Longer term trend?

I thought I had it figured out last Fall,for the most part i was right but I lost all my profits in very quick time.

I'm with you, 82 is my time to put in Longs...take the 20 PIP profit.

You sound like me 4 months ago.

Overall it turned out well...but....it caused an inflexibility with my position that turned out hurting more than it should have.

Having said that I would stick with it.

Nothing wrong with taking a fraction of your usual trading size for long term.

Yes, a downgrade for an ENTIRE country is a serious issue.

Especially one that's considered developed.
