This one went break-even.

L @ 1.3590.

Probably some games around German futures markets opening.

Oh yeah... But this time I got lucky to be holding the position in direction of this dump... And it went less than in a tick from my stop-loss, but didn't touch it.

Took profit of my infamous 9 pips. :)

S @ 1.3601. Against the 00 #, but worth the try.

Today I am starting scalping experiment, no idea how long will it last, all depends on real time testing results: will only trade for ~3-3.5 hours a day (from approximately 7:00 GMT to 10:00 GMT) to see if making decent profits possible by having enough free time too... :p

Done trading for this week, have a nice weekend, everyone! :)

6 pips loss on that one, legit though, unlike the last loss where the entry was wrong (drew trendline incorrectly).

Last trade for today, longed @ 1.3533.

Short @ 1.3534 and took another 9 pips profit.

Took -6 loss on that one, misread the market a little.

Short from 1.3537.

All Gann numbers traded today... 9, 45... :D

This one was bailed break-even.
