what happend on the Gbp/Jpy the week of 6-Feb-2004?

I was looking through the charts and noticed that before my trading time there is a weekly candle on week of feb. 6 2004 that has a high of 210.05 and low of 173.57. I couldnt imagine growing my account for yrs and have some event like that wipe it out. Or on the other hand could make some one an instant millionare.

Weekly on 19.10.2008 is longer... 179.18 to 138.97 = 4021 pips... (almost half of it in a single friday, 24-10)

Your above figures don't show on my charts for feb.2004 though... neither in the monthly... which charts are you using?

That's what S/L is for.
