Thoughts

A busy week.

Again BREXIT was in the news, with the British government going on its knees to Brussels to beg for an extension, despite having had over two and a half years to sort this out. 
You couldn't make this stuff up.

Equity markets were very volatile, with the FTSE making a new high for 2019 on Thursday, before dropping over 2% on Friday.

Difficult trading conditions, and I made some poor trade exits. Well above my 2.5% weekly benchmark though.

Looking forward to better trading opportunities next week.


Stay disciplined.

Stay focussed.

Stay humble.
