I have reduced size on EUR trading back down to 25K and I am still waiting for the updated version of the prog for the beginning of next week. I doubt i will place any trades tomorrow as I will try and take it easy and compose myself after all the BS that happened. Happy Fri the 13th to all...

Alright I decided to end the stupidity here and now. I got out of my JPY position at an incredible loss and it feels great. I can finally turn my attention to the EUR and make back my losses. I realize my biggest mistake was trying to hedge myself in the first place. I tend to look at the...

Some relief....finally

blew most of yesterday's gains shorting the yen from 107.31.... Made 21 pips shorting EUR from 1.5552 (prog entry) to 1.5531(manual exit), got out wayy too early. Its kindof funny to look at my screen with a -1000 UPNL loss on USDJPY and think to myself, how the hell did this happen, not...

Over estimated my PnL by 200 bucks. Rather disappointed. Yen continues to abuse me. PnL: 3514

Last update should have been -167 pips on USDjpy nor EURjpy. Anyway briefly I hit -1000 on UPNL last night, but it didnt really bother me as I knew the USDJPY would turn soon enough (yes yes yes I know what kindof terribly undisciplined trader I am). Right now I am going to cover half size...

To benluong: You disabled PM and so I cannot give you my answer to your question. Send me a message when you enable it.

Here is today's blotter. Bought my EUR 30K at 1.5471. Looking to long. Still have -50K on JPY and its really handing it to me. Looking for dip to get out this disaster. Pips closed on EUR: +29 Pips still open: -167 on 50K on EURJPY PnL, if you guessed 3200 you would be right. In...

OK I have taken action to get back on track with my program trading. Taken down the Eur pos. Turned on Prog. I will gradually manually trade out of my yen and put on a long term euppy short on a smaller scale to keep side by side while my prog makes me some PnL EURUSD. Make no mistake tho I...

So I shorted 25K at 106.29 of USDJPY for a total of 50K. pretty big mistake since the USDJPY is flying in my face as the dollar gains across the board. Ofcourse my EURUSD is postive lol, however it wont stay like that for long. I no longer care about the individual pairs however since I am...

Looks like I am doomed to stay at 3200. Thinking of shorting more JPY but I am not too optimistic. Maybe I will just continue marinating in my positions until something jumps out at me.

Price targets for EURUSD are higher than I expected between 1.62 to 1.67 this gonna def turn the heat up on me. Stay tuned.

Here is Sunday's blotter. Up 100 bucks over Fri, not bad but need another 100 to break even.

I apologize i posted the wrong statement last Fri but i couldnt update until today. Here is Friday's blotter, and I will also post today's. Ok so the markets opened with a delicious gap on both EUR and JPY enabling me to make some free pips to keep up my pnl for the right time to short more...

Here is the account statement. Still above 3K which is more than I thought I had. -10.2 return for the week.

OOHH some reponses I thought I was alone lol. Since I started posting I have closed out +160 pips in 3 weeks on EURUSD. Currently I have two open positions: +95 pips on USDJPY. -260 pips on EURUSD. As for 20% monthly, sure it can happen, if you look at the blotters I was up about 15%...

Let me guess you are short the EUR? First of all, they didnt tank the dollar, the fed had been doing that for a while. They just pushed the euro higher. I personally think the EUR is overvalued but thats not gonna stop big players from overbuying on the news to push long term shorties out...

Actually I made mistake on my last post. When you have two positions with one making money while the other is losing and you expect that to continue its best to add to the winning position and not the losing one. So I will most likely add to my USDJPY short and ride the dollar's fall rather than...

Predictably the EURUSD shot up another 100 pips in my face, and as for the JPY hedge, lets just say it leaves much to be desired, although it turn in my direction for about 50 pips after NFP news. However, after further research I am more convinced that in a longer term perspective my positions...

I just wanted to summarize my positions and trades really quickly from the last post. LONG stop out -30 pips LONG stop out -22 pips SHORT for +15 pips total closed pips: -37 pips on 30K open positions: short eur (30K)= -80 pips short usdjpy (25k) = -24 pips
