Scalp journal – 1 December 2008

2 December, 2008 (17:16) | Journal | By: Colin McGinley

The start of a new week and new month sees the DOW tanking once again.

GBP/USD and EUR/JPY saw lots of movement today, especially during the London session, while EUR/USD was curiously quiet. An early indication of a potential breakdown of the tight correlation that has existed between the currency and equity markets for the past few months?

I kept the number of entries and amount of trade management required on the lower end as Monday was the last day of my extended Thanksgiving holidays.
