00:44 very Early Friday Morning, ill try to catch some percentages in the early morning, as we know Fridays are “strange” sometimes and the Market movements in the last 12 hours suggest that there will be some great consolidations coming up for this Asia and EU Session. (more…)

05:58 Good Monday Morning everyone, last Friday had very little to offer, so I thought the Asia Session this Monday may be the same kind of slow, but watching AUD and USD moving I may be wrong. keep in mind, divergence data is still very thin. (more…)

05:58 Following the FOMC Speeches, the USDollar Rose quite a large bit, let’s hope this will not retrace all the way back today, and if it does, we better in the trades. also, the Crypto drama seems to have an end already, I bought #XRP (Ripple) at 0.88 and look at that it’s already back to 1.20$. divergences are bad as all major movers are positive. (except Japanese Yen and the Euro). also, there are quite a number of high impact news for Australia, Japan and China. (more…)

2417   November 10, 2017 04:09   SwingFish   Trading Room Journal   GBPJPY

00:52 starting a super early session today

Today
Positive: AUD, USD 
Negative: CHF, EUR, JPY

lines go somewhat “flat” .. which is usually an indication for some nice range moves to come up.
however, the Nikkei Index was falling quite heavy .. dragging JPY Pairs down with it.

but it apears this time is right the turning pint for the Nikkei Index.

01:00 Buying GBPJPY
for some reason, there was some massive spike in volatility,
even there is no news scheduled, so we take the action.

01:00 price Quickly falls back .. we Scale in 50%

01:03 closing out the trade-set just 189 sec. later ripping 10.22% out of the market.

01:04 buying again for a small scalp as volatility is still there closing with another 0.62% gain, totaling now 10.84%

should call it a day, since this is a massive gain

01:17 re-entered GBPJPY Buy .. which turned out quickly to be a very bad idea …
closed 50% of the position with a 4.2% Loss .. I will leave the rest running since we can afford a bit drawdown now.

I should have listened to myself, and called it a day ..but no Greed .. made me give it all back!

02:30 quick update .. the no-brain-Buy on GBPJPY still running .. bouncing along the line .. but it appears to be more downwards, kind of hoping for a retest of the vWap to exit all positions and really calling it a day.

somethings, however, telling that this may not happen and instead of being grateful for the 10% gain we gonna book a massive loss instead. let’s wait it out a little bit longer.

03:30 exiting the trade-set at the vWap .. getting back almost all of the previous gains

price is VERY likely to get up at least 45 pip more to somethings around 149.25 (just some guess)

that does happen if you do not follow the rules:

• only sell below vWap
• immediately hedge .. regardless of volatility!

Anyway Total Gain Today: 7.029% (quite a good Birthday Session)

189 | +3.957% | 8 Setups

02:44 a VERY Early Thursday Session (i may trade later again, but can’t promise anything as i may be a bit busy today)

02:59Buying USDJPY

03:01Scaling in USDJPY and Buying GOLD for a quick jump up

03:05Close GOLD Trade for a small gain.

03:18Closing USDJPY with a small gain (i had it hedged in between .. so this trade was about preserving Capital)
as the upper trendline was the original Target.

03:39Buying USDJPY again, which was stupid, as the price reached the upper trendline already.

also, the DXY at the vWap and Gold just fall back to the vWap as well.
as a result, Reversed USDJPY to Short (realizing a 1.2% loss) and Bought Gold.

03:47Close USDJPY Sell for a nice Profit.

03:47Close GOLD Buy as well with a small Profit

03:57Buy GBPJPY

03:57 price suddenly dropped on GBPJPY .. so I scaled in 2 times until it bounced off the vWap

04:14Closing all GBPJPY Trades, price surely going all the way to 149.42,
but at this time I will just take the profits and let it be. (feel not so confident)

### Stream Stops here ###

and just as promised .. price went right with the next candle all the way up to the Trendline.

11:14 some mass scalping parallel on GBPUSD, GBPJPY and USDJPY.
only the USDJPY trade worked out .. and paid for all the other hedged trades

USDJPY very likely to fall to the 113.80 area.

11:52 wow that call went down really fast. “113.8 as promised”

Total Gain Today: 3.957%

184 | +8.743% | 4 Setups

Thursday

09:01 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: AUD, CAD
Negative: GBP, JPY, CHF

09:03 quick CADJPY Scalp down for 3.4 pips .. did not work so well hedge placed just about 2 minutes later.

there is a high chance it may still fall .. but they may be an up-swing first, that’s why the hedge is the saver option.

09:16 Reversing hedge to buy CADJPY (double buy position)

09:26 Closing out all CADJPY positions with 0.552% total account gain. price may go up to 88.91 on CADJPY .. but this was a hedged Setup, so damage control first.

10:09 Buy GBPJPY and BuyLimit order GBPJPY on the vWap a few pips down to auto scale-in.

10:28 BuyLimit GBPJPY Filled (i may exit this one early once it’s paid for .. )

10:35 manually hedge the whole GBPJPY Position .. it swung down a lot, bias is still upwards with 151.451 as a goal
the position is too large for a swing down.

going to have Breakfast 😉

11:50 Buying GBPUSD

11:55 Scaling in 50% on GBPUSD Buy while in loss

12:10 Hedging GBPUSD, waiting on both GBPJPY and GBPUSD for Frankfurt opening to get some short-term direction

12:32 Reverse GBPJPY Hedge. Realising 0.52% loss to the account. waiting for the hedge pays for the loss to exit.

12:43  Closing GBPJPY to pay for hedged positions, adding 1.68% to the account (Total now: 1.467%)

the original target for that trade on GBPJPY was 151.451

12:53 Reversing GBPUSD hedge in the middle of the field .. that could turn bad quickly the original target of 1.32962 is still in play

the reason was the dollar index appears to be continuing the way down, but that’s may more of an excuse

13:00 did not work out, hedging again 1.81% loss

off bring Wife to work .. let’s see what London has to offer later .. leave the hedge position on

14:21 Reversed everything downwards, added about 25% more to short positions .. targeting the trendline connects the waves on the 1 Hour Chart.

14:42 Closing all positions as there was a tiny pullback .. (the trendline maybe not correct)

have not looked the Gains while this trade was on .. and wow .. that last trade added MASSIVE to the account!

Closing up Today with a Total Gain of 8.743%
