Mon:
I got my trading times mixed up due to DST. I only realized after my short had been hit. I should have been in about 75 pips earlier. Following rule number one, the preservation of capital, I took 11 pips profit and decided to close out and wait for tomorrow.

+11 pips

Tue and Last day of the month:
Long at 140.26
TP +130 pips

Well that puts me at +600 for the month which I'm pretty happy about considering I lost 600 due to some bad trades early on.

The journal was to help me to be accountable for every pip and to help me treat trading like a business. I've done that so I will not continue with the journal but thanks for listening in.

Happy trading to all of you!
