This is my first weekend with open positions.
Should I close out my short positions? That Sunday gap can be severe at times
This strong bullish move has me concerned and we are at big support around 3400-3500...

I'm flat now, but I feel it may pop down quite a bit.

Do you guys have a rule for when to start on Sunday?
Is it safe by Tokyo, or do you wait for London / Monday ?

I usually wait for London on Sunday night trades, but rest of days typically Tokyo onward is fine for me. It's relative, there is no definitive answer - sometimes it is moving pre-Tokyo, other times barely moving on London open.
If you closed your shorts and we gap down 1 million points don't be mad at me
But if we gap up 1 million points then you can buy me a beer...

Had an early temptation to close the trade @ 21 ticks Bailout TP .... eventually got my 31 ticks Target 1 hit.Attachment 50089 waiting for my 100 ticks Target 2 to be hit @ the 33s .... in the alternative, I'll close the trade on a profitable "tick-note" to end my trading week on a good note.

A large account capital is desirable for this whirled instrument ... and to be able to set a larget SL.
