February 2012. results

-45 pips
-17%

Negative result purely because of bad attitude. It seams that I know how to trade but don't know how to handle myself. Many days leaving profit and running it into a loss. If for example I stayed with my big winning day of +27 pips at 23. and didn't trade any more my month would be positive. All those R profits switched to losses. I'm waging war with myself.

Eleven trading days:
1. +17 
14. -11 (at first positive for more then 5 pips)
15. -5 (positive at first 5 or more, R at least)
16. -7 (first wave +10, be, +15, loss)
17. -3 (profit of 10 left to go into loss)
20. -24 (first trade in positive around R left it to stop)
21. -4
22. +5
23. -19 ( first nice big win of around 15, loss -11, win more then 20, then from +27 to -19 madness)
24. -5
27. +11

Usd/jpy sell off

There was strong sell off in usd/jpy that I didn't notice until it was pretty much over. I tried to catch another leg down after bounce in eur/jpy. There wasn't second usd/jpy powered move just tryouts. Nevertheless movements were sufficient to make some profitable trades. It was very stimulating timing eur/jpy trades by watching usd/jpy and eur/usd movements. First trade should have been closed earlier and last one trailed a bit. Second entry was emotional getting in immediately after stop.
+11 pips


Friday

Market didn't advance after popping 1.3400, so two small losses. When I felt after the urge to recover the loss I immediately closed the platform. That's good step in wanted direction.

Making good day bad

First I was ashamed now I feel sad. From +27 I lost it all and then some. We can say that I hit invincibility tilt, but that doesn't change the fact that after so many years there is not a lot of improvement. Same mistakes all over again.
