Two And Done…. At a Loss 2012/03/13

Started out in with a 8 ticks loss, which was a bummer, but I came back. The second trade, I jumped out at 3 ticks, right at around 808.5 when it started getting “noisy”. Since it was a counter trend trade, I like to jump out quicker. Waited around for a re-entry short but did [...]

6J Yen Trading Back to Normal 2012/02/16

It has been a horrible first month of the year for me. The volatility was has been horrible. But last week, I think we started getting tradable (is tradable a word ?) volatility. It has held up so far and the Greek thing is … well …. Greek. It should not have a effect on [...]
