A 10 pip range for over an hour prompts me to exit the 3034 short for 5 pips.

Three long lots still open with an open loss of $151 and free margin of $343.

Unfortunately, I exited early. Patience is not a virtue I have. But I just don't want to be on the wrong side again when it breaks through 3055.

3019 short hit TP for 10 pips. Key support at 3002. I feel like going long again but that would break my rule of not having 4 longs open (Max is 3). It'll probably cost me.

Key support at 3002 sees to be holding up fortunately. If it breaks through it will open the way to the second support at 2974. I currently have 3 long open.

Unless you close those euro shorts, I predict the blowing of your $500 in the next 1-2 days.
They were all closed at a profit. Subsequently, a few more shown below were opened. The quote above is from 6 days ago.

Short term target 50 consecutive profitable trades and grow account balance to $1000 by close of business this week. Started with $500.

As long as 292 is a support, a rise towards 318 and even 33 seems likely. My pivot point now stands at 292.

Only the downside breakout of 292 will invalidate my bullish scenario. In this case, a decline should shape towards 281 at first, and then 269. A break below 292 would cancel rebound chances and would lead the currency to 281 and even 269.

Trend: ST consolidation; MT bullish.

Free margin is $278 at 1.3. I have 3 longs open. I can withstand a drop to 2908 without increasing the account balance by successful shorts which I would do all the way down. If I did nothing I would anticipate a margin call at 2907.

However, if it breaks 292 it would cancel rebound chances and would lead to 281 and I'd be out of this game unless I gained substantially with shorts on the way down. We'll see. I'm comfortable with my positions as they stand now and that's what matters. Maybe this post will be nearly my last because I won't trade much longer today.
