Hey, here's a neat little story for ya this morning.

I was doing up an article last night after which I noticed the market was starting to become active after being somewhat dormant all afternoon.

So, I thought, "Okay, let's scalp a couple trades before bed."

Well, I can't show you the minute chart I was using because it has lapsed, but I'll show you the 5 minute chart where I entered.

I was trading the CHF and entered again at 1.2788

It is easy not to exit early when you are asleep, usually anyway.

More tough, when you are watching it.
