We recently ran another one of our Advanced FX Trading Days in Central London.  We had a good knowledgable interactive crowd who were able to provide their own views on both trading and the markets in general.  Throw in some good food, banter and a well-earned pint in the pub afterwards and it all made for a […]

Ahhh NFP day, either a glorious day of profits or a painful lesson in trading around major news announcements. Today for me was a strange mixture of both, though mostly due to luck did I manage to come away with profit in my pocket. The scores on the doors where: EURUSD -15 GBPUSD 0 EURUSD +11 […]

I May have learnt my lesson….

The theme of my trading for May seemed to be make pips – lose half – make more pips. All in the space of one day. Today being the 1st June I was clear headed enough to not make the same mistake. Today was make pips – lose a few pips  – finish – go […]

I’ve been away working and on holiday for the last two weeks so I always ease myself back into trading very slowly. Yesterday was my first day back but it was a strange old messy day. Today I was back into my routine and starting with my relative strength filter it was giving me some […]

23/2/10 Cable & Eurusd – A profitable +60 day but…. what a shocker!

Yes Ladies and Gentlemen, whilst I have had a successful day today it’s fair to say I am somewhat grumpy and annoyed with myself.  I have made a litany of mistakes today and was lucky to get away with them.   Whilst I felt somewhat tired this morning at my 0530 start it wasn’t any worse […]
