And the aftermath -




Euro was way too strong it turns out. Wiped out all of last Friday's down move already. Probably shut Hedgie up for a bit too...

:)

The analysis:

nothing wrong with the plan, so I'm happy there. BUT - I still widened the stops a bit and added another small position last night, right at the end. Gotta stop doing that if I want to keep going...

I had a long position in the morning, in fact played the EUR gap so went long from virtually the low point of the day, so should have kept it open longer. Didn't get nearly enough of the up.

Perhaps should have waited for topping again rather than setting limit shorts, esp with the momentum through the day.

Should have closed the shorts earlier, as soon as the trade was invalidated (ie a soft stop at 1.3690 rather than just above 1.37)


Ah, so much to learn....!
