    As soon as a 116 195 prints, that tells me that my net 3 tick profit potential has been achieved and I need to take off 1/2.

    Anywhere now between 116 185 and 116 195 is a good price.

    Out of trade.

    Order to short at 116 210 is already in.

    Shorting small size at 116 190. This is a small rule violation, but I didn't like the spike up to 116 205 followed by a return to 116 185.

    OK, posting real-time like this is getting on my nerves. You know the routine, i.e. my entries and exits.

    I'm stopping the real-time posting for awhile today.

    So much for not posting.

    This has been an incredible morning. I'm quitting posting while I'm ahead. 116 190 to 116 145 in a minute or two. It doesn't get any better than this.

    Even on a 1 lot trade account, you should be up a minimum of 200 USD, probably more like 300 USD on my levels posted way in advance this morning.

    That is it for me. I'm done posting for today and maybe even trading. Hard to say on the trading part.

    Good trading.

  7. I see I made a bit of an error in a post. First carefully look at what I posted above.

  8. The above should read the current long at 116 160. My apologies for any confusion.

  10. It appears you are concentrating more on this journal than actual trading?
