19 September 2014 – EUR/AUD – I’ve doubled my short position …

The happy trader - EURAUD 19092014 long-legged doji - outside bar

Last 16 September the EUR/AUD tested the down trend line. I thought the price movement was a false penetration.

Today the currency pair has closed above the down trend line with a long-legged doji (which is a outside bar too). A sign of  indecision. Technically the trend line is now pierced, but the price movement hasn’t still violated the static resistance. Coherently with my trading idea (that I quote:”I sell at resistance and buy at support”), today I’ve doubled my short position in the EUR/AUD currency pair.

The more I trade, the more I lose. As I stated on 25 August, today I’ve stopped my long position in the EUR/CAD. The price movement has pierced the (supposed) triple bottom (now static resistance) with a nice long candle. Now there is a new good shaped down trend line. So I’ve reversed my position, by opening a short position in this currency pair. Suicidal trading …

25 August 2014 – EUR/CAD – I’ve just opened a new long position …

In line with what I stated two hours ago, I’ve just opened a new long position in the EUR/CAD (I’ve bought the currency pair at 1,4494). Supposing we are dealing with a triple bottom, there is a nice risk/reward ratio (stop loss: a daily close under the triple bottom). I’m wondering if I’m developing a suicidal trading style…
