For me, stopping on the best day I ever had would be a huge mental boost. So I'd leave the day on that psychological note...LOL

That's just me off course.

Very nicely done!
I had one trade from the top on the pound and added another on the way down and also picked up a few on the euro going up and a few when it came down also. I want to stay and keep trading to try and get over the emotion of a big win but I will have to see something slap me in the face to jump in again....

Or, it may be a "Flag"?

Good trade! I mentioned this level yesterday as well and was waiting for it with drool running down my chin! But I was hoping she was going to wait
until the U.S session to get there.. Missed it!

It did happen at a tuff time to trade in the U.S. but I had an alert set on my charts to go off when price reached 1.5550 and when it finally woke me up price was at 1.5560 so I placed my order with a s/l at 1.5580 and let the t/p run.I woke up later a very happy man!!

For those whose h4 closes in 12m, we will have an IB (DBLHC). I don't recommend going long on the turn of the h4, however, buyers will be sitting at 5425 ready to pounce. She could just range out for the rest of the session. EJ might follow suit. Now, if GU spikes to 552x, we will see a new round of sellers.
