18th August






New Positions:
  • AUDJPY long
  • AUDUSD long
  • Crude Oil long October Contract but using entry signal from September Contract

There is one thing all instruments have in common: The optimal point to take profits is at the 100% extension. However I would not exit a swing trade after just one day so for the very volatile crude oil market it was not a 100% extension but even a 161,80% extension where I closed the trade and since the GBPUSD is similar to GBPJPY I also closed it at the 61,80% extension since it had already a pretty good run down.

Closed Positions:
  • Crude Oil short 4,5 Points
  • GBPJPY short 890 Pips
  • CADJPY short 360 Pips
  • GBPUSD short 610 Pips
