holding - feb month - main lot - 1 no - buy entry @ 3730

just took a position in crude and aluminium asf:

1) buy aluminum jan main lot @ 133.55
2) buy crude feb main lot @ 3897

i will square off one or both of the above close to end of day or on sign of reversal accordingly. overnight holding will be one main lot only if i decide to hold in any one of these.

both lots on mis presently with the rollover lot being converted to nrml @ day end if need be.

just closed my hedge in crude - with usa closed the markets lacked strength and direction today.
anyway, closed both positions in crude at a net loss of 700 approx (3 points loss overall and brokerage loss).
running aluminium hedge. will decide about 11 pm to close or hold accordingly.

 

[ScorpionKing]

ok - out of aluminium hedge - both long and short positions - booked loss of 500 approx i guess (no points loss - only brokerage on each way)

no holdings and down some 1200 for the day total. bad start to the week,

gn all.
