[I might not close anything at 1st TP level as I won't be at home most of the time till weekend]


Earlier, long Gold @ 758.45; TP hit @ 762.408 (+400 pips), around $3.98bucks =)

Good enough for me after burning up almost 80% of my account within a short period of 1-2mths.

Since weekly targets achieved, i'll be back next week.

Analysis will be done on saturday.

short g/j (1.5microlot) @ 237.677
currently +90pips

limit order executed (from last week)
limit G/U short @ 2.0440

might add shorts at retrace levels for g/j

Update for the week:

i took many trades over thursday and friday (which i didn't post in here), but overall, increased my account by 30% (from the time i started this thread!).. that's in like 2 weeks, and it's the most profitable week of trading that i've ever had!

Following from last week's analysis, it's going to be a bearish week on the GJ, I might post some graphs following monday's trading day...

I'm expecting price to consolidate a little before the big fall.

current live trade:
short g/j @ 234.86 (on oanda) - can open on weekend
t/p 234.00
no s/l

currently +35pips =)!! and market hasn't opened

attached chart:

modified t/p @ 233.50

Current XE.com is @ 233.666!!!

I might manually close it or go long till 235.50 once i'm satisfied!

Closed that short for +53pip

opened long @ 234.322 T/P 235.200
no s/l

watching trade manually..

should go up once market closes gap

i went to sleep.. and my S/L got hit..
my S/L wasn't deep enough i guess

And idiotic Oanda didn't allow me to access the platform anyway.. they are really irritating during volatile market.. if i had been able to access it, i might have been able to limit the loss.. or go long from a lower low.


Well, lesson learnt!
overall -142pips for the day.

My position was just a 0.05lot (1/2 of what i usually trade), therefore the loss wasn't as bad..

still believe that i will end on a positive note!!

attached is the SL.. talk about accuracy for a S/L
