I called but didnt trade the dax spike down, a bit random since, should be playing the ranges but kinda liked yesterdays, with momentum setups kinda hard to switch that logic off and go back to ranges and hoping, they where certs yesterday, no messing.


Dont do as am!

SLOW day again, back to normal hey Bank rates in the UK likely the cause of this.


Just checked GA and missing a nice move on that 1



It's becoming a 1 or 2 good days per week with movement then a tight range to repeat many times and milk away from this.


Tricky Tricky!! Need to get the account going UP again ASAP, and double it atleast before I start having to take a wage from it and that time might be reduced as some work might be being cancelled.

SUCKS!!

Tired, Old, Moral is low, weather is hot and sticky, work stress HIGH, lack of cash not helping, struggling to be arsed to trade or do anything really!!


Need to kick myself in my own arse, delete the work stress part focus on trading to solve the cash issue.


If my account hadn't stalled ( mainly from above ) then I'd of closed the business already, need to unstall it but can't risk losing my gains so trading to cautiously to do so, catch 22 is a bitch!!


COME ON MORON!!

Trying to fix some issues with retail therapy lol


Bought a iPad mini to trade off, bigger screen better battery life, nexus 7 barely lasts 4 hours of charting and it's annoying likes to install updates all day long without asking and becomes useless while doing so, very frustrating.


Toys



Trades today = zero I should of made a weeks wages so far from the look of it! many 8 pipers a few 20's, not seeing a single loser on Dax.

Score on the week a very disapointing -8 thought I was nearer BE but it's only 8.

Need +60 for wage level, live to get to +120 per week really so 2x's wage requirement to beable to take a wage and keep growing account.

Cash flow, okay to end of August currently, clients late and trying not to dip into account but might have to

Quick 8 pips playing the range while waiting to take brats to school.


iPad mini is loads nicer to use that Nexus 7 battery isn't dropping, if you edit the software it stops running so no power drain and goes back to where you was in sub 2 seconds including logging back on, rather than, trade argh hits logged off, or not responding as it's updating.


Skiving till 3:30 bike ride screw it

How did today look on my 3 thingys.


DAX, got me some of the am chop then it got actually slower, went to a new low hit the tight SL's for the rookies then reversed up nicely, news no doubt pure chance of playing the range at the time but still small pips. basically Monday SUCKED!!

GBPAUD, range sloppy range, then a step up 10 pips, range then snooze, useless in real terms allowing for the 3 - 4 pips spread.


GOLD is better, early uptrend, swing lower, pull back and back on the lower then slow chop, worth it with the 5(0) pip spread, not really


MONDAY's don't bother, although on the DAX last Monday was nice enough ( I lost some ) , 26th fine, 19th most awesome, so no way to tell
