EU failed to hold to 2800 level and failed @ 2900, and it can be considered a bullish failure as we approach 2560 zone.

According to Black Widow 2571 could be next target but we need to break 2665 first. Below that we can expect 2571 aiming for 2451.

I often have this problem with greed. I went short from 2710 with a pretty big lot, already have a nice profit, SL already moved to BE (risk free trade) - but I'm hesitating to take what's on the table, and instead I let it flow (I'm afraid there will be a further move down and will regret getting out so quickly) risking that PA will move against me, leaving me with nothing.

I noticed that recently no longer I'm working on my trading strategy, but on my psychology. In my case - there's the key to successful trading. My trading system is ok, but execution is not so fine.

Just thoughts of a fellow trader.

Psychology is the hardest part, imho. Quick fix for what you're describing is to take half off the table when you begin to see a possible bounce, and move the rest to breakeven. Then you're guaranteed to walk away with profit, while still leaving the door open for your profits to run.

You already know what the problem is, so the solution is with you right there. Doesn't your broker allow taking out half the trade? Like if you have a full lot you can decide to take out 0.50 and allow the remaining 0.50 run at BE? Consider it then
Meanwhile, as long as EU remains under 1.2735 I look to short only. Dukascopy message says SL for most big dealers were taken out at 1.2830, and the rest went at 1.2735. All eyes are set downward. Their report has been little wrong since I started trading with them.
