Thoughts


A volatile week on the equity market, the FTSE broke the recent high above 6700, then sold off on Thursday and into Friday morning, before rallying, then selling off to make a new low for the week on Friday afternoon. Very volatile conditions altogether.

I made over eighty trades, which is busy by my standards. Just scalping the index for crumbs really.

A few poor entries and exits, especially when I bought the FTSE in the early hours of Friday when the futures were pricing a serious drop at the open, then the market rallied strongly, oh well...

Still, well north of my 2.5 % benchmark.
 
Looking forward to more opportunities next month.




Stay disciplined.
Stay focussed.
Stay humble.
