She's being a bitch right now. I've taken a position short at 4565 and she's not playing well. Come back down here and play in the sand box..

No one ever went broke by booking profits. Godo job!

Can you close part of your position and leave the rest open with SL green?

Nice trade Komissar I did exactly the same thing, but i think it was the correct thing to do as 20pips up your TP was right at the top of a wedge, that was my target

My positions are too small for that yet.

If this TL holds, I am planning short.

For my position, I hope it holds, but not looking likely! She's knocking on my SL atm.

EDIT: She hit my SL.

1) wait for news to be absorbed
2) 50% fibo retrace
3) Held at a previous Ressistance/support
4) a pin is seen
