Good week or bad week?

For me at least this has been the most volatile and remarkable trading week. I can honestly say I've never seen anything like it before and will possibly never again...

So fill in the poll anonymously - was it a profitable week or not.....

Superb!

I hope we get to see a lot more of this action.

It can be a bit of a nightmare if price is going back & forth indecisively fast & furiously, but once the breaks come, it becomes jawdroppingly simple.

poor week, poorer last few months.

I have struggled this week TBH.

Volatility not the root cause, rather lack of liquidity that exaccerbates moves. Combined with alot of unwinding, => not so hot.

I have stayed out a lot this week.
Sometimes one has to sit on the sidelines and watch this week has been one of those times.

This week was as consistent as the week before, and the week before that, and the week before that etc...etc...etc...5/5 this week, although I can't do this every week, I am getting better.
