it was a tougher day to trade as market was a bit choppy
by the time the mojo technical indicators flashed a sell signal around 1.6405 for gbpusd, the pair had already slided down quite a fair bit right before that. so i decided to short on smaller position at 1.6407.
10 minutes into the trade, the pair held up pretty well and eurusd started to rebound strongly (bear in mind eurusd has a positive correlation to gbpusd) so i decided to close my short position for gbpusd around 1.6399 and 1.6404 for a small profit of USD25.
thank god i did cos 10 minutes after i closed my short position, the gbpusd shot up like a rocket.
better have a small profit rather than a loss.
check point : up 0.3% for the 1st day of the month
November month performance was fantastic as the portfolio was up 48.58%, way above my target of 10% per month
Forex Trading Blog 30nov09 up 3.2% for the day up 48.6% for the month
Glad to start the week on the right footing
Mojo technical signals flashed a short signal for GBPUSD around 1.6540 level today so i entered short position at 1.6539 (slower by 1 pip which cost me USD10 bucks man hehe)
anyway, pleased with the outcome as the pair struggled for about 10minutes before sliding down rapidly…..i am usually not very patient when it comes to trading forex so i prefer to trade shorter time frame. so far, i am quite comfortable with the mojo combo signals using 5minute chart.
as i rode the downward momentum, i started taking partial profits along the way and closed all positions within an hour for USD232 profit.
check point for today : up 3.2% for the day, up 48.6% for the month

Dear mojo friends
Would like to share my personal forex trading experience with those who are interested in forex trading in addition to stock trading.
I have started a live demo account with usd5000 capital and let’s see how far this demo account can grow to over time…..
or it may go the other way and go bust overtime.
So far this month has been a good month with accumulated profit to date for november at usd2197.34
(up 43.9% from usd5000 initial capital in october)…..definitely no complains bout that
Today’s trade was great as you can see in the attached file below.
I shorted gbpusd at 1.6673 today and gradually closed out all positions with a nice profit of usd325 for the day(up 4.7% for the day).
Will continue to update my trading performance when ever I have the time.
