Long & Wrong

Thoughts about trading (FX and Index Futures)

(a)’s and (b)’s.

with 5 comments

I am finishing early because it is (a) Friday and (b) sunny. Before I headed off I did though realise that this blog was about to languish in limbo for another week.

I’m not sure what to do with the blog but for now I’ll post a chart because (a) it is easy and (b) it makes me look clever (today is definitely not representative of my week though, the more astute of you will recognise the market conditions that suit my method and those that most certainly do not).

It’s a bit rushed, e.g. (a) The first trade was a loser but the minus sign is obscured by a horizontal line and (b) I’ve only recorded pips and these are not the same as money (as I normalise the risk per trade and stops are not shown).

As I write this we have broken below xx050 and there is some strength to sell into but like I said, it’s sunny. Have a good weekend.

  2. Uh, just to clarify the last comment…that was “well done” on the trading, not the posting of the chart.
