why have you closed your positions, then essentially re-opened them in the same direction.
some with a small loss. except for UJ, where you seem to have got back in a better price.

is this a contract month thing? or rolling over cost savings?

are the numbers alongside the prices the number of lots you trade?

PS: to maintain consistency, would it be useful for you to show gains/losses on closing of your positions? (you did this with other posts)

More important when are you entering/closing the trades. Seemed pretty busy on Saturday !!

Trendie don't worry about gains/losses on dt closing positions - BSD is sure to have a spread sheet running

Hello Trendie good day. I have given thought to your question and have pondered before whether to hold open losses until they post a gain.
The answer is, the fundamentals change. I no longer have Aud/usd nor Eur/usd as continuing weak. Instead of keeping this money tied up in pairs that I don't think will continue, I can put the money into a different pair.
If I continue to hold Eur/usd and Aud/usd I might end up taking a bigger lose than I have already since the parameters changed.
I don't think there really is a difference between realizing a lose or repositioning the money into a pair that will make a gain. I am already at a lose in the pairs, so either way I would have to wait untill it came back around, doing this with pairs that I have as no longer having the same directional bias as originally planned and then not having the capital to put it into pairs that have a higher probability, would have me missing the positioning with a greater expectancy of making a gain.

Good question though
