fingers are pushing me into a short - but i still think its too early - the break hasnt been convincing enough - im pretty sure we are headed north once again - i think the US markets didnt expect such a strong rally from the london session and were therefore quite taken aback - but I believe we could see 1.2920 again quite soon

I'd rather preserve my capital on this occassion and learn - rather than trade and blow the bank on a trade im not 100% about

You talked yourself out of that one Satopi, that's for sure, but when your heads in the wrong place, it's better not to be in the market. Let's just hope it roars back up now for your sake!!
It's okay. I'm trying to be a better trader in 2012, and my weakest area is not taking profits when I need to. I just wasn't feeling the action tonight, so I got out while I was ahead... Definitely a positive change for me, lol.

Exited my position for a minor gain. Pieces are falling into place but I was in a bit deeper than I should have been, so I thought it was best to take my profits while I had them. I think I'm done for the day. This price action is not the best.

"This price action is not the best"

if / when the current 4hr closes below 1.2870 we'll have a fat 8 hr PB

btw, whats an indicator?

Closed out short at 50 pip SL, Made half back going other way. Still a crap week overall. Plus trying to sit out USD/CHF (down bout 60 pips) yet every time EUR gains the USD weakens against CHF, mad, risk on thing is nonsense if you ask me

You've got some profit, so that's a good thing. We were talking yesterday on the forum about the difficulty of knowing when to get out or stay in a trade, in my opinion, the hardest part of trading. Hunches won't get you far though, only a proper exit strategy designed to maximize profits will work in forex, coz without one, you will be at the mercy of the market every time. Good luck to you this year anyhow.

I'm laughing only because I'm not sure if it's a serious ?. If it is, then if I was short, then I'd be holding my position, and as I'm not in the market, I won't be selling unless it comes back, and I get a signal to sell. I think it will come back, perhaps at around the 1.2870 area.

already short but will follow your steps here as we've got strong support from 13.01-~1.2878(massive top) and if price will break it we might see a massive dip, first will be 1.2840.
