System: SPM Capital Management
Description: A fundamental discretionary approach to form a bias from a global macro-economic perspective. Thus forming an idea of market sentiment, I will use this information combining technical analysis of levels to capitalise on currency moves.
I trade pull backs to technical levels in line with the fundamentals using the real time news feeds. I will scale in once if the prices goes against me.
My stop size will vary depending whether the trade is daily sentiment or fundamental.
Each position will be a max of 0.1 per £1000
TP will usually be the fair value price that i see for that pair. Or I will exit the position if I feel the sentiment has changed.
