-I'm not really proud of my averaging in eurjpy, risking much for no good reason. If I don't know where to put stop or don't want to accept that it's time for stop it's better not to trade that trade
- I'm far better in those nice scalping situation when stop or gain is quick and definite

+5 pips
- various sizes
- news trade with limit orders didn't work (no spike) so I canceled them




Thursday, March 14, 2013

+3 pips


+9 pips
- this news trading turns out to be quite nice sport
- third of usual size because on previous reports there were whipsaws, in previous few occasions move wasn't so big and lasted really only as initial spike that's why I closed it immediately
- good news after bad news in which Google announced shut down of Google reader


Wednesday, March 13, 2013

+6 pips
- not so good not knowing where my actual stop is, wan't prepared for this type of market action, I expected something easier
- half size trades


Tuesday, March 12, 2013

+15 pips

- I don't know why I didn't use before those bracket limit orders before the news if execution on Oanda is so good
- half size trades
- again problem with second add on trade, I just lowered my overall profit, move concentration away from first trade and made an exit at worst possible time
- third trade ok
- last two trades maybe holding on one of them longer
