2onesself Trading Journal

[2onesself]

Think I should start a trading journal to keep my trades in check. I tend to over-leverage and also drag on my trades too long. I will start with my basic opening strategy and slowly implement my other strategy over time with this Journal.

Will be sticking to my opening break strategy, double gap trades and also 1hr break strategy on my index trade over the next month.

Would be happy to hear any feedback or recommendation to improve.

With the US 10 year note yield rose to 3.24% and 2 year to 2.897% it has drag most of the overnight market lower. With this in mind, I would favour a down break a bit more and keep an eye out for the overnight lows. ASX 6143.3 & FTSE 7295.

As per usual Monday will be trading the opening 5-minute bar break targeting bar length for both the ASX 200 & FTSE.

Will also be trading reversals on the 15 min or 1 hour Bollinger band, selling break from the upper band.

Don't really keep a record, that is why I'm starting this journal.

ASX opening 5 min bar worked well this morning, will not be taking the FTSE 5 min opening break to cause the opening bar is greater the 15 pip. Will be looking for 3 or 15 min Boli sell before the US open.

FTSE usual Wednesday trade would be the 5 min and the 1 hr opening break, it has been my bread and butter for the week. Also, the with an 8 point dividend payout for the FTSE will be looking for some buying opportunity in the last hours either on the 3 or 15 min Bollinger band buy, depending on the trend.

Yesterdays High (7247) & Low (7184) will be Key Support and Resistance.

No Trading for crazy Thursdays. Although with a big sell-off I'm tempted to buy on 3 / 15 min Lower Bollinger if we get one. But its best to leave it alone.

5 min opening bar failed at both ends yesterday but got a good 1 hr opening reversal break. Shorted at 7110 and took a quick 20 pip profit, should have left a runner till close.

But I guess that how it goes

Nothing much to trade till tomorrow on the 1 hr opening break for the FTSE

November Call option for FTSE is worth a punt, brought 1 lot for 7375 and another for 7400
