E/U trailing stop hit near the opening of the sunday market. At this point, I am profitable. However, the E/G was trucking up slowly, but also dropped in price at the open & I am nursing a loss ... for now. No new runners tonight.

i'm long the E/J, U/J, and G/J; the G/J was screaming up and set my S/L to break even at around 80 pips (presently at 160-ish); E/J & U/J are very new trades so time will tell (but U/J, E/J, & G/J typically flow together). i still have my E/U short ...

this should get interesting ... taking shorts on E/J & E/U & a long on the G/J and leaving the short on the U/J. good times. :-) trading into friday isn't the best, but the signals are there and it's only 2% per trade per account so why not?
