09:23 Buying GOLD, maybe not such a wise idea as we at the Pivot we have about 80pips to the upper trendline

09:24 Shorting USDJPY for a quick scalp

09:29 manually hedging USDJPY, reversing is quickly after to a long position.
this move is likely only the reaction of the Nikkei retracing to the vWap.. so caution

09:48 Scaling in in GOLD buy at the vWap, this may not work though, there is very little volume right now.

10:15 buying USDJPY for 112.791

10:20 Adding 40% to the USDJPY Position, as the Nikkei crosses the vWap.

11:44 scaling in USDJPY 60%

12:45 Closing USDJPY and GOLD with a small gain paying for about half of the hedges I made before.
USDollar starts to drop. so things may change. generally, the target of 112.791 still stands for USDJPY.

 

13:03 Buying Gold for 1277

13:10 the gold trade was a bad idea we right at a major trendline

15:09 scaling out 15% as volatility picks up and the direction is not exactly clear yet.
the Euro gaining massive .. this may lead to a USDJPY drop.

15:26 reversing all positions to sell (still above vWap, but the evidence that price will fall is overwhelming.) realizing a 2.9% loss.

15:35 closing 50% of the sell Sell positions gaining 0.98%

15:41 re-entering USDJPY sell

16:17 exit USDJPY Sell on Trendline. however, the trendline broke and there is another one just a few points below. so i re-entered with scalp positions downwards to it and exited with a tiny gain. all together gained 1.1015%

 

Closing up Shop for today, it’s been serval hours for such a small gain, it can’t get any better i guess. and we should not push the luck. calling it a Green Friday
