no more until after nfp. It's dying out.
TOTAL = (+5.2 - 3.2 + 6.7) /2 = +4.4 pips compared to a normal position

Looks small because I was trading 1/2 of my normal position. Still = profit!!

EUR/USD
OCO
Buy - 13538, SL - 13469, TP - 13631
Sell - 13253, SL -13284, TP - 13213

Buy order triggered, sell cancelled, 1% risk

will be back when SL or TP is hit

On EUR/USD maybe some sort of strange double top - if the price doesn't go above 1.3550 area.
We'll see after 13:30.

 

[Lord Flasheart]

eur/usd has reached my sell level of that chart again

was tempted to take an option but theres no real value,i need 150 pip move to get 8/1

Only spot - no experience with options at all

If we can't get any reaction t the nfp, I don't have high hopes for the rest of the day, so I'm done for the day. This is going to go sideways all day long.

sh 1.34957 stop 1.3505 1/2 position only

spike up was due to nfp rumor. Should come back down now

Out of interest where do you get this sort of intel from? Bbg?

trading through nfp is always risky,markets generally spike both ways

 

[Lord Flasheart]

not going to plan cad falling and chf rising, may add in to chf
