The gman's journal of pain and suffering

Well I have been following a few of the journal's on here such as Steviet's, Kharvell's etc. and have decided to keep one myself. Depending on how much time I have I might explain my trades, most of the time I probably won't as time restrictions with family work and trading. I use a few different methods, some long term trades and scalping the eur/usd quite a bit. Aiming for 10-15 pip profit daily over all. My daily end of my journal will be 5pm est if anyone cares.

Let the fun begin.

Roger that

I will be constantly looking at your journal to see how things go. If I'll have any tips or tricks, I'll be sure to post 'em here.

Happy trading

+34 pips for the day.

Ending early as it is a Friday. Majority of these pips came from the movement up on the Eur/Usd after it bottomed out today.

Have a good weekend all.

Would it be possible to know entry and exit points i.e. when the trade was made?

Thanks for your interest in the journal. That is something I really don't want/or have time to really do. This is because on this pair I like to scalp it quite a bit with the low spread and sometimes because of the trades this journal would take up too much time and typing and such when I could be spending it with the family or trading. That is why I was hesistant to start one in the first place as I knew people would be interested in that. What I will consider doing is maybe how many wins and losses if people are interested. Another reason is the journal is for me to look back on and see what kind of trade I have become. Longer trades I enter I will post.

4 wins
1 loss


Short eur/aud @ 1.6195 SL 1.6277 TP 1.5893

That's fine with me either way

Hey gman,

Good luck with your new journal and good trades to you my friend I will read with interest.

Thanks Kevin!

Well today was kinda busy for me but and could follow the market too much

+10 pips

1 win

Total pips +44

Good day for myself on the market.

I closed out the short on the eur/aud just my gut feeling for whatever reason and it wasn't at the best point in the day at all but still managed +27 pips overall on it.

For the day including the above closed trade

+50 pips nice move with the eur/usd.

+94 pips overall

Wait to see what the nzd/usd but might be tempted to take a short with a tight stop loss. Will see at the end of the daily close.

0 loss

Great call yesterday closing the eur/aud early.......NOT.

Anyways to today -5 pips. Made some silly decisions trading around the rate announcement. Over confident and generally stupid! Live and learn.
