07:19 Very late again this Tuesday

Yesterdays expected USDollar move put some shaking in the Divergences .. but that is good for us day-traders, as this will be boiled out very soon, and the boiling out is where we make the $$ 😉

Today
Positive: GBP, NZD, AUD, 
Negative: CHF, USD, EUR
Japanese Yen almost Neutral .. that’s a first 

09:07 Quick Selling AUDUSD to make my mark in todays P/L
pretty much catching a falling knife, but its not falling at free fall, so it’s controllable for a quick scalp

09:12 closing AUDUSD Sell with a 0.959% gain

09:28 thinking on buying AUDJPY .. looks very much sloping up.

09:31 Lucky, didn’t Buy it

09:44 Selling EURUSD

09:46 the EURUSD sell does not look so good now after entering comparing with USDollar Index

09:48 Hedging EURUSD with -2.6 pips

10:20 AUD News coming up. will use the volatility to scalp myself out of the EURUSD Hedge.

RBA Interest Rate Decision RBA Interest Rate Decision is announced by the Reserve Bank of Australia. If the RBA is hawkish about the inflationary outlook of the economy and rises the interest rates it is positive, or bullish, for the AUD. Likewise, if the RBA has a dovish view on the Australian economy and keeps the ongoing interest rate, or cuts the interest rate it is seen as negative, or bearish.

10:30 News is neutral .. but we are not interested in the results anyway,
just playing on the Volatility in the direction of the Divergences.

Buying AUDNZD .. and scaled in about 15 sec. later 100% after it dropped 12.3 pips.

10:33 hitting close all after AUDNZD Spikes up

AUDNZD it will very likely go up for at least another 20 pips, and then fall back to the vWap.
but we use this trade to pay for losses. Luckily slippage was on my side, resulting in a total gain of 2.138% for today.

Total Gain Today: 2.138% (grand Total today: +3.16%, with the scalps below)

### Live Stream ends here ###

as promised, AUDNZD retraced back 100% to the vWap just 40 Minutes later
it’s all just “Hot Air”

12:43 selling EURUSD for a quick fun-scalp

12:52 close EURUSD shorts gaining another 0.36% (this gain adds not to the stats .. was just for fun)
price likely to fall more to 1.16005 or even 1.580

15:11 another quick scalp on USDJPY (sorry could not resist) 😉 closing with +1.557%

Grand Total today: +3.695%, including the quick trades.

186 | +2.18% | 3 Setups

Good Monday Morning

06:18 Morning everyone

NZD swang up massive resulting of Yesterdays night-spikes … its still unclear what caused that moe .. but there is some corrections be expected today or tomorrow.

Divergence data
Positive: GBP, EUR
Negative: JPY, CHF

06:23 Buying AUDUSD

09:26 Scaling in 100% on AUDUSD Buy

09:31 did not work .. hedging with 3.3 pips .. not life-ending stuff, just a bad start.

06:52 place Buy Limit GBPCHF with a target of 36 pips .. (upper trendline)

06:56 delete Buy Limit on GBPCHF (better wait for Tokyo open)

06:57 reversing AUDUSD Hedge .. realizing a 2.14% loss
06:57 SwingFish Helper Algo did auto hedge just a few sec later .. as the price went down again.

10:04 closed with half the loss back in all AUDUSD trades as we reached the trendline.

10:09 got me in a Gold mess  (sorry no entry screenshot)
hedged twice realized a tiny profit .. but account still down 1.54%

11:10 after a lot of up and downs .. I put a final 100% hedge on .. waiting for a better location.
still long bias .. but the USDollar does not cooperate.

11:15 meanwhile the GBPCHF trade which i did NOT take .. worked out well ..

11:21 reversing GOLD hedge to buy positions.
maybe not so good idea as we are right at the trendline now ..

16:20 .. going out .. gold trades are still on
set SwingFish helper to sell everything once P?L goes green

23:19 Swingfish Helper closes all Trades with good profit, adding a gain of 3.73%

Total Loss Today: 2.185%

Thursday

09:01 Morning everyone

NZD swang up massive resulting of Yesterdays night-spikes … it’s still unclear what caused that move (but I personally do care very little about it anyway) there are however some corrections be expected today or tomorrow.

