Re: JDTRADER £97 to Financial Freedom

Well shame I had to take the wife out as I could of squeezed more profit but the trailing stops done there job.

Last four trades saved the day.

Open £97.50
Close £99.00
+£1.50 (+1.55%)

not what I had in mind but I pulled it back from £87.08 at 2:15pm. So I'm happy to be up £1.50 than down £10.42.

Lack of patience and to eager to crack on today, got that out of my system today so onward and UPWARDS lol

GBP/USD & EUR/USD still falling dam dam the wife lol Love her really. Great to see I was right should of kept out of the news and waited.

Day 1 over c ya all for Day 2 Thursday.................

How did you get on ?

 

[redart]

Re: JDTRADER £97 to Financial Freedom

How did you get on ?

Upto around £500 from the £350 and stopped for now

Am waiting to move on to the next 'step' which will involve less 'risk' (in terms of not potentially letting a few losers wipe the whole account).

Am testing ideas, papertrading etc.

Will likely continue when i have gained some confidence in one of my theories, although I imagine that the 'next step' will actually just be me slowly pissing away the £150 that i've made! lol

Oanda -
I was going to trade on Oanda but I have had problems getting funds on the account in the past. So Monday I sent a test deposit of £10 to make sure I got the deposit process right.

As now I'm on Smart Live Markets I'll just trade the £10, I opened a SELL long term position.

EUR/USD SELL 1.2807 stop 1.3057 TP 1.2200
£0.04 per pip
