No trades yesterday as I went to see Hellboy 2 after work, the movie was rather disappointing although visually stunning. Last time round I would have forced myself to trade on returning home to get the daily 10 pips to keep on track for the 250K target and that was definitely a huge problem, and just basically dumb. Now I’m relaxed about skipping days and the day doesn’t count for anything.
Today I was looking forward to a full day off work and a lot more active trading but as it turned out I couldn’t as I had to baby sit my eldest daughter who sprained her wrist playing football and couldn’t go to school.
So I had to make to do with another late start. Today’s fall in the EURUSD was another 200 pointer and when I got to the screen it had bottomed and started to recover some losses. If I’d have logged on ten minutes earlier I would have been there right for the candle setup I love the most, see the chart attached for the hammer candle 2 bars before my entry after a small retracement of the surge up. Impatience crept in here due to missing the whole day and that candle so I went long almost immediately, in my defence the pattern still looked good but I got a scare as shortly after I was 9 pips in the red, although only for a very short period. After that momentary worry I closed the trade 2 bars later for 9.1 pips, I missed 10.1 pips by being too slow. The second trade was super quick, less than 2 minutes into the next bar, I closed for another 3.1 pips.
