Today Wednesday was dancing around 12000.
Then some numbers from Germany 14:15 and then US BIP 2nd quarter came out.
Only those numbers gave some movement besides the sideways move.

Tomorrow Thursday - the last day of the month will make for sure a larger move.
Lets see what will happen.

** took today - as a rare case a take profit (here 12169) near high (body) of last high.
This ends this trade instead of waiting until 17:30. Anyway the trade was slow but
good for the day.

Your're really holding your position during NFP?

Surely holding a position over US NFP, is purely gambling? Slippage could be massive etc..?

to my dear followers @tr8er and @CPRICE76

As you can read in my last update of the post *before* numbers
I closed it with a virtual TP.
This does not mean that a closing @17:30 (not yet reached)
could not go there too.
But as a benefit before ending this long weekend I am
happy to end this day quite positive.

Have a great weekend

Cool GFIs1, I hope you took out 60, 70 points before NFP, very nice trade.

This trade was a perfect example not to trade thru important news like NFP

This week had 4 trades

Two negative -40 -10 points
Two positive 26 + 69 points

Weekly result 45 points
Points since week 1: 1257

With this we are back to the level of week 27.
Only week 26 was the high watermark.
Seeing all my efforts I can tell I could have been on holidays for a same result
from week 26 to week 34.
But anyway - that s part of the trading

Sounds like a new plan rule, to me :-)


Good job!
