Not that I traded it but I marked up a 123 on the Euro from the lows but again it was stopped at the fibs. Then signalled a short back into the trend so I guess one would have exited at -11 and reversed direction.

Could you show us your chart, you seem to have got in slightly earlier than my chart is showing and locking in earlier.

Crude hit target, +40, v nice.

Quick point of clarification, when do you lock in +30? I thought it was +10 (+1 locked), +20 (+10), +30 (+20), +35 (+25), +40 (Target).
