It was a boring week. 0 profits in total.
The currencies and metals were stagnant. It was as if the market was taking a break or waiting for something big to come. Nonetheless, one should stick to plan and not open a new trade recklessly just for the sake of chasing the trend or just because of FOMO (fear of missing out).
That being said, I opened a new DOT/USD grid. The DOT is Polkadot, a cryptocurrency with high potential, one which I had traded a few months back and one which I have been monitoring for sometime and am familiar with. As one might have noticed, my grids are usually either all long trades, or all short trades. I generally do not play a mixture of both long and short trades in a single grid.
For DOT/USD, I managed to open 2 long trades before prices went up again. If it does not reverse its price direction, maybe I will be contented to profit with only 2 small trades.
