Price went against me! The trade that was +33 at one point I had to close for -10, I guess I was a little greedy on this one since @+30 I got a signal to get out. yesterday i closed out my trades prematurely so I'm a little biased today.
I'm short now from 1.4472 currently around +20 if it goes against me again I will close for +5 or so.

I'm getting out now for +33. First because i got the same signal to get out now on the opposite direction so lets not be greedy.
Second because I have to work on my remodeling. I need this office ready ASAP, since I'm up for the day/week let me take advantage of it and put extra work hours on my garage 😀

Gosh! Thats why i find parallel activities incompatible with Forex trading.
Usually when I'm doing my remodeling I turn my computer off. Today I left it on while working. Came here on the triple bottom @ 1.4440 and decided to try a long.
Price went immediately in my favor and at some point I was +30. Than I went back to work ( hoping for 1.45) and lost track of time.
Came back right now to see that my -15 stop loss was triggered.
Darn! Will I ever learn? Trading is trading, if I can't dedicate 100% of the time to it it is better to turn the computer off.

Woke up late today, just to see that E/U tanked. Adding the mess i did yesterday it makes me get to the conclusion that I'm not trading professionally at all.
Well till mid August it will be like that due to parallel activities that I can't avoid.
It seems that the main movement is gone, lets see If i will be able to trade at all today or not.

Took a long at the retest of 4270. Going long after a steep down move like this is riskier but when you have a signal you have a signal.
Currently up 20 pips and if price comes down again I'm closing for +5 no BE on this one.

btw, I draw all these lines few days ago just to see what eur/usd would be doing about them. there is a lot of trading opportunities long or short. not on 1 min chart obviously.
obviously everyone sees things differently but here I see excellent trading opportunities. I traded currencies the last in February and market now is excellent by comparison for prolonged moves.
here is what I draw few days ago.

I trade technically Chikot but big fundamental things can't be disregarded.
If the debt issue goes south IMHO people will freak out and sell stocks meaning going to cash, meaning demand for dollars, meaning E/U going down.
Than if things don't get reorganized quick, people will park all that money on gold and silver.
If the politicians get to agree on something and the fears are muffed than people will jump or riskier stuff again and the pair will go back up.

I hate fundamentals and too much news this is why i do not trade currencies. I also trade technically but have no understanding of fundamental things. Currencies are ephemeral things. Because they are not a real stuff like commodities they are subject to too much influence from all corners.
I also wonder, if you pay attention to fundamentals, why you trade from 1 min chart? it is scalping, right? I know one guy who is 'great' fundamental scalper, lol. Bruce, you might be reading this 😁
