Yesterday was GFIs1 1st anniversary on futures.io (formerly BMT)... so no trade announced - but a day off ;-)

Today Dax long 10:30 to 13:00

entry @ 7707

exit @ 7677 (SL)

result minus 30 points.

risk - medium

outlook - some down move expected - many company results and some US numbers later in the day
update - expecting tomorrow a significant down move // which might have started today ;-)


anyway - GOOD Trades!

GFIs1

Update virtual Wednesday trade: After normal rules the trade would have ended with SL...

Yes, I agree. Prices may go up a little on open and then, perhaps by 10 - 10:30 your time, down probably to the 7670 area at least.
Good for you you didn't trade yesterday because you would have probably gone short ... so you skipped a certain loser. Just goes to show you have both good instincts and some luck as well. I've come to realize your system works best in strong trending markets, but so is buy and hold...

All the best.

Thanks @Eyal
Luck is an important part in trading ;-)
I have to dig a bit into yesterday's trade which I did not take or announce. Will update it in the Thursday's journal.
Looks good to go down intraday today - in the next two weeks a wandering through the red daily cloud down to
min. 7396 is foreseen.

Good Trades

THANKS MIKE!
Keep going - futures.io (formerly BMT) rocks!

Started this journal exactly a year ago - and it is still very alive...
A great futures.io (formerly BMT) platform plus a great futures.io (formerly BMT) audience were the reason to consistent nearly everyday GFIs1 posts.

No trade today:
1) conflicting rules
2) had bad directions with touching SL this week - protecting capital

outlook
– further short on the downmove
– price is IN the daily red Kumo
– a flush today might happen

Be alerted and do not trade without SL

GFIs1

UPDATE: found the reason for the conflicting rules: MONDAY US President Day...

Difficult week with only three trades

One positive and two negative trades:

Positive (9 points)
Negative (2 x-30 SL = -60 points)

Total weekly result minus 51 points
Points this year: plus 123 points
