end of week

Not been a stunning week for me this week has it, but I have been doing a little scalping the last day or so to supplement (not that ive made that much!) - here's the state of play at the moment
 
Just before I do that just to let you know that the grailtrading blog has been updated
 
Ok,
 
I'm leaving audjpy to run - currently +68
 
I'm leaving usdjpy to run currently 2 positions +14 and -131
 
Closed gpbchf +19 pips
 
I'm leaving usdchf to run currently +8 pips
 
I'm leaving eurcad to run currently +2 pips
 
I'm leaving chfjpy to run currently -8 pips
 
closed cadjpy -17 pips
 
I'm leaving euraud to run - currently -39 pips
 
closed 1 position gbpjpy +43 pips
 
I'm leaving gbpjpy to run - currently -70
 
I'm leaving gbpusd to run currently -132
 
so, closes for the week = +155 on closed trades
 
(and -288 on open trades!)

painful arrghhh

well, its certainly painful at the moment.
 
todays action:
 
amazingly none of the trades have stopped out yet but there is some significant pain
 
I have added to the gbpusd position at 1.7326 with the stop at the same level as the first position, in the words of hannibal lecter's nemesis 'seemed like a good idea at the time'
 
also added to usdjpy short @ 117.75 stop same as first position
 
I should really close the cable position and the gbpjpy position as the signals are conflicting at the mo, but in for a penny in for a pound ... (famous last words) so im going to assess the situation tomorrow night if the trades are still open.
 
closed eurcad 141.01 -16 pips
 
new orders - come on then!!! lets have some proper pain!!!
 
long chfjpy 90.26 if seen stop 88.70
 
eurcad long @ 1.4149 if seen stop 1.3990
 
audjpy long @ 83.47 if seen stop 81.90
 
gbpchf short @ 2.2684 if seen stop 2.2905
 
stop moves
 
cadjpy stop moved to 99.34
 
gbpjpy stops on both positions moved to 202.90
 
usdjpy stop moved to 118.40
 
 
everything else remains as is, till tomorrow, good trading to you :)

new orders

Dear Bloggers
 
a slew of orders tonight so lets see if any trigger tomorrow
 
note all orders are limit orders and are 'if hit'
 
also due to the large amount of signals tonight and also the fact that I am still 'honing' this method these positions will be very small to limit my risk.  This is being played on a live account though (dont believe in demo's) - on saying that they are small i still stand to lose a fair amount if they all go tits up so wish me luck!
 
eurusd short @1.2069 stop 1.2219
 
gbpusd short @1.7443 stop 1.7610
 
usdchf long @ 1.3050 stop 1.2795
 
usdjpy long @ 117.43 stop 115.40
 
gbpjpy long @205.17 stop 204.97
 
eurcad short @ 1.4031 stop 1.4235

end of week

good week in all then - finished up on 348 pips on closed trades
 
still have usdjpy open at + 127
 
also have an audusd open from 1.1486 - target is 1.1422 on that one - not a proper swing as this was taken on the our hour chart - going to watch this carefully this week as its ready for a turn down - prediction will be a fall to 1.1422 followed by a rise that wont make new highs - then ill be re-shorting for a swing trade
 
took a short this morning on euraud - reasons for this are not my usual ones - its way over extended, cci is above 400 and this really needs to come back to sip some buyers - im hoping for a good drop on sun night / mon morning - just feels like a no brainer so it will probarbly lose lol - only placed a small position.
 
I have orders placed as follows
 
Short eurjpy @141.08 if hit stop 142.60 - swing trade
 
short chfjpy @ 89.60 if hit- stop 90.81 - swing trade
 
time will tell and heres hoping for good judgement this week
 
hope you had a good one :)

stops moved as follows
 
usdjpy = 117.70
gbpusd = 1.7390
 
targets: - i may or may not close half or full positions at these levels on the following currencies
 
first target set for euro 1.2214
 
first target set for usdchf 1.2840
 
first target set for gbpusd 1.7675 but need to see how it reacts to 1.7621 and 1.7648
 
Yen is currently at a significant support point and i may close it in the morning if things dont look good.
 
comments - cad was stopped out today, the stop was too tight as the day finished back in the intended direction - a lesson has been learned. also another lesson learned on the size of the potential entry candle and ive thought of a better way that could have saved the jpy trade from being so far in the red before the turnaround - interesting

swing trades

sorry folks, just cannot be bothered to find the time to post on here much anymore - got a lot on.
 
I think best thing to do is to share my swing trades - these are based on daily charts and do incorporate hilda along with something else
 
Two trades open as of today
 
Long EUR/USD 1.1953 stop @1.1859 no profit target as of yet
 
Short USDCHF 1.3112 Stop @1.3237 no target as yet
 
this will be updated if i close them or open any others - just check twice a day
