College student learning to run with the Big Boys

EJ long at 112.82 stop at 112.62
looking to take half my position off at 30pips and letting the rest run

*closed first half at 32pips profit
*closed rest at 12pips profit

Short GU @ 1.4403 stop at 1.4418

not feeling to confident about this short but lets see what happens

*closed first half at +15pips and moved stop to -7 to limit risk
*2nd half stopped at -7

Long GU @ 1.4390 stop at 1.4370
Long EJ @ 112.25 stop at 111.94

both trades got stopped out GU for a 20pip loss and EJ for 35pip loss

Still in positive pips for the day and i need to figure out why these trades didnt go my way, guess you can't win them all

* just had a look and obviously it didnt work because the trend is down, Lower Highs and Lower lows today on EJ, GU very choppy really
