I still like this pair long for some reason. Guess that's why I'm a newbie.

Kind of tempted to go long here, just weary of needing to close all positions within 20 hours.

My over all sentiment is bullish, but I'm short term bearish. I might change my mind if it goes past 112.550/112.600.

Doesn't seem like the time to hold weekend positions does it?

What happens if you have a guaranteed stop and the gap is beyond it against you - is your broker going to eat that loss or will you?

My short last night was a loser. I didn't chase it but waited for it to come back to my level. Now short along with GY which has more horsepower. For the end of the week with NFP looming, it's been great.

I think it will move ahead again from here. See D1 and W1. The bull has just started.

Stay away from market. Better to close your positions today and fresh start after elections.

This is the best tactic if you're worried. Unless your positions are potentially out of reach of the volatility (a factor you'd have to GUESS yourself) then there's really no point risking it.

Brokers call it slippage and they dont take responsibility of it.
