I closed mine manually. It missed TP by a few
But still a 74 pip drop. With very little drawdown.

or long 6694,, tp 6722 or more
6694 may be a bottom
But dont let it run away.. Its a breakout point below. So it may be a good bounce up.. If it drops below and can't close below it may be a bottom. If its closing below. it may run south

mine was 02 also.. I figured if it hit 98 I would be covered
I almost shit my pants when i saw that setup. I just had to wait for some topping. It most often would of hit 98 with that topping pressure
Even with the bad tp.. i made 4.44% on that one

I will not take this.. I want more pip potential to trade
40+..But i may be raising that.
I have no anchor for a s/l. So for 18 pips. Its not worth it to me. Others may be ok with it.

I would have to do it with a tight stop.. But I want a larger reward potential. This is the middle of the ocean.. To me 6694 has more backing

I may have played it like this.. 5 min entered at 6741. with 1 pip above the 5m 200 sl.. Or its better using the 5m,, s/l +1.. Add what's needed for spread.. using 6641 its a 5X trade.. using the 5m is way larger potential

like this directly off the 5 m the potential is 20X

autopsy.. The trade busted the s/l.. But on a 1 min.. This trade was up 5.5X... 5.5X the risk was there if taken. Take 1/2 and money was made. with a 10X potential riding

The moral of the story is. FOMO is killing traders rewards. We all get mad when it misses an entry by 1 pip. Stop getting in a trade until whatever your using is reached. Don't get in early with a feeling. Let the trade come to you..The stop loss are less if you wait
