Uncle's Trading Journal

read the near double qoute from a poster on another site,couldnt find any article on it zeroedge has one ,much lower rise in margin
 
I can't make up my mind on whether this is a good spot to buy the EUR/SLV or whether this is a sign of the beginning of the turnaround phase?
 
Obama to make a late night statement -- no hint at topic.. highly unusual -- could come as early as 10:30pm

Edit: topic is national security

Edit2: speech moved to 10:40 - 10:45 -- wonder whether this will be good or bad for the dollar..
 
I probably took 20 trades in the last hour -- was all over the place my P&L was up and down hugely.. think now I am back on the down cycle.. Obama about to speak in a second
 
nothing of significance.. was an action-packed session with the silver collapse and the Osama announcement..

unfortunately, finding these volatile sessions don't mesh well with my trading style yet.. find myself setting stops and then violating my stops half way through when it moves a few pips against me -- only for the market to reverse before it hits my stop and then come back my way..

have to learn to set the right stops and entry points for that matter and stop getting "excited" by the action..
 
Account value 18,755.. going to bed now.. this is still prior to the 1,250 withdrawal.. going on vacation for a week starting Tuesday..
