Perhaps. It does look bearish, but it has also formed a pinbar 144.70 on W1 time frame so we may eventually see a reversal.

The pair is back at 144.70 and since it's still range-bound it may depreciate to 144.00.

I think we will soon see a rally above 145.60 to 146.00.

The pair is clearly range-bound and at the support at 144.70, it may be time for a new short-term long.

I decided to open another long only if it breaks out above 146.00, so far that has not happened yet.

I shorted too, my long position was premature, it could not break out above 146.00.

Let's see whether it will rally above 146.00 by the end of the week, I already have longs.

I decided to that as well, my short position did not pan out. Until the range ends it will be smaller trades for me too.

The pair broke out below the double bottom at 144.25 and I decided to short too. Apparently it's too early for longs.

There is a double bottom at 144.25, I think that soon we may see another move north to 145.70.

No, I do not own bitcoin. I am considering it, however. What would you advise me?

Most traders do use stop losses, but I agree, how that SL is placed may always be well thought out.

Do you prefer to do that or do you use stop loss?

In that case you're living the life. Keep going, cheers!

The basic goal is to be profitable. As for percentage, if I grow my account with 10% to 20% I'd be pleased.

For now. Until the next big news event.

I had closed the long at a profit, and then I impulsively opened another long at the top, which was obviously a mistake. It's been a while since I have made such a mistake, but I am determined to learn from it.

I opened a long on EUR/USD after I saw the results, that was the right choice to make.

We'll be seeing a lot of volatility, that's for sure. The general consensus seems to be that if the Republicans lose the elections the USD will drop, and if they win - it will rally.

Hopefully we won't be seeing such a thing (WW3 that is) anytime soon.
