These markets are really p*ssing me off! There has been absolutely no movement in anything! My EURAUD is just swaying back and forth between profit and loss. Hopefully this journal can start to pick up some pace in the weeks to come.

10% Profit Per Month

Quick update on the EURAUD. I am now back in the green with 175 pips of profit. I am still looking for another 200-300 pips more on this trade but will watch it closely when it approaches last weeks highs. Nothing else is interesting at the moment.
