09:18 Buy GOLD

09:22 GOLD almost immediately dropped .. hedged

09:55 Selling GOLD

09:58 Hedging GOLD manually at 0.4% Drawdown.

10:05 WOOOOW DXY !! (this can not be true!)

it wasn’t true, see here a comparision

10:41 Reversing Gold Hedge anyway (likely to be a mistake, since the DXY move is very very unlikely to be true)

12:53 selling half the GOLD position and hedging the rest, paying for half the previous loss

14:30 re-Hedging GOLD Buy

14:32 looks like this was a bad idea, releasing hedge for a 1.1% loss.

14:49 turned out the release was a bad idea, SwingFish Helper hedged the position again.

16:48 selling the hedge and part (about 40%) of the GOLD Trade as it’s way too large now.
a small spike up would have put me into breakeven, but a spike down (which is more likely now) could cause a massive loss.
so we take what we have, re-hedge with a good gain .. leaving an equity loss of 1.8% on the market (but a save one as it’s hedged)

17:04 releasing GOLD hedge (that may be a FOMO thing) .. to make things worse, added a few Oz to the position.

17:15 we right in front of the Pivot now plus I have no real Target to Take the profit at … somethings telling me i should get out of this as long it is green.

17:35 Closing all trades

Total Today: +1.21%
