Ok guys, I have decided to keep a journal of my trades.

My method is a mix of Technicals and Fundamentals.

I use FIBO, trendlines and MA mostly other than candle formations.

I will be posting chart from time to time ....

Thanks for your support.

Will you tell us more about your style/system/strategy? Do you trade the AUDUSD only or do you just look for opportunities anywhere?

I dont have any complicated system as I am not a 'system' trader. I study charts; draw trendlines, plot FIBO resistances and supports; and the place where a lot of supports converge together I buy; and vice versa.

I will mainly take positions in Eur/Usd, Gbp/Usd, Usd/Jpy, Aussie and Cad.

Buy GBP/JPY @ market: 217.80

SL: 217.40

TP: Open

The price has reached the mid level of Boilenger Band and has good chances of reversing and continuing the uptrend from here.

I dont expect any big upmove today, I think it will give me breakeven by market close.. but I want to take benefit of interest rates.. it probably reverse from Monday like previous reversal shown in the chart:

Note how the price crossed MA and found support at mid level BB on Friday (28.7.06).

It opened today around 217.70, SL edited to 217 as I dont want to get stopped out in low volume.

Its a Divergence indicator, when the color is Aqua it indicates there is Bullish divergence and price should go up, and for red its Bearish Divergence and price will come down.

TP hit for this trade, price has retraced a bit from there on, it has stalled at the trendline support, Boilenger Bands mid line and 14 days MA.

I have moved SL for GBP/JPY trade to 218.80, I will wait for the break of 220.65 till tomorrow US market close; if it fails I will be closing the position at market price available that time.

Balance:

Floating profit: 220 pips on trade no. 2 (GBP/JPY).

Booked profit: 100 pips

14 days MA is weighing in on price; and I dont want to take big risks before month end positioning.

Only one position open: GBP/JPY buy from 217.80; its protected with SL at 221 now.

I have closed my GBP/JPY @ 223.40 Thursday's market close, as it was the month end for August and I wanted to secure my commissions. The pair is still in a very strong uptrend, and 225 price should be breached this month. Here is a 4 hour chart for the pair; also have a look at weekly and monthly chart:

http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c236/purple11/gbp.jpg

Month end balance for August:

AUD/USD: 0 pips
GBP/JPY : 560 pips
EUR/AUD: 100 pips
EUR/GBP: -6 pips
USJ/JPY: 59 pips
XAU/USD: 29 pips

Net: 742 pips

No open positions as of yet.
