Didn't see I forgot to put stops etc on.
1-Fundamentally I'm bullish.
2-Trend wise, I've seen people say we're bullish and seen people say we're bearish, really we've just ranged over the summer, but as fundamentally bullish, mainly want longs.
3-Had a very large bar down, and there wasn't enough reason for it. I've got into this (very bad) habit of trying to trade patterns before they appear, was expecting at least a retrace, and quite possibly a high past the previous hour high.
Not sure if I mentioned it here, have to friends, that I decided against this pre entry targets, I really need to re evaluate what the market is doing at each spot, so I will wait for 129, see what I think, then 1.3, 1.32 etc (if it gets that far, and I'm in, rather unlikely)
As for stops, my stop was 12835, but that is due to the way I trade, my "real" stop, would be 1.2828.
I like stops really tight, I am much happier buying with a 5 point stop, being stopped out 3 times, and then hitting 100 pips, then entering with a 30 point stop and catching the same move.
So I would decide I'm wrong and stop entering at 12828, and rethink the situation.
Short at 10 seems valid though, rejection of a round number. big rejection on 4 hour, but that's both ways. It's what makes a market I guess.
Also, I look at all the charts at once and gain a feel of the macro market, I couldn't possibly tell you what I was thinking at the time though because I'm awful.
In conclusion: don't listen to me, I suck!
