Closed out gj for 40 pips, ec for minus 10, together a very good deal
Shit I could have had 40 pips more by just waiting for 5 minutes.

I don't really care. I scale into my positions, that's my style and it works.
yea... but think about who is left in the market to reverse it now. not much participants to reverse it, imo.

I'm not looking for a reversal. I'm looking for a good buying opportunity and that's staring us in the face.

Fridays don't bother me.

disagree, but whatever. I don't see the point of going back and forth on this. I buy/sell on Fridays all the time and it works just fine for me.

This isn't a pair I trade very often, but just glancing at it it does look like an ok point though for price to resume its up move. I used it as an exit point for a short position, however I would usually have a 2nd trade with another exit further down. The 2nd point has a lower chance of being reached though.

If you can survive in San Francisco, the most beautiful city in the USA then you are doing just fine.

I guess we have some sort of resistance @ 143.26?

Guys, I wanted to bring this to the fellow trader's attention. I am trading in Singapore and I had a few GJ short positions today. During the NFP, I kept enough SL of 144.80. In Metatrader the highest spike was 144.30, but when I looked at my account, I notied that "IG Market" has closed my position at my SL. I was shocked and called them up. The guy on the other side said there was a spike and the price has reached 144.815 in a tick, but the IG screen showed the maximum at 144.796, slightly below my SL of 144.80 (lucky me!).

I later sent an email and I just got the reply. They were trying to contact me to re-state the position at 144.8, but they couldnt reach me, so they emailed saying they are ready to refund me at the current price of 143.27. My plan was to close this at 142.98 which is the weekly resistance turned support now, but I am ok to let go the 30pips. I dont think not many trading partners do this which is about 600 US$ paying me back. I dont work for IG and I dont get paid to write this, but as a customer I appreciate their prompt reply and taking action.

Overall I am very happy with the folks at IG and am posting this so that you guys know that not all trading partners are bad, there are good ones too

Alcatraz is viewable from our couch but not the GG. Gotta go up to the roof with a bottle of wine for that
