the most scary thing happened to me a while ago looooool
i opened a short order at 1.8013 then after 1 minute the price started going up... it went up against me 105 pips... i made 2 hedges on the way for around 20 pips all the time while watching -1200 $ hahahahahah

now i have 2 hedged positions with only -280$ which means i gained around 40 $ in the whole scary operation looooool
my account balance is only 7370$

Quoting Chris_35
Closed my 2 shorts @ 18060
if i have closed my short chris without heding and without watching all the time frames i would have lost 1200$ from my 7370$ account!!!

the thing is i shorted at 1.8013 with tp 10 pips because all the time frames stated that we are going down but the news spike was just something temporary... so i was trailing it on every fibo and pivot and then on the way down... i waited before heding again because the hourly close was below the 23% hourly fibonacci which made me somehow relaxed... then i hedged it down on the 61% last up trend just to make sure im even before the news...

god im scared hahaha but that was fun
