A new day, a new week.
Still trying to clear my head from 3 losing days last week that took me down 6%. But today is a new day and a new week, and I’m approaching it with a fresh attitude.
There was some Brexit news as I came to the charts that was sending the EURO and GBP pairs way up, but I was a little late to get into it. Everything else is pretty much ranging.
I was able to get into EURUSD, EURJPY, GBPUSD, and GBPJPY on pullbacks, but the exciting part of the news is over. The GBPUSD stopped out for <10.3>, and the the others are moving sideways. I’ll see if some follow thru develops.
Meanwhile, I took an RBO short on the USDCAD, but it closed back inside the range for <7.3>, so I’m down <17..6> coming up on 9:00 AM CDT.
GBPJPY just stopped out. Now down <29.6> and holding EURJPY and EURUSD. Both have been sticking their heads up above my entry price, then pulling back somewhat.
I just took a re-entry trade on GBPJPY as it came through the top of the no-entry zone. And that one has now stopped out as well for <12.0> So that’s two strikes on GBPJPY, and I’m done with it for the day.
At 9:30, I’m down <41.7>, and still hanging on to EURUSD and EURJPY.
At 11:00, the EURJPY just stopped out for another <10.0>, after 2 and a half hours. Now down <51.7>.
It’s past noon here in Dallas, and I have to leave at 1:00, so I was cleaning up some pending orders, and accidentally closed the one order that I still had open, EURUSD, for <4.0>. So with that, I’m flat the market and down <55.7>. 6 trades, all losers. This is not a good way to start off the month. That puts me down over 200 pips for the month-to-date.