Divergence data
Positive: CAD, EUR, CHF
MASSIVE Negative: GBP

will post a Pre-NFP Update later on Divergences data.

09:46 quick Short Scalp AUDUSD to S1 (no other technical reason to do that, besides the momentum)

09:47 Price pulls back .. Closing AUDUSD Short scalp with 0.175% gain.
09:48 re-enter AUDUSD Short (i always want to trade the same price range twice .. )

09:57 exit re-short AUDUSD

got my Double trade at the same price, stop playing around now !!

will go take a shower, back in a little bit.

10:54 being bored, buying GBPAUD for a little bit up

was thinking of selling AUDJPY on the vWap for 7.5 pips
and buying CADJPY on the vWap for 5.5 pips but do not do it

11:06 hedging GBPAUD Buy.
it’s not yet out of the setup, but the position size is too large, so we take care of this a bit later when volatility is higher.

12:10 the CADJPY trade (which I did not take) worked out fine .. but the AUDJPY trade went slightly above vWap.

12:25 Closing GBPAUD Hedge for 0.18% profit, leaving the long position exposed on a 7pip gap.. (that could end up being expensive.

12:35 reversing GBPAUD again to be a Hedge, adding another 0,09% to the account.
It is likely to go up now to my original target 50’ish pips up, but this setup is not so clear yet.

12:40 .. the possible trade on AUDJPY did play out after all .. now both would have been green .. sad i did not really trade them.

13:05 Reverse GBPAUD Hedge to Buy .. double the position and risk

13:11 Closing all Positions with 4.011% total gain (i’m still convinced the original targets of 1.70341 – 1.70661 are still in play)
but I have to leave the house now.

### have to do School Run now, stopping stream here, we may have another NFP Session, later on ###

181 | +4.289% | 2 Setups

Monday Morning

sorry guys, no Divergence data or Live-Stream Today.
im still off .. and the internet is terrible (but the beach is nice .. you can see it here)

08:45 Buying AUDUSD … just a quick look at the structure suggested me a 12 pip move.

08:53 .. too much action around here (kids, peoples, staff, whatever … I thought its holiday ?)
08:53 Closing AUDUSD Trade with barely 1 pip, gaining 0.12% (better than nothing)

### Stream Starts here ###

21:00 finally back home … firing up the Trade Computer .. in urgent need to put on something to make my Mark 😉

21:20 Quick Shorting GOLD
back to the vWap .. as the price just a few minutes ago hit the top of the channel.
Risk Reward Ratio Sucks .. as the price can easily go back up …
and guess what ? it did get up .. instead of hedging .. I scaled in.

21:30 Closing GOLD Shorts adding 4.169% to the account .. Yay .. that was a short session indeed!

Gain Today: 4.289%

P.S. glad I did exit early .. price went as expected, back up to the channel Top, it will go down, no doubt, but t his swings can cost a lot of money!

1089   October 3, 2017 23:46   SwingFish   Trading Room Journal   AUDUSD • GBPAUD • GOLD • NZDUSD • USDSGD

this was Day 22

by far .. a more interesting Tuesday Morning as yesterday was dead Boring !

DXY di raise up quite good, but as we know, this may change on the session change the Europe.

GBPAUD Short was first .. price bouncing along the vWap, it looks kind of Short’ish so lets do it.
exit at Trendline that marks the Flag Pattern.

Next one was NZDUSD, went short first, with S1 as Target, which went bad rather quickly.
reversed the trade to long .. went out with -3.1 and +1.7 .. breakeven

Very quick AUDUSD Scalp .. which turned out rather depressing as the price did drop massively due to news .. FOMO .. but thats okay .. not trading it and risking it all. just the +1 on AUDUSD are good enough.

Last one .. GOLD .. same scenario .. vWap trade in the wrong Direction ..
reversed quickly .., and while writing this its still open.

while waiting for the Gold Trade to play out (which is not going well btw) as the USDollar starts to flicker
i saw a nice possible reversal on USDSGD .. placing a BUY LIMIT order a bit above the vWap.

USDSGD Pending Order Deleted, after price reversed before it was filled.
GOLD caused a loss .. eliminating almost all gains.

Closing this Tuesday Morning out with a Gain of 0.12% (Green Zero)
