Another bad day for the Euro against the US dollar, 1.1000 tested but stay hard on the pair. Breaking below it will confirm more decline.

Same to you.
I wonder if we have pullback before FOMC and question no 1. Will the Fed hike rates ?

That was prior to the big drop. Report is from the close on tuesday.
Next week's report will show a big change in the opposite direction (increase in shorts).
Without seeing all the option positions, pretty hard to see the full story. If I'm long 1 contract but short 10 at-the-money calls, am I bullish or bearish? Too many possible situations to get the true meaning of the short/long futures.

as it is smallest means a lot free space to load with shorts hence while loading it goes down...

a question is bugging me big time, so I'd like to ear thoughts...

Say I have a 10 pips stop and 50 pips target. All is well and I'm 40 pips in profit...
SO if I were to close this trade and open the same exact one (let's forget commissions) all would be well also...
BUT I would just have opened a trade with a 50 pips stop and a 10 pips target. That can't be good.

See my perplexity?
It's all about "letting profits run". As long as we are not trailing the stop super close to the action, we are indeed expanding our stop, making RR of the trade we are actually in at that moment catastrophic (or just bad - in the hope that that move will go on "forever"). How much are we risking for that few pips more? I find by experience that even by manually trailing stops (reasonably... behind lines etc.) I'm "letting profits run" at the cost of huge stops (or have to face getting stopped out at the smallest retracement.)

What I'm getting at is : if we consider the trade we are actually in in that moment (like if we were to close it and open the same one) how can we let profits run?

For EURUSD: what you guys think? It will down again for another 200+ pips from next week or down trend is complete?
