Greed got the better of me.... all my positive long positions closed at manual SL...... with about 10pips losss

Should have closed off last night with 50pips of 4 contracts.

Sigh..... i need to overcome this greed emotion factor....

Anyone who can help or passed this stage before?

added two long @ 1.3023 and 1.3024

the only way it works , is to split ur position into few entries and when you have a profit you close one by one ...

put it to BE to start with

you had 4? then close 3 of them...and you will feel soo goood to cap your mouney in the wallet! Do it for one week and you will be happier then with one 150 pip runner! close +15 close +20 at least.

depends on your strategy how to play the basterds

but at the end...your wallet counts

Thanks.... will try to make it a habit.

i have a tendency to want to close at the peak point only to see price keep moving away and then decide to hug my positions tight instead of cashing out less.

The only important fundamental pressure on Euro - from my opinion , is how long Spain can play around before requesting the bail out ! This week should be a bullish week , key fundamental string was Green " Rajoy reelection ". But tomorrow is the big moves ,

let hope and see what will bring
Yes, I agree. Rising yields are going to force Spain to take bailout, though we could see some choppiness due to Spanish GDP data and what I mentioned earlier...though with all this pessimism, I went contrary. LONG on XAU as well, and will add if moves up a bit.

The US is in the middle of Q3 earnings reporting season. A fifth of US S&P 500 have reported (some 70% have beaten the managed expectations) and another third report this week.

Why? what do you see ?
That is yesterday's open 4hr (open-close)/2 zone (30 exactly mid) and
the same time algohuggers playground. That is where they exploit manual trader weakness.
