Friday July 26th post



Another day of picking a direction and trading in it. Buying had 1 win and a couple of losses depending on personal rules for buying. Coulda been a just above break even day or just below break even day depending on your per trade max target. Selling on the other hand was the way to go today. If for some crazy reason i had the audacity to believe that if price is generally moving down between 00 est and 09 est that maybe i should look for sells via what i believe to be a positive expectancy setup between 09 and 12 then i woulda made some good trades. Either way, today was a good day.

Had a connection issue earlier so i wasn't able to post this chart.

EU looked like it was going down and did. EJ looked like it was channeling and it did.

EU went up pre ny so my bias was for it to go up more. If i was looking for shorts i could have entered at around 3278 due to the cross and retrace.
EJ went down today so my bias was down. Took a short around my line because sometimes it will just bounce off. Optimal short would have been at the top of that channel around the daily open. Captured most of the move space.
I was looking at the UJ as well. It was going down as well but it had quite the rally from 9 to 10:30 which is the time that the EJ was channeling below the daily open. The EJ dropped the same time the UJ hit it's daily open. Magic no? A little bit of correlation action.

Slept late today. Feel Refreshed.

EU. Todays bias was unclear. Following price was the ideal trade. Entry was after the daily open cross.
EJ bias same as EU. Big swings. Again following price is the way to go.

EU, missed a line. EU bias was a clear down. The line i missed made the trade of the day.
EJ just went up. Easily catch a momentum trade after the sustained break of the high.

EU. NFP set momentum to up. I'd say the lines performed average today.
EJ. NFP set momentum to down. 131.72 trade of the day.

Selling both eu and ej

Monday August 5th Post



As stated at 9a selling both EU and EJ today.

EU. Selling from 3260 and/or 3254 early in the session were the big trades considering the day. A sell from the news break of 3242 was an ok trade. That type of low break has proven to be a 50/50 tp hit rate at best. Considering the historical volume and volitility of mondays, and the current days movement, it was a no go.

EJ. Selling from 130.74 had the trades of the day. Nothing much to say here. They all won.

Been considering how to add the uj into the mix. UJ was another winner today but since i didn't post my intentions with it earlier, i won't go into it.

Tuesday August 6th



EU buying.
EJ buy at the bottom and sell at the top.

Tuesday August 6th



EU. Buying 3290 and buying 3306 after the cross made pips. No other buying opportunities afterwards.
EJ. Buying 130.38 at 9:15 because of SR flip won. Selling 130.38 at 10:15 because of SR flip won.
Buying daily open at 10:30 lost. 2nd touch and win is not as likely as 1st touch and win. Selling 130.12+daily open SR flip won.

SR flip is simply buying at pull backs to recently crossed highs and selling at pullbacks to recently crossed lows. This is falls under the category of buying at bottoms and selling at tops for this type of trading.

Edit: gonna get the UJ in there next week. Also going to start taking 1-2 trades per day.

Wednesday August 7th



EU. Channel. Buying tops. Selling Bottoms.
EJ. Selling. If there's a strong break above 129.46 i'll start buying.

Wednesday August 7th



EU. 3290, daily open, and 3300 confluence area was a good place to take an entry. After price broke the 3310 it retraced a bit but didn't make it back to the 3310 so no entry on that.

EJ. not much to say here. Price hit the 128.77 on a retrace after the break and then went on down. Only trade of the session for ej.

On a side note, i've decided i'll pair UJ with AU. I'll also start going over mid course adjustments. All starting next week, time permitting of course.

EU. Buying
EJ. Selling

Thursday August 8th post



EU. EU went up. Good for buying. I didn't get in. I missed the 3369 buy. I was a little unsure about it so i decided to stay away. This means i gotta take a closer look at that setup.
EJ. Dashed line is a line i didn't put up earlier. I missed it, but caught in in the session. Took a sell on it. Target was the recent lows around 128.34. Cut it loose for a profit after price channeled for quite sometime. I saw EU rising and UJ tanking which would explain the go no where on the EJ. I didn't know where the money was going after that so i just cut it while in profits.
UJ. I know i didn't post a chart but i sold at 10:25 est at 96.03 (the 0-9 low SR flip) closed it soon after at 95.94 because i was at my daily target.
