Just realized I cant edit posts indefinitely so I will start numbering my trades so that when I have to create a new post to make changes when moving my stop losses it's easily recognizable which trade I am referencing.

Trade #1 will be the post from 10/9/18.

Still letting this one ride out, expectation is that my take profit @ 1.15601 will be hit tomorrow.

This market was in a range most of today but closed higher than yesterdays close. Appears Bulls still want to drive price up.
Looking to get flat before the EUR session, and will re-asses market structure and AOI's.

SL: Stop Hit @ 1.16159 -16.4 pips

Traded the spike this morning with a tight stop. In hindsight this was a stupid trade and against my system. It was short lived.

Went against my rules (shame on me) and moved my stop to 1.14286. This time it worked in my favor and I was able to recover the loss with .2 pip profit. Odds were that bulls would make an attempt to end the week strong, which they did.
