just sold the E$ @ 1.30694 .2 lots SL 1.30834 TP 1.30494 range break off a double top with lower high.
 
Boy that was a strange delayed reaction to the China PMI. was long through it but let it go 10 minutes later for 70 points to then watch it explode another 100

Sums up my year

Sums up my morning as well.

Bought something at 12c... held for 30 minutes and sold at 12c. Now 14c.

You just have to say, sometimes you are too quick for the market.

Yep after 10 years of this silly game I would have to report that the main emotions are,

80 % frustration,
19 % feeling like I'm going to spew :crap:
2 % satisfaction.











see why I'm a traders not an "invester"

Sums it up well. Although I am having my best week this financial year + sitting at new equity high... so probably shouldn't complain too much

I feel that, the longer I've traded (almost 4 yrs now), the more frustration comes. When you see more, you miss more (or you know you are missing more rather than completely ignorant about it).

I see increasing % of frustration as signs of progress...

Long now at the open of the 1 pm bar. .3 lots

tp hit plus 21... taken a new long under the 21 but only a micro trade of .05 just for the reason the signal was there but due to the last 1 hour bar sell off, i am a little weary of how much drive the buyers have left. ent @ 1.30850

could also take a small long on GBPJPY at the close of current hour bar if it holds this low.
 
DAX rejected 7621 for now and has gone back to 7600 ish....its like a magnet.

T'was the month before Christmas and all through my shacks

Not an index was stirring , not even the DAX!

So I decided to go short
And was suddenly caught

By that jolly old man with the fat belly
Who'd decided to fly in with a ten percent rally!

As my shorts blew past the North Pole
I examined a great hole!
In one of my ledgers
I even had to hedge my own hedges!

As my grail was squashed flat
I said that's that!

But he suddenly let loose
Upon my golden goose!

Though I'd warned him never to pluck it
All he could say was oh ohh ohhh, .... it!

As I turned red
To Santa I said

'tis the season to forgive
And I know where you live!

So get ready to practice forgiveness!
