BP Chart 30th July 2013

Summary Week Ended Friday 26th July 2013

12 stock trades:

9 BLT + 89.77 BPS

3 GLEN - 162.78 BPS

Stocks net  - 73.00 BPS

Long and short trades, intraday and overnight.

No Index trades.

I traded 5 days this week.



Thoughts

A difficult week, although I actually made a small overall £ profit, since my trades in GLEN were very small size compared to BLT, as this is the first time I have traded GLEN (GLEN recently merged with Xstrata which I used to trade quite regularly). My exits on GLEN were very poor.

Quite a volatile week all in all, FTSE was down 75 from last Friday.




Stay disciplined.

Stay focussed.

Stocks net  + 30.25 BPS

Thoughts

Another shortened week for me. I struggled to find trades this week.

There was also the distraction of some great mountain stages on the  Tour De France.



Stay disciplined.

Thoughts

Another shortened week this week. Markets headed higher but the FTSE is still well below the highs it reached in May.
