Sometimes the market just ignores fundamentals. Why did you close? Are you leveraging too much?

just pure fear of seeing the price dive up after a strong bearish move down and the constant reminder of the taper which signify that usd will strengthen

Good job on the taper call guys. And also if you dodged the whipsawing stop out and made loads of cash must have some good reflexes.

ya its unbelievable how one can make close to 25% of yearly gain from 1 day of trading. Especially retail traders with no P&L managers, no highly paid analysts, no mentorship but still close a profit for the year. This thing aint easy my friend, goes to show how when one stays focused and eyes on the ball he/she can accomplish whatever you set out to do. Much respect !!!

More USA data being released in 6 minutes keep a close eye but the market will probably just disregard the data anyways.

Poor data out of USA again. Not too much movement from it.(Some) Market should forget about it in a bit.

The weight of 200 pips will not go unnoticed. careful, tomorrow is Friday. If correction not tomorrow then early next week. steam needs to be collected again before going further up

They hype of taper will be over soon when they realize theres a long way to go to 75B and that america still can face default in January. That would be a good time to load on longs.

The market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent. Please keep this in mind and look at previous price action.

Could also be a hedge for their shorts. That's what I'm thinking. Looks pretty overbought up here. Shorting.
