Epilogue's Trading Journal

Crude oil has crossed 67. So, I have moved my stop to 66.50 to lock in little +20 pips.
So, it was just +20 pips. Stopped out! Overall, the week was fine. There was one 40 pip loss.
I have just sold E/U at 1.3930. SL and RP at 1.3980.
Crude oil is also sold at 64.50. SL and RP at 65.00
I have taken partial profits for crude oil on 64.00 for +50 pips, and moved remaining position to break even. For E/U also, I have moved to break even.
I was stopped out on E/U for break even and have taken +50 pips on crude oil for the remaining position.
I have now bought E/U at 1.3900 and Crude oil at 62.30. RP and SL are at 50 pips apart.
My RP were executed for both E/U and Crude Oil. So I ended with +100 pips in crude oil and just break even in E/U. My partial lots are still open with profits locked at break even.
You should be making a mint on EU if you went short today.

I am still in bullish frame of mind. Just couldn't wipe that out of my head.
I have set pending order to buy E/U at 1.3940. SL and RP 1.3890.
My buy order is triggered. Currently +25 pips.
Took partial profits on E/U at 1.4050 for +110 pips. Left remaining open.

What would be your plan after you get stopped out on the remaining position, look to jump back in for more up move or wait?

I have been stopped out for +50 pips. I am now leaving E/U to wait for a good setup. Meanwhile, I am eying crude oil and gold which are asking to be bought. Crude oil is in its sixties and gold on 913. I am going to buy them within few hours.
I have bought crude oil at 60.05. RP and SL at 59.55. I also bought gold at 913.00. SL and RP at 908.00.
Trade didn't go very well this time. I had to cover up my losses on crude oil in a very difficult fashion (varying the lot size) through RP (net +5 pips only). The position on gold was lost totally. Both original and the RP failed this time. The movement of gold was frustrating.
Its pretty sad but I need to close my journal now. I think I can't update it anymore. From last week, I have become extremely busy in other things, so it is getting very difficult to post on a regular basis. Sorry for that. Bye.

Hey epilogue,

Best wishes in whatever you decide to do. It was nice reading your thoughts, the trades you took and some of your reasoning.
