This day in review: I would have made (or equally hypothetically could have lost, which is why I abstained) shitloads if I had decided to take weekend gap risk and sit on corona virus position (China A50 short) that I had earlier. Instead I tried to intraday trade a bit - much like previous days however, these trends are not as easily traded for me as those triggered by very specific news events (e.g. NFP or FOMC). Overall I've acted like an afraid rabbit when I finally got some screen time (even tried to trade US open at my father's place as per above), but to be fair it's I just need one big win per month to make up for lots empty handed days. If I can learn (or automate) to trade these thematic trends better I will earn a lot more, however.
BCOUSD position from last week was just awful, but fortunately very small (~20kusd position size). Unfortunately, the most likely to break my rules is also the time where I am less likely to make sensible decisions (i.e. tiredness). Still up slightly from Friday, in spite of last couple losing NQ trades. Still sit at ~+7k for Jan, though it would be really nice to hit +10k by Fed Wednesday. -.-
