My broker's trading app currently has a bugged color scheme that makes it unintelligible. Currently working on my own PL calculations for tax purposes. This also allows me to show a crude PL graph by trade number also taking into account home currency fluctuation. Apologies for banana republic...

Buy DE30EUR x 5 @ 13223 stop 13122 Buy JP225USD x 8 @ 23836 stop 23764 Thursday didn't end up as bad as I feared but stops would have been hit so it's good I exited. Re-entering, will add more to DE30 position after overnight gap if trend seems to be right way. Would have been buying earlier...

Close -180, MFE +300-350ish. Stayed in plus for a long time but markets are simply reluctant to be easy today. Could be a shake weak hands out moment but I can't be up tonight to bet on it.

Buy DE30EUR x 19 @ 13218 stop 13189 Some more BTFD

The way I view it: Let's look at what happens with crowded edges (alphas) in simple directional trades. When someone or something places a trade based on a signal, it will impact the price, so that (if trade was large enough) the next entity (person or algo) to enter on the same signal has to...

Buy JP225JPY x 8 @ 23905 stop 23827 BTFD in Nikkei as I assume global rally momentum will persist for a while longer on the whole.

Out of draw down now so hopefully towards new account highs shortly.

Close India 50 +490

Close DE30EUR +280

Closed +101, need to go to bed and starting to get tired.

Buy HK33HKD x 59 @ 27831 stop 27795 At risk of making myself a fool, rebuying. Risk 250 (matches reduced risk of previous entry to my standard risk level).

Stopped -360 something. TBH should have taking opportunity to exit at zero because it wasn't a clean bounce (other major indices continuing to drift down had something to with it). MFE about 100.

Buy HK33HKD x 59 @ 27810 stop 27764 Buying LOD and round number (27800 an old bounce, previous bounce at 28000)

Mused about buying HK33 a few minutes before session (or rather, deferred it to some time into session after initial trend reversion that seems to take place very often) but forgot about checking back. Need timer as previously noticed.

Buy India50 x 15 @ 12201 stop 12163 against god knows what currency.

Move stop 13176 (a bit above entry)

Closed 11 DE30EUR, keeping 3 units long on until later today.

Ok wtf, +1380 unrealized as sudden drop that I bought retraced.

Buy DE30EUR x 3 @ 13161 stop 12980 Buy DE30EUR x 11 @ 13161 stop 13113 Dip buying because BTFD.
