    GBL stopped out 1 @ 117.21, -13 pts.
    Still holding 1 long from 117.30

    I believe the Eurex problem was exploited to hit some stops at the re-open. Still bullish, and looking to re-enter a 2nd contract.

    SMI stopped out @ 8208, +89 pts.

    A break of 8200 on SMI will be bearish for the next few days. Will be looking to short below 8200. I am short the ESTX50 already.

    I usually do my forex trades in another account, but I am on insufficient margin right now.
    Since this trade will affect this account's balance, I will report it here:

    USD/CHF long 25K @ 1.2460

    GBL exited 1 @ 117.28, +1 pt.
    (Seems like GBL is on chop-chop, and I don't want to get chopped. So, the shorter timeframe contract is out. I am still keeping 1 long from 117.30 with a wider stop)
