start my afternoon chores. I just added up my nett pips gain for the week so far, which is something that I hardly ever do until the end of the week, but I notice that I'm only 7 pips from my weekly target still with 2 days to go. So even though the PA has been erratic, the pips are still available if I stick to the plan....which is cool.

Of course the measure of 'pips' is not entirely fair because the real measure of performance is percent increase in the account. You'll no doubt have seen in various threads across FF, people claiming to have 'made 900 pips yesterday' or such like, but (assuming they're not demo trading) the real question is 'how much percentage increase in the account does 900 pips represent?' Is 1 pip worth 1c or is 1 pip worth $10? The answer of course, doesn't matter unless it is joined by the size of the account, which will give us the percentage gain (or loss).

I'm not suggesting that we show account percentages, I'm just saying that 'total pip count' is not relevant, account percentage is. But that said, pip count is the only constant that we have.....so we use it!!

Anyway....coffee time is over, so see you back here for Frankie
