But the candle on the 15 min stopped at my tl and therefore I prefered a G/U short.

Ahh yes I see now...dont really trade that TF...only if @ a strong PPZ etc then I might scroll down to look for PA. I reckon we'll push through that TL and support below in a bit....

GU was the better immediate option though IMO.

Can't get better than this.

Indeed it cannot...Dow might be presenting us with a opportunity soon too, though xxx/jpy aren't aligned as nice as the UC / Oil combination.

Takne some profit off the table on my previous trades. With oil and dow futures breakinf their confluence areas...I woudn't expect these to turn into runners...moved SL's up on the remainder.

Still have open positions as follows:

short - AU,AJ, EJ, EU, UJ,CJ

Dow has really soared as has oil. I tihnk this market is stretched and we'll get a pullback. xxx/jpy and xxx/usd aren't following the dow up and the dow is essentially out on its own as dax plus ftse futures aren't following. All seems a bit disconnected.

Not looking for runners with these trades though - will be quick to lock in profits.

Still have positions open...SL and TP set for the night and just reviewing daily charts before shutting down for the day.

Was going over my results and stats and realised I'd got my formulas all wrong for some bizarre reason. So, starting again, in order to achieve my 6 month first target I need to make the following:

- 4.4% per day
- 21.4% per week
- 137.5% per month

and restating my reuslts so far:
Day 1: -3.68%
Day 2: +34.07%
Day 3: +7.54%
Day 4: +3.27%

Total Account Gain is 43.43% on closed positions

Very nearly took this last night...but I decided that as it hadn't closed below the round number I'd give it a and just watch...it went to exactly where you'd expect it to go. On the on-majors I look at daily and 4HR charts only...and if I see a setup I'll most likely take full profit @ the FTA unless we arein a deep trend and I feel there could be a chance of a runner.

Exited some of my shorts this morning for losses and left others as is. Not around much this morning but will be back before US GDP. The market looks bullish to me with Eurozone concerns easing, but US GDP will be a big driver of this afternoons action, until then I'd expect the market to move slowly with an upward bias after yesterdays strong Dow move.

stop and reverse on AU
great work!! I saw that and didnt act holding onto my shorts. price looks like having another crack at .94 now it has broken above the channel. To admit you are wrong, cut the loss and act quickly enough to get a good position in the opposite direction is a psychological challenge. well done
