EurCad


This trade was stopped out.

I think I'm beginning to be a bit sloppy in my trade selections. I need to be more picky the next time I assess potential setups.

So near, yet so far


Missed my take profit target for a few pips, before price reversed and took me out for a small loss. Luckily I was able to trail my stop in time.

Nope, it bombed out on a wacky Friday night. I was quite nervous on this trade, and my premonition turned out to be true!

Well, enjoy the weekend, folks!

Losing Trades

Lost both of my USD.CHF & EUR.GBP trades today. I am now hitting a losing streak, particularly during this week.

I have to admit, my confidence did take a bit of a knock. So the sensible thing to do now, is to reduce my risk amount per trade.......until I feel better again. In other words, I'll still trade as per normal, but with reduced amount at risk.

Well, the fat lady did sing!


Lost this trade. There was simply nothing that I could have done in terms of trade management.

All part & parcel of trading.

Losing Trade


Well, it HAD to happen......sooner or later. Scored a loss on my EUR.GBP trade, when it reversed (possibly due to News announcement).

I need to pay more attention on news, as I've already got nailed 3 times due to news.

Speaking of news, we're going to be getting a slew of them. So I'll need to be selective on my trades.

Signing off for the week


My aussie dollar trade was stopped out when news came out concerning the USD. Trend line was broken, and well, that's the end of the trend.

This Soshi Taste Bitter!


Howzat, huh? Well, I lost the cad.jpy trade. I did not wait for breakout-pullback-continuation pattern to develop, before pulling the trigger.

I guess we all have our own demons to fight with.

Bitter Fruit


Lost this trade, when the trend line was broken.

Over & Out!


Well, the news announcement came, and it kicked me out of my aussie dollar trade. There's no excuse......I really screwed myself up on this trade.

I KNEW when the news was coming, and I still entered my order - despite knowing that I'll be walking on thin ice.

Why?

Simple.

I was greedy.

Enough said!

The Swing That Did Not Take Place...


Well, I got "swung out" of my GBP.CAD trade, as soon as the London boys came into the picture.

Another Loss


Trail stop hit on my CAD.JPY trade. Lucky it wasn't a full loss. That's what the trailing stop is there for.
