Using Evernote to create trading journal

by Leave a Comment

I don’t have trade to share today, instead, I am thinking of sharing the ‘tool of the day’ to my readers 🙂 . I have recently start using Evernote on my iPhone and laptop as my digital assistant. And today, I thought I would try to integrate the tool to my daily routine – market review, and journaling. And, I am truly impressed by the tool.

Here is a short video clip I have created.

And you can login to Evernote’s website to view your saved journals from any computer, or read it from your mobile phone. Here is the snapshot of my iPhone.

I love the tool. And , this is my personal review of Evernote, and I am no affiliate to them. Just another tool to share, check it out.

Trade of the day 30 June 2010: $AUDUSD Long

by Leave a Comment

Hello from Jakarta, Indonesia. I will be trading from here for the next couple of weeks. All right, back to business. I was looking at AUDUSD to rebound from 85 level.  It did, however, it did not meet my final profit target, and, hell, I made an unusual panic exit today. Not impressed by myself.

Anyway, I thought the chart looks beautiful and it is worth sharing. This trade was off 5-minute chart, as I didn’t find a better stop level in bigger time frame today.

Here is the… CHART!

I have made some mistakes this week, well, stupid mistakes. Anyway, I think  one of the essential trading skills is to learn how to pull yourself back after making mistakes, and bad trades.   Anyway, enough crying like a kid, I am still trading throughout the week. I thought the $GBPUSD short is worth sharing here.

I entered the short position near 1.5 area since Thursday session,  2 profit targets were achieved. This is not an easy trade, price was swinging around before actually moving in my favor.

Here is the…. CHART.

Trade of the day 16 June 2010: $EURUSD short

It was a busy London open. Pullback of EURUSD provided some good shorting opportunities. Price action was slow during Asian hours, and failed to test yesterday’s high. I was a little bit late, short was made at the lower limit of my entry range. It was a quick profitable trade. Two profit targets were achieved, with 1 still trailing. This is just another simple technical trade.

Here is the chart…

I thought I was going to call it a week early, but Cable gave me some bonus before the weekend. I was looking to short $GBPUSD around 1.48 area, however, the sluggish price action around 1.47 and yesterday’s high prompted me to give it a short earlier. 2 profit targets were achieved, and 1 still trailing. I am considering to buy some around 1.46, let’s see.

Here is the CHART!

Have a great weekend!
