Thanks for the comments guys. I always trade with a SL, but as the news today had a high impact I maybe should have waited longer before pulling the trigger that way my 2%-3% risk would have not stopped me out. That said I made 30+pips on re-entry So for me both times this week I was correct just my swissy short was a miscalculation on the SL (doh!) and today, well, put that down to lack of experience. I am only trading small till I get more confident so no great worries. As Oscar says "emotions are out, stops are in!"
Good luck.
p.s. away to play lawn bowls now so good luck if something signals this evening.
