Just asking, those positions are short term right? Or were you planning to hold on to them for long.

Just wondering why you traded that way. Coz I would have cut and sold higher every time.

Will you hold anything longer than 10 pips profit? What is your normal SL set at?

95% time only 10 pips, but I trade many times a day if it works out...
I don't do SL at initial stage .. i use position size management....I usually know how far the trend can go.. if its out of my expectation.. I will cut the loss...

{quote} A LC close 1127.7 is a lower close. a month support here at 1124 area is holding it. All bets are off with a LC below 1127.7 close. Another lighter support at 1097.7. A close next wednesday below 1145.9 will open a big hole in longer term bearish forecast. The week and day are already bearish. 1145.9 is bulls last stand to close the month above. below 1400 is bearish as a general rule once/if 1145 is closed below. If that happens. shorting the spikes may be a long term strategy. If that happens pa is unlikely to see 135x/1400 for a long...
SOS,,, the one below 1124 is 1097. 1097 held earlier. see if 1145.9 can hold it to close mont now..

no, but close enough. it was just a light support.. under 112x.. next general area of a month support is 1080ish. below it 1009.. next month these change.
