Ok in looking at RORO trades
it looks like they tend to run the whole day
I should have closed 1/2 my trades
and moves to BE+ Spread on the second 1/2 and let it run

I got 50 pips on all of it which is great
but I could have done much better

if I had closed out the 2nd 1/2 of the trade at 5:30 pm ny ny - the end of trading day I would have made 30 pips more. RORO is meaningless in the low trading volume of the in between markets

My total for the week

Trade 1
12 pips X 2 lots
Trade 2
50 pips X 2 lots
Trade 3
115 pips X 1 lot
165 pips X 1 lot


Notes on week
Was a short week
NPF was last week
Chf intervention
Pres. Speach and new Jobs plan
So it was a bit of a crazy week

I really like the RORO trades_
