Rob's Trading Diary

Going to post up my watch list for next week and they are all looking bullish!!

first up we have BskyB again, you might remember me talking about going short on the pin bar a few days ago, well that would have come in nicely as you will see by the chart but like i said then the spread and R/R was not good enough at the time.

But anyway here is the chart for next week

Pro's

50/200 EMA's going up
Pin bar through 50/200 EMA
Pin bar through 61.8% Fib
In a bullish channel
MACD and RSI rising
1:2 R/R

Cons

Again the spread is large
The pin is not perfect (the close of the bar is just outside the eye of the previous) bar)

Heres the chart any questions/suggestions please ask!

Centrica is also on my watch list for next week,

looking to buy on the break of the pin bar,

Pros
MACD and RSI showing negative divergence
Pin bar through strong resistance
Can get a good R/R (1:2) without having to break through a major number (300)

Cons
50/200 EMA Bearish
Would ideally my target would not be near a major number

Heres the chart so you can have a look

Thanks

Rob

only one trade on the radar for tomorrow and that is BskyB there was a nice pin bar 2 days ago, then a break now a retrace for a good Risk/Reward ratio so I'm going to look to go long tomorrow if nothing dramatic happens during the opening 30 mins or so (depending when i can check the markets while in work)

Pros
pin bar through 200/50EMA
Pin bar on the bottom of upward channel
Pin bar through 61.8% fib
EMA's looking to turn bullish
Good Risk/Reward (even with the unbelievable spread!)

Cons
RSI + MACD didn't make new highs along with price during the previous high

So heres the chart

Any feedback/suggestions let me know
