Done for the day with -2T

Edit: I had to handcuff my hands not to put a sellstop to anticipate that breakout... but happy I stuck to the "rules". Feel free to comment if I did anything wrong here. One observation, we have to reduce 1T for each SL hit + any slippage

good call D. I like using the horizontal ray tool at levels you anticipate price will come to.

Well my day was a mess. Ended with -31 with 4 loss and 1 win. Three losses were clear mistakes. The win was the 123 break at 6755.00. Bit unlucky with this trade as it hit my trail stop to the tick for +17 and then moved to +40. Been a while that I had such a day.
