That is a pretty big drawdown and implies some poor risk management. I would heed the advice of the 4750 area. JMHO Better a small loss and the ability to re-evaluate....

time to do what i do best pray to god of pips..

anyway i think market should push it lower.. the pipeline thru georgia.. has been restored .. so oils should go down.. and forcast for homesales is a tad better forecasted.. oh well
Take a 20 pip loss now and wait for re-entry. Looks like Asia is done buying $ for now - regroup and wait for the European session. Good luck.

Looks like I called oil spot on.
So I guess this means you went short. Otherwise the object isn't just to be "right" but to get paid for being right.

Japan never really decides a direction until after lunch. they close you know. GB has a holiday and no euro announcements. A test of 4700 could happen just as easily as 4750. One is plus 15 the other is -35, which sounds better?

London is but DAX and CAC aren't. Trust me, there will be much better shorting opportunities in A.M. GMT.

Yes. You took a very aggressive trade. What's your position size anyway, compared to account value?
