So I just had an interesting realization that like 85% of my trades are shorts. I have no idea why but it's certainly worth looking into.

Nice little scalp setup here. Market is extremely volatile right now for whatever reason, so I know I could get stopped out in a second but I like the R/R here.

Taking a break. Be back later tonight. Currently at +40.60 pips, +$609. I'm pumped, but I'd be thrilled if yesterday wasn't the worst day of trading I had in my life at -45.07 pips, -$676.05.

I'm back, but appears to be some fireworks in the market right now so I'm on the sidelines.

One thing you do very well is hang up the platform when things are going rocky. Continue to stay your course and everything will work out fine for you...I'm sure of it.

Looks like the 1.0535 level was hugely important to the AUD/USD recently. In short.

Ouch, what a promising 10 pip downward rebound on that level that slowly inched back.
