244 | +0.72% | 3 Setups

after the ECB Interest rate decision following predictions resulting from Draghi’s speech,
one of the smaller accounts even managed a 98% gain, which computes to a total Capital gain of almost 2.7%.

as a result of that:
EnFoid will make an additional Dividend Payment on top of the already set Dividend.
as a token of appreciation, since this is only possible with the help of the EnFoid Lenders.


yesterday (again) the haters blamed for being a gambler and whatnot.
of course, after I showed that the call to buy #EURAUD was made about 3 hours before the ECB announcement on Twitter, the usual lectures about how to trade news are starting. (i use Twitter, as this tweets cannot be edited)

anyway, I tend to do things and not so much talking about them,
instead of talking and not doing.

there is a difference between gambling and executing a plan to maintain risk.


okay .. done with the rant, let’s start the day:

06:22 we had some interesting moves Yesterday, Tuesday did not trade the ECB news on the main accounts, but doubled one of the small accounts in the process, of course, based on overleveraged scalping (that’s why I never do this stuff with big money, as it can go bad very easy and very fast). anyway. today is expected to be quiet, however, USDCHF and a few others did in the last US Session completely retrace the drop. and DXY seems to be on the way up now.Currency Data now:

  • Positive: CHF, USD, EUR  
  • Negative: GBP, AUD, NZD
  • Neutral: CAD
  • Pair(s) to Watch: GBPCHF (Sell)
  • Asia Session Events:Monetary Policy Meeting Minutes [Yen]
  • Bank Holiday in Australia, India

05:49 Buying USDJPY, which went bad very quickly, hedged.

Starting the day with a loss of 0.506%

06:45 using the News (Japanese Monetary Policy) to leverage myself out of the loss. closing hedge and gaining 1.738%
