Off Road (Continued)

yesterday, those positions got stopped out at BE. then I opened new shorts at a better price which are still open. but that's another story...

today's quick trades came from USDCHF.

USDCHF +220 pips

wow, didn't expect to see that. I left 1000 pips on the table once more!!

but what pisses me off is that I was trading AUDNZD as I mentioned and the stupid news indicator I use showed that there was important news for NZD at 17:33 yesterday. then at about 17:10 price just spiked up (a). Thinking that that might be a stop hunt, I shorted the pair with every retracement. but the price didn't stop. normally I should have quit the trades but because I had 300 pips of profit from my EU trades, I just watched it to go the upper trend line. then indicator changed the news time. that spike was due to the news released! if I knew I would at least wait for the momentum to fade out. during asian session price came back. I had a target of 180 pips (x12 positions) (pink line below). anyway, price consolidated all day long at around BE level. then I placed a pending buy stop in case the price might want to test the upper trend line once more when I wouldn't be in front of my PC. with FOMC spread widened, closed my 2 shorts, got into buy and went directly down. now I have a hedge I need to deal with (just 14 pips though; for 10 positions of course). otherwise, I would be 500 pips in profit. shit!

Isengoz continue your great work! I will be here in monday!
