Asia all red. Flop Australia - 1,45%

Gold further down to @ 1911

Numbers: US employment outside agriculture 14:30,

Speeches: ECB president Lagarde 18:45 - about interest shift when and how much

DAX pre cash 7:30 @ 15557 -- higher than the low of yesterday (@ 15492)
The bottom yesterday had been reached by the level given on April 5th.

Today a green bias. A trade decision will be made on 9:30
We have seen 3 isolated islands (last 3 days). Normally there is no 4th one...
Pre cash is within yesterday's range - thus the green bias underlined.

MEA CULPA

Today - everything was good. In the morning:
• preparation was good
• a long was on the table
• the call was near excellent in the timing
• the trade ending before US numbers was risk free

What happened?
I did not allow the trade at the beginning to get lower than yesterday's low.
That was crucial:
Instead of a winner I stopped @ -15 points.
Letting the trade making -25 points today (my rule normally 30p) it could make
within the trading time: PLUS 145 points. A difference of 160 points.

Not finished here: Watch the rocket after the US number (14:30) - running up to 15662 to just return back. Amazing.

Rounding up: Just the last 5% killed everything. It was my fat finger in the morning - lol.

KEEP COOL - and earn :-))) Trading not by AI, but by a human!

Happy Weekend
