[marmoset]

out of short at 29: +18 (+25 = 43), but now have a -23 long on my hands...

Let's see if S1 (incidentally also the Tokyo low) holds up...

 

[marmoset]

put in another long at 32 (28+4) for a EUR retest of 2600

 

[marmoset]

closed out additional long at 42: +10 (+43 = +53), original long at -7

If EUR vaults 2600, leave it in, else hedge short

 

[marmoset]

out of long at b/e, hedged short at 49 at -11

 

[marmoset]

Pretty strong resistance at 2600 in eur, added an entry short at 39 for a mini-pyramid

 

[marmoset]

out of 49 short at 48 (44+4), for a +1 p), +54 so far.

Too much upward pressure on the EUR, adapting strategy to play it for a break-out: entry short at 39, entry long at 63 (59+4)

 

[marmoset]

Oh, blast it, long at 53

 

[marmoset]

Out at 59, +6 => +60 (not bad, considering I've slept through the 110 pip Tokyo drop)

Cable bumping against S1 (just noticed my earlier mention of S1 shoulda been S2, Tokyo low just below it at 18)

Adapting short entry to EUR going back under 2600 --> 1.8450 Dang, too close to current rate, keep finger poised on mouse

 

[marmoset]

short at 53, entry short at 41 for mini-pyramid (Big Ben, hopefully)

 

[marmoset]

Out at b/e, removed entry short. Looks like a tight-range day up to the Trade Balance news at 11.00 CET

Right, off to do some laundry. 60 pips in the bag, will be scalping some more later on.

 

[marmoset]

short at 45 and 41, target 29

 

[marmoset]

Closed both for +7 and +3: 60+10: +70 pips

 

[marmoset]

Long at 40 (36+4), target 50

 

[marmoset]

hedge short at 35, target 29

 

[marmoset]

hedge short closed at +6 (+76 total), went long at 30 (26+4), target 40

 

[marmoset]

Trade balance worse than expected: -2bln vs. -1.4bln, so put in a hedge short at 27, not expecting too much though

 

[marmoset]

Out of long 30 at 40: +10 (+76 = +86), out of long 40 at b/e, leaving me with a short 27 at -18

 

[marmoset]

Added another short at 40

 

[zuke]

First of the week. SHORT @460, 10 lots, Target 1 405, Stop 500

 

[marmoset]

added more shorts: at 65 and at 52, all target 26
