...that was quick!
now you know why it's not a good idea to get in before the major report like this today.

that's how your brokers take your money, assuming it was a real money.

I do it all the time bro. Just bagged 22 pips and will see if the good USD data will take us up more. That UP rate is a load of crap BTW but...oh well....LOL

Yep...real money and nope, they didn't get it.

Thanks.

Flat now and will see if it tests or brakes 144 again. Daily TL still containing yen fall and pound bounced off support and doji so far. No clear pick for me yet.

The beast is on clearance and I'm buying!

I'm kicking myself for releasing my longs yesterday too, Killer.

To be honest, it was the last week or so of PA that made me bail. We've been getting little run ups with deep retracements and it had gotten me in that mindset. I figured I'd just be able to buy back in again, but the beast means business now.

I think going to test and break the 148 zone is simply inevitable now, so I'm loading the boat for the trip north!

Yep same for me. Remember when I bailed to recoup that 25% and it never looked back? I didn't get back in higher for the same "mindset" you just said.

Oh well...plenty more around the corner. 145.40ish next serious bump in the road for me.

We still have a very good shot to close above 144 today... that'd be awesome!

That would be sweet for sure. But I'd like to get one more long in a bit closer to 143ish before it does. Have one at 143.64 now.

Probably won't happen as I have to scoot to PA in about 2 hours to see Mom. They don't have wi-fi at the home she's in and I barely get signal for my phone tucked in a valley between two mountains.

your sl would have been 100? something you would want to think about. not trying to pick on you... i believe this is something very important that might help you in the long run... if you are successful at it then just discard.

I am just stubborn and hold until my target is reached haha, It screws me sometimes tho. Just picked up a few more here for 147.80 near term target.

That's good advice bro and I appreciate it.

The "hard" stop was actually 150 but I only set them as an emergency stop in case I loose power or something. I have mental stops I adhear to and would close at but, I know a 100 pip swing on the dragon is nothing especially during NFP.

That said, I have many other reasons I was looking for a pullback to the 143/142.90 area to load longs so I was pretty sure I'd pull a few off that short. Playing quick bounces both ways is the way I'm used to trading. Due to things at home I'm "trying" to learn trading the larger TF's but....old habits die hard I guess...LOL

I think you can make more money on the anticipation of "something" --- than you can make on the "something".
Trade at your own risk.

Yeah but as long as you're covering along the way it ain't a bad way to go. Did you take 50% and cover the other day as we talked about?

Must be tickled with your UJ now hitting 96 ...
