Emotional or a specific strategy?

ok - you're stubborn
I can see that trade though..... so where are you wrong?
1.2500 will probably be a battle if it drops to there.

It is my strategy, though generally I don't find myself getting stopped and re-entering the same direction in the same day.

Fair enough, just have a feeling the market is being "engineered" at the moment; not to say it won't roll off.
Personally, got a nice bump through DX/6E which was a little unexpected,but gratefully accepted.
No idea what Mickey Market is going to offer next....none.Strange feeling though.

Mind that swing high of 1.2554 July 5th!
Could be headed back up there...... or 1.2639 from July 3rd!
Nothing on my chart is saying go short yet.
After all, it's what you learn AFTER you know it all, that counts!

This is a short term play. The Euro is bullish longer term right now, but I am just looking to short the top of the channel and then get long again bottom of channel.
