GU short @ 1.5695......SL 1.5720, TP 1.5626.
Closed for +12, can't see it breaking through the 5680-5670 area anytime soon as theres a daily support pivot there.

May get back in short if it fails to break through 1.57 or at the 1.5725 area

Slow day hey!!

Trade potentials :-

DAX is in a uptrend, broke up on the move over 6755, looking for a pull back to enter with.

DOW similar shoulda spotted this 1 earlier.

GU's holding a downtrend, but 1.5680 area had buyers to, not enough range to play for chop.

EU has turned up, pulling back could be worth a shot long near here on buying strength. ( don't catch falling knives )

EJ same as EU.

AU puttng in a top 1.0500, uptrend but could be turning down, 1.0488 would break the uptrend.
Nothing to it, but to do it!!! Stick to the plan FOOL!!!!

Slow day indeed! Entered short on AU after a sort of double top at the whole number, TP is todays daily pivot @ 1.0450. Risk is low as going against the uptrend.

Running a very fast trend study these days and it's already turned down, I shoulda went short aswell near 1.0500.

EU turning down, missed my DAX pull back entry, need more screens.

Plan for the week is force myself to grow a pair and jump onto a existing trend move and ride it up / down, but so far I don't think today is the day to be doing that.

I'll enter on stupid trades and take the risk, but not with the trend, which is much lower risk and much higher potential, tis odd!!

Fix above and a few months down the line I'm no longer poor atleast.


AU it turning back up.

Summer period dead market already ?? Olympics maybe ?? or just a no new monday.

today is about losing 10+pips and missing a good chance to short GU in the morning.
Nothing else.
