3 Trades today, -10 pips on USDCAD and then these two (-10, +20, +40). Looks like I got lucky on a news release. I forgot all about it while I was in the trade.

Two trades today. The second one happened very fast right at the close of the hour, 10 and 25 pips on the two halves of the trade.

Single trade day. 10 pips first half, 20 pips second half. Cos, I use Oanda.

I woke up late today and the charts just looked sloppy to me and lots of news to trade around. The charts had lots of long wicks and overlapping candles. Only picked up 7 pips on 2 trades but I'm done for the day. The EURUSD is a nice example of when sometimes it better to take a 1 pip gain over a 1...

I stick with EURUSD GPBUSD USDCAD USDCHF. They provide ample opportunity. I'm a red rat and I only trade for a couple hours at the London open.
