Hi Guys,

just some comments about a traders destiny :-)

I was looking at 500*FCQ5 - 400*LCQ5 to enter on a break out of the hook last week but I was still in my FC-FC spread with FCQ5 on the sell side.

Well, I did not enter the trade...unfortunately!

I was also looking at 100*SMQ5 - 600*BOQ5 on Friday but the spread moved up the last few minutes before the close.

I did not get into this one neither!

As you see I am not completely lazy...just don't have any luck to get the right entry.

So all I can do is to watch out for new ones...and I am sure I will find some!

Happy trading,

Andy

Yes, it's me...I did enter a spread trade!

6 x LCM5 - LCQ5 at a spread value of 0.9 on 05/23. Risk is $500. The idea is a seasonal trade.

Well, the spread moved down after the entry but now it's moving the right way. Will keep a tight time stop and jump out if it's not moving up till around 2.0 the next few days.

Will keep you informed how I am doing.

I am watching a few more spreads at the moment but I still can not see any entry signal.

Happy trading,

Andy

Hyp. loss is 0 (got out at b/e) - $300 commission = - $300

Hyp. account is now at $37,590

Here comes a new one: I did enter the following spread on 6/8:

8 x LHV5 - LHZ5 at a spread value 1.95. Risk is $350, target 4.50.

I did enter a MW spread on 6/6 on a break out of a trading range:

14 MNW5 - MWU5 at a spread value of -5. Risk is $200, target +10.

I did enter a LH spread on 6/6.

6 x LHN5 - LHQ5 at a spread value of 1.57. Risk was $450. I got out already on the next day at 0.87.

Hyp. loss was -$1,680 - $300 commission = -$1,980.

Hyp. account is now at $35,610.
