Spanish89- Opportunist Trades (2nd journal)

  1. Just got off the phone to them again and they are claiming that the market actually opened at 285.88....

    Even though their own platform showed that the highest deal price of the day was only 282.20!! :mad:


    Thankfully i took a screenshot of that, and so instead of wasting my time phoning them im just going to email their head-office, including the screenshot,
    and request to know why i have not been filled at the 1st available deal price of the day.


    If they fuck me around more i will actually take it to the FSA, as they already fucked me around on that motorla market move, and so im not going to take it again!!

  2. TRS

    TRS

    Yeah, it's really annoying when you get stuffed around and don't receive what you believe you're entitled and have to chase it up .....










    .....Bit like maxing credit cards and doing a runner!
    You're down what... 40 pounds. It's a cruel world :(

  3. Who gives a fuck about creditcards though?

    They are/were just free money, the banks didn't give a toss if you don't repay them as they just get money from the government to cover the loss they take,
    and the government doesn't care as they just turn on the printing press in the bank of england for a few hours extra to print out that extra cash.


    It caused inflation, but thats not bad as housing benefit rate increases are linked to inflation so im not out of pocket due to it,
    and if you have a brain you can easily make money out of inflation by having shorted gbp/usd.

  4. Am feeling extremely annoyed now as i watched as usd/jpy rocket up to 77.60, and pause there for a few seconds, where i was so soooo close to cashing in my trade there to nab £105 profit,
    and then hope that it fell back to 77.40 where i would have rebought,
    nabbing 20pips (£70 net profit).


    However i didn't cash it in as i knew that as soon as i did once again the market would suddenly rocket up 100pips and id miss out,
    so i held back.

    But sadly the market just slid all the way back down to 77.20 now!! :mad: :mad:



    Am getting ALOT of joy from seeing the 8% crash in the swiss franc though,
    as there must be so soooo many foolish idiot trend chasers out there who were holding short-sells, and then in seconds had the market gap 1,000s of pips against them totally destroying their accounts!! :D :cool: :p

  5. Ive just bought abit more usd/jpy at 77.16, target for entire trade remaining at 80.09

    Id also like to potentially resell coffee once more if we can get upto the 285/286 level.



    Im abit confused about how the americans will trade the swiss franc though,
    as when they wakeup and turn on their computers they will have already missed the huge 8% rally,
    and so im not sure if they will then try trend-chasing by having their own ''usa reaction'' to the move,
    or if they will short-sell it.

    As its the swiss franc move that caused the move in yen..

  6. Ive been scooping out profit and then re-buying at lower levels on my Japanese yen trade and have nailed an extra £76 profit from it this morning... :)

    I currently have just 1 buy contract left open from 77.40,
    but am going to re-buy 3 more contracts at 77.33.

  7. Ok im now just fedup with wasting my time fucking around with the bank of Japan as they are just a bunch of total utter pussies and wimps!!

    If i had an aircraft id actually fly to Japan and invade their shitty little country as they would be too pussy to even fight back against me! LOL



    And so ive lowered profit target to 77.89, and hopefully it will be hit today or tomorrow.

  8. I just wokeup and saw that my target order of 77.56 was reached,
    with the high of the day being only 4pips above it! :D

    But so my trade was cashed in making me another £65 profit.


    And im now sitting in 100% cash as have cashed in all my jpy trades.



    The next trade i want is to sell Crude Oil at between 89.45 - 89.63,
    with target price of 88.39.

  9. Just short-sold Oil at 89.46,
    target order set for 87.93.

    Have no problem or issue with holding this trade over the weekend too if needed before that level is hit. :)

  10. Just increased target order by 10ticks to 88.03, as tropical storm nate could likely become hurricane by weekend,
    and so i want to dump this trade before that happens.


    My entry was tick-perfect like normal though,
    as market only went 2ticks offside,
    and now has gone to 30ticks profit.. :)
