    done. Great day - im up 63 pips.
    actually puts me up on the week despite the last 2 days poor results, but my results still seem way too random for my liking. I wonder how consistent the results are of 'real' successful traders.
    Win 4 days out of 5 for a typical week maybe for a daytrader? Woul be very ununsual to get 3 losing days in a row?

    I felt like a king yesterday, only to feel like a moron today. Missed many chances to take my profit for at least 100 ticks or more. Why? I am determined to see this thing come down to 104.50 or less.

    For the time being, placing a stop on the entire package at 107.60

    One would think so, but it ain't so unusual. I lost 5 days in a row once.

    But here's the real kicker. I also had 5 straight days of winners. But on the 6th day, I had a monster loser that effectively wiped out the last 5 days' profit.
