Trades of the Day Tuesday (10/06/2025)

Today’s trading ended in the green, with a £1.54 profit – just under a 2% return on my trading capital. A solid result, but with a slight misstep along the way.

I opened a buy position on Gold at $3111, aiming for a small move with a tight take profit at $3115. I wasn’t expecting much momentum, so I played it safe. The trade moved into profit and triggered the take profit... but I’d forgotten I set it so low. Classic case of moving too cautiously!

Gold then rocketed upward. I quickly jumped back in with a quick scalp and grabbed a bit more, but watched it continue climbing to over $3340 before dipping back down this afternoon.

Elsewhere, I opened a sell trade on AUD/USD. It started to retrace toward my entry point, so I closed it manually and locked in a small gain.

Not the biggest day profit-wise, but good experience – and another reminder to double-check those TP levels!
