German Foreign Minister Steinmeier: Russia seems to have annexed Crimea, Ukraine developments extremely dangerous

I am going to guess that the situation in Crimea is causing the drop.

Yes. Market is reacting to the news at the moment, Its a buying opportunity currently..
No war or attack has been executed. So current big drop, is a good entry zone.

{quote} I think that when we graduate to standard lot sizes the trick is to take partial profits when in doubt but roll the dice for the remainder in play. There are no certainties in trading, whether for or against you.
Correct. I made between a little jump to catch 10 pips. It's OK for today.

Russian APC fires heavy machine gun on Ukraine border patrol plan, border guard service says.

I would consider this an attack. I do not know if it is escalating or not.

I'm waiting 104.XXX...(but at least 103.000)

Edit: but I was waiting for the turn at around 102.000...hope it's just the usual deep retrace (and will be pumped up at Tokyo session).

Normally, it's time to short for GJ and UJ up to the next 18 hours. Short UJ at 102.70, GJ 170.85. Let's see market reaction on that.

{quote} Thanks. GJ also hit target within the time expected, but did not take the whole move (trading far from my computer is not easy to avoid gains become loss). {quote} My actual trades are on and up to now follow direction despite bumps on GJ. If expectation is good, it remains 13 hours to follow short move. Will we go to 101 UJ and 169 GJ within this time? I don't know. I could get out at anytime seen trading as target balance trader.

Finally, expectation was almost good: 169 on GJ (even with big drawdown compensate by money management from the beginning) and from 102.70 to 101.6 on UJ (not yet 101 arrived before timing prevision).
Due to huge lots i put from closing my positions and in mind timing remaining for shorts, i compensate almost what i was expected to win from the beginning.

Hope to all good trading.

That's exactly what I have been saying all day. I wish knew what the plan was and the end-game, though.
