Disliked{quote} Mediocre start of day for me with badly timed long 1.1905. Now 1.1901 and -0.4% on equity. Still have long bias. Don't see a significant retr. coming from the current (Thursday's) swing high. See higher before lower. 11:45 Server Time. Adjusted my position. Long 1.1898 same size. 12:13 Doubled the long, now at 1.1894 13:20 Edged the long as price dropped below 1.1893. This is going nowhere slowly. 14:32 Edge removed. Long 1.1889. Balance 0% 14:40 Flat. Equity +0.2% 16:04 Back in. Long 1.1933 looking for continuation up. ...and out. Don't...Ignored
11:19 Server Time. Plan is in effect. Long 1.1957 with partial edge 1.1967 Equity +1%
11:42 ST You look at the 1m and it gives the impression it is ready to explode upwards. Like they are having a hard time holding it. But, of course it's often like that before going down. It takes you to the edge, convincing you of one thing, before doing the opposite; that's how it gets you. There are good reasons to do a deeper retr. to 1.1945 or lower; to shake out the impulsive late buyers, for one.
17:09 ST Let my net long go in the red as planned. Didn't reach as low for me to add to the long. Went net short around 1.196. Closed everything and out +1.8%.
Data feed from ICMarkets got interrupted for 13 minutes and I'm still looking at the false charts with the missing skipped periods from feed out. Too unnerving to continue. Closing everything and looking for a new broker.
Temperance (restraint in action, thought or feeling) is a virtue.
