Hola 745 was good, 0800 a no show and 0815 a fail (still waiting to be fixed). Anyone else still trading Billy's bars?

{quote} Oooo...
But I still do that some times. And then watch the price move in my desired direction but I then simply sit there watching what could have been a reasonable trade fade away in front of my eyes

Normal broadcast resumedI see Claudia's Footsie played nicely too. {image} {image} Have a great weekend everyone.
FTSE does well. Got to be careful with stops/targets though. I'm using 15/20 at the moment. Need to look into trailing stops.
Edit: G/U had a good break too - missed that.

Not a great start to new week. Initial break long did not last and was a quick -50. Watched price charge through range bottom before turning back up and making a solid bid north. As price made a new bid through range high I played a 2nd Long. Has now had 3 attempts to break Friday's High but running out of steam. Stop loss moved to Break Even plus a couple so a freebie now.

{quote} I'm sure Claudia mentioned it doesn’t perform well on Mondays. Even the markets don’t like Mondays
8 days provided possibility of 40 and only 6 days gave up 50.
Perhaps this could lead me to reduced targets on Mondays. Thanks for pointing this out. I will have a quick look at Friday action too.
What sort of numbers are you seeing so far?
Cheers

Looks like I have to lower my expectations for a while. Shoot for 30 max. Will mean a max 30 Stop though.
Mr T has pointed us towards some helpful info recently so will continue to delve into that while I complete my forward testing on this lot.
