2011-06-07th (Tues)

At the end of the previous trading session I had no open positions.

In today's trading session there were two interesting events that pushed the undercurrents to move along;

1)  President Ogama and German Chancellor Angela Merkel's meeting and press release.

2)  Federal Reserve Chairman Benjamin Bernanke's press release and subseqent Q&A.

Ultimately as a Trader only the trades matter;
Buy-To-Open 300000 USDJPY at 79.968 (2011-06-07, 23:21 pm EST)

Currently I have the following position;
Long 300000 USDJPY with ACB of  79.968

USDJPY is currently 79.944 (2011-06-08, 00:46 am EST)

Total equity is 97% of June 1st, and unchanged from previous.

Stay Tuned,

Jeff
