What a move, work finished, want my 7 pips back ( there goes the account LOL )

I do not like trading on strong days like today, I simply can't think quick enough.

Here is a close up chart of todays fast action, it's moving down with the 26 staying in the 26's range, so short near the upper 26 in yellow, SL danger tight just outside worked on those!!

I am not at all used to days like today, used to chop, but need to be able to profit from days like today potential is HUGE!!

White arrows added for where to short.

First trade group -33, 2nd +26 so -7 ( show off ) and also done!

Stress is just to damn high isn't it.

The 33 just blipped and hit my SL, went back to BE area straight after, annoying!!

It's to fast, I hesitate, it's too late, repeat!!

Should be shorting DAX here, but worry to much about taking a loss.
 
Long DAX 9031 give me 8 pips baby I want a pizza :)


SL 9018, 2nd position on a pause @25 if possible, 9045 target


Didn't hit send LOL

SL moved below 9000, 2nd at 26, then 17 then 08 bounce you SUCKER!!

=10 here, to bail ??
 
hit +20 hesitated back to being in a LOSS this is FAST, to damn fast why am I trading like a newbie all of a sudden, arrggghhh!!

9030 plsssssss trade gods!!
 
Wussed out, after what felt like a life time of not making new highs at 9024 screw it, live to screw up another day!!

Took another position at 9005

so score from that is :-

-7
-2
+7
+16
+19

= +33 pips baby, loads of change :)

+26 on the day, but could of lost all this weeks trades and last, STUPID amatuer hour.

Getting good as saving 1's ass, no SL method has it's bonus's, but my not willing to take a loss, will be the end of me, sooner or later, I fear sooner!!
 
Damn near perfect top, that was CLOSE especially if this keeps going lower.

NO MORE Counter trend, just cause it's slow doesn't mean it won't turn crazy 3 seconds after I get in, which it did again.

If I'd of shorted when I posted, I should be shorting I'd of made 40pts approx. getting out near 9010 area, with WAY less stress and a SL of 12pips so bugger all risk to high reward.

At Krag Maga tonight, I'm going to ask for extra shit kicked out of me I think, I know kung fu so the huge instructor picks on me, tis fun, get to kick his ass back LOL
 
Might drop my lot size to an 80th I think it is, as low as I can go and work on trend trading, less fear and risk see if I can force myself to take the trades.

To fearful they'll continue up, but it can counter trend and they pretty much always continue down, I think I have a crazy method to get out of taking a loss with counter trend 98% of the time! where as trend change I have no such chance.

But profits would be up hugely, risks wayyyy lower so illogical.


Try again tomorrow, 20 more pips to beat last weeks profit shouldn't be an issue, love a 100pip up day and role over the 10k and steam to target of 20k but alas doubtful unless I solve above lol


Gym, class,a PAIN :)
 
Maga was good, didn't get near the blonde till end of the day, had a laugh, good eye contact just everyone else wants her LOL

I'd take tomorrow off, but then I'll be bored as zero actual work on and riding bike at night so can't ride twice, hmmmm.

Over Wage, but technically today although +26 counts as a fail, as I put large chunk of account seriously at risk.

Must got back to being professional :(
