Dear traders,

this week has been tricky due to Friday. And Friday only. The total result for ecs.LIVE service for the last week was 15 trades with 10 wins and 5 losses adding up to a total of -4 pips. 

Let’s review last week’s stats and the trade of the week.

10 Wins & 5 Losses with the Total -4 Pips

The trading week was developing well until Friday came along. Friday’s profit taking coupled with month’s end profit taking created some losses. The total of the week therefore closed at -4 pips and -0.68 % ROI. 

Fortunately, the loss was minor (less than 1%). But still, it is a pity to lose the +2.37 % gains that we had before Friday. 

A new rule is going to be applied from now on: only a maximum of 1 trade on each last Friday in the month. 

Here is the total summary of our result per month.

Due to the specific risk portfolio of each trader, I urge you to take a look at our SpreadSheet where I have been thoroughly writing down each trade I send in the Telegram channel.

The risk was 0.5 % on this trade:
