Let's get to work

Added some more locked the initial.
It's not moving as fast as I'd imagine so going to let it ride for a while. If I see any big rises, and then higher lows... add again. Ironically the quick EU position is performing better but as I say, focus on UCHF.

UY still struggling to move off the low. Still think it will though, entry at 93.75 good. If we see it.

OK so far but it can all disappear in an instant. I've been at max for a while, taking a bit here, adding on lower.

Out both eu and uchf for 62 and 72 before scales, loads including. Premature possibly. It actually moved slower than I was expecting thus taking the thrust up. We'll see how wise it was but I was heavy onside and it turned out to be a good day. May well see another rise around 3pm. Removing UY orders, everything out.

Great overnight - opened a UY closed for 150. EU minus 40. Open UCHF at b/e
They were all low positions (because I'm not on hand to scale/rescue), so the 150 on UY was worth less than half the 72 on uchf in the day, proving just how important the scaling is. There was no difference in risk between them either.

Today then...
Taken a short UCAD just now with a tight stop.
EU is a short but at better levels tbc, may well be much later on this pm.
I'm ok with long uchf for a multi-day builder, but I want to see some movement before I add on (it's 9 offside at the moment).
UY I think we'll see it grinding lower for the day - I want long again but not for a little while.

Not a lot, time to brush off some research unless one of the open trades starts getting exciting.

Moving UCAD to b/e, not because it's a runner but because on balance I don't think it's a good trade. It's 12 on side, UCHF doing nothing significant either. GBP was the flier today, missed it.

Long EU, potential attack of barrier up top. Scaling in over about 20 from here.

OK that'll do for eu long entry. Not showing much signs of movement mind you but the trade's on from here. DNT expires in just over 2 hours so it needs to be soon, otherwise I am oot.

took the measily 10 on ucad. Chf sitting slightly higher.

Just updating this baby with the end of Friday - was bobbins actually. Cut EU for a bag of nuts at the cut once the barrier was a well out the way, which was never attacked, left UCHF which got stopped out by a single pip because I wasn't there, leaving it slightly down on the day. When I'm not there, I always have stops except on the small positions in case it does a real runner which always leave exposure.

But no matter.

Week was a belting 25% up in all. These vols are something else. But also, the approach I had which was to target only big runners is going well, and worth it for more targeted trades.

Sun night/Mon looking for good trades EU, UCHF and UY.

OK, longed euchf at market, assuming those friday lows will hold. Not the greatest entry @ 307, but will do looking for 370.

Waiting for a short later on UCAD.

UY really missed the boat last night on this, looking for a bigger retrace to get in long.94.55 will do but whether or not it makes it is another matter. Shorts back in play around 96 so let's see.

Don't have much in the way of longer term trades till I get a better short on UY, so will have to keep the EURCHF as today's play.

Splitting my UY, entered long at 78, more at 55.

Well, that was dull. Nothing ran at all, closed both for virtually nothing need to find the next runners...

ok.tight long on AU to get to 610.

eu shorting from 3380. Looks like it's run out steam.

eurchf, should not have cut this - not because of post-event analysis but because I already had a longer-term horizon anyway. Too late.

uy looking at another fall from 96, possibly lower tomorrow.

that's the lot.

O/night AU closed for -16, and I just closed EU for +50 while I consider my options.

OK and its short UY. Scrap the order at 96, going down from here. And I'm scaling, and I'm piling if it climbs above here too. I'd trade out if we were hanging around 95.50 at London close...

just to add - looking for longs around the lows too, it's well supported at 93.50 so something above here would do just fine.

Tightening up that a bit, if we trade above 95.16 for a decent length of time (30m+), which we may well do, I'm trading out. Rising too hard at present.

This is one ugly trade, I'm trading out of it.

And done. Need a break after that, out up a little. Would have a been a storming day if I'd gone the other way, ahem. As it is, I'd have passed interviews for being a market maker with flying colours.

Going to break for a couple, figure out what's next later.

Tech problems- late start.
Onwards, so...

Need a better entry long for AU.
Or Short from 0.9562

Long EUCHF at market for a couple days. This is my scaler. Also could buy UCHF, but going to focus on the one pair.

UY just don't know, keeping an eye on it.

I'm pivoting UY on 95.11 (currently long). Haven't got a clue which way it's going to go, but it's a good pivot, long above, short below.

So today, Monday, Tuesday - 3 days have really not got off the ground at all so far, this from a storming week last week.
Not acceptable. So extending my hours today until I've got something to show.

UY is a definite goer, though I'm less sure about the direction. My guess is still up. EURCHF is a longer-term play, currently doing nothing at all. going to take a look at the others and see if there's anything else.
