monday first session
OK, back in intraday mode then - im using only the 1,5 and 30 min charts at this point.
all trades will be based on hilda setups coupled with the thing i got from lucy which helps pinpoint profit taking and possible reversals.
As ive not traded intraday for a while im going to target just 20 pips per session - 2 sessions a day 7am - 11am and 1pm - 5pm for this week and ill be happy to take them in small bites. it may take me a while to get back into this after 3 weeks position trading.
all cable trades and all times are BST (british summer time which is GMT+1) and all rades have an automatic stop loss at 24 pips
08:00 short 1.7455 closed 7451 +4 pips
08:09 long 1.7454 closed 7461 +7 pips
08:16 short 7455 closed 7456 -1 pip
08:23 long 7457 added at 7451 closed 7456 +5 and -1 pips
taking a break now for 30 mins - coffee time

rss feed
Hi folks - got my rss feed working now so i thought i'd tell you how to use it
First you need an rss reader - one of the simplest ive found is rss reader which you can download for free at www.rssreader.com
when you have it installed just clik on the 'add+' button and copy this into the box that pops up http://feeds.feedburner.com/SoulsMadForextradingDiary
then go into the preferences and change the update time to once every 10 minutes.
now whenever i post to the blog you will know about it and will be able to read it without coming to the site every time - good eh :)

boring
another boring night - this is when i start to get speculative :(
i have taken a few trades today but nothing of note - few winners few losers - prob about 20 pips up
gbpjpy is still running about two weeks now isnt it? - up 122 pips as we speak
taking the following positions - all speculative
long euraud immediately 1.6728 stop 1.6638
short eurchf @1.5787 earlier today stop 1.5815
thats enough for now.
ill total up tomorrow for the week but next week im transferring the system to a 4 hour chart so that might be more fun

new day
ok, not too happy with my euraud position, particularly as it was in profit before this rise and now its 100 pips down!
still, give it room
gbpjpy is finally coming home - now at +107 after almost 2 weeks holding, nice interest too :)
Eur cad is also doing well in the +111 pips at the mo
lets look at these last two first
stop move gbpjpy to break even 205.17
eurcad take profit 1.4259 +110 pips
now for the new orders -
well, there arent any :)
eurjpy order for short cancelled - has broken highs of the year
chfjpy order cancelled
usdchf order cancelled.
that;'s it - not much happening really
have fun!

new entries
new orders placed - all are 'if seen'
long gbpchf @ 2.2731 stop 2.2590
short chfjpy @ 89.96 stop 90.72
long usdchf @ 1.3145 stop 1.3018
im also keeping a very close eye on eurjpy - triple top on the daily charts at the monthly M3 level coupled with a negative divergence on the 4 hour chart - looks good for a short sometime tomorrow if it all plays out.
in fact lets pop an order in - short eurjpy @ 142.44 stop 143.14

stop outs
well, guess it had to happen sooner or later - stop outs as follows:
gbpusd stopped 1.7290 -222 pips
usdchf stopped 1.3136 -84 pips
usdjpy stopped 118.40 -229
on the upside other positions are doing ok with audjpy leading the pack +121
also just placed a speculative long on gbpusd at 1.7253 stop 1.7220 - looking for the double bottom around here from the daily charts - worth a risk i reckon
