I have to ask you guys to stretch your minds this morning. I watched these lows put in last night in the Asian session and was surprised that level held as firm as it did. I watched the move up then, got myself some sleep. Prior to 2am I put some orders in at the POC shifts near the lows and targeted a retrace of the value area, placing my targets on 1.2683 which was at the time the +2 SD line.
Then my internet went down, I knew the orders were in (and not filled), and I knew my stops would protect me, but I wanted to close them out with any profit before 3am. For almost an hour my connection was down, when it came back on I closed out the one position that filled with a 20 tick profit. I'm flat, I'm gun shy and I'm happy.
Me too, but I think my watch runs a little faster than yours . I've been lamenting over my behavior this morning and decided just couldn't forgive myself if I don't take one more shot at this.
I'm long @ 1.2645 Add 1.2635 Stop 1.2615 Target 1.2668/74
I just want to point out that is your third trade in the same direction. So let me ask the simple question, if the trade is still valid after hitting your stop, then why was your stop there in the first place?
