Snuskpelle's (kind of) Intraday Adventures 2019

And stopped... NAV 20343

Market being choppy like check, not nicely trendy, so waiting a while until re-entering to see if something develops. Some CPI figure in 40 min, will check back after that.
 
Moving gold stop to 1296.01. Basically, a bit afraid of bounce down from 1300 if it doesn't manage to break through (already looking failed but giving it minor room to change since "looking" is rarely good evidence in this business).
 
Too tight stops of equity positions today, should have permitted some risk. Gonna leave it like this though as entering at this point when I would have made money on my original position is fairly sub-optimal unless I would have a strong idea on why the rally today should continue. The strongest indicator it should is probably Fan27's algo position, lol
 
NAV 20506, finally a winning streak after long time of nothing. Highly loaded account and fluid equity though.

Previous conclusions (e.g. non-systematic stops botching my attempts at intraday trades) remain valid. Profits coming from overnight held positions.
 
Buy EURGBP x 45000 @ 0.8637 stop 0.8618

I'm not very educated about the dynamics of Brexit, but there seems to me to be ample room to retrace to the upside still based on December. Minor bet for coming month or so in case it takes off north. the downside is I'm betting on the already known result which is in risk of mean reversion from a previous move in light of voting result, but outsized reward to risk is worth it as long as stop holds.

Could have saved some money on spread by entering on a different time of day, but w/e.
