I do believe this has the potential to go lower and I mean a lot lower. But on the way into the office this morning, I watched two gas stations raise their gas by 20 cents/gal. I'm not a fundamental trader, but inventories are due out in half an hour. Rather take the profit now and re-enter later.

EDIT:

After post, price has dropped 23 points more. It can fall to parity

good job man,

if i may ask what triggered exit?
Before I answer your question, I wish I didn't exit it after looking at the price.

I exited because of seeing the rising gas prices coming into the office, profit was acceptable for the trade and the length of trade. I was in and out of the trade in an hour and made 67 pips on 5 lots. If I could post charts from my office I would, but looking at the 15 min chart and seeing the double shoulders and inverted head. I knew we had to break the head to go lower, but I was concerned about the support resting at 1.7758. News was due out and I don't like to hold long trades over the news. I've already traded her 4 times today and I'll jump back on her again.
