Trading for week 24 - June 9 - 13 2008

Trades I am looking at this week:

Long Scalp @ 209.37
Long Scalp @ 208.10
Short Scalp @ 204.47
Short Scalp @ 203.97

Short S/R @ 203.33
Short Scalp @201.51

I have removed the scalp line at 202.61 from my chart - I'm just not too sure about it any longer. So because of the doubt, I won't trade it.

I haver also re-opened my demo account, just until I get a micro account set-up. The demo account and then the micro account will be used to try out new things. I don't want to play around with my mini account yet due to it's small size.

I have been playing around for a while now with fractals in addition to existing S/R - scalp lines and trend lines... Will update this journal if the results are good.

Running total so far for week 24:

Scalp trades : 0 PIPS
Nick B S/R trades (4hr) : 0 PIPS

I you sure you ahve these the right way round?

The 202.60 line looks pukka to me and the 203.33 look dodgy?

Hi Rich,

I'm not sure about the 202.60 line - it reminds me of the 204.12 scalp 2 weeks ago - perhap's I'll re-eval at the time, dependant of news and time of day etc...

The reason I have 203.33 back on my chart is that price moved away from it at least 600 pips 2 weeks ago... Again though, I will eval the line near the time... If everything lines up and we have some good momentum I'll prob take the trade.

Plenty of lines before these two anyway, so I may not need to trade them - "hopefully"

Just to hijack Rogans journal: I think that they both look a little dodgy (but It may be that I'm just still smarting from last weeks scalp). 203.33 has the bonus that it could carry you right on through though.

I think Rogan's right: evaluating nearer the time seems like a wise option.

I like the rest of your lines there R.

I did not trade the scalp line 209.10 due to it being so close to news. Looks like it worked out for some people though.

09/6/2008 13:45 Long Scalp GBP/JPY 209.37 : +50 PIPS - Traded mini account

09/6/2008 15:25 Short EUR/USD 1.5681: +100 PIPS - Traded mini account
09/6/2008 18.23 Short EUR/USD 1.5642: +68 PIPS - Traded mini account

09/6/2006 EUR/JPY Long 166.16: +70 PIPS - Traded micro test account


Running total so far for week 24:

Micro test trades: + 70 PIPS
Scalp trades : +218 PIPS
Nick B S/R trades (4hr) : 0 PIPS
