    Target at 1.1441, 2 week trade at this point. Already out of my EUR/GBP 50k pos at 0.7241 for about 1000£.

    (The WTI/coil position is an unrelated spread that's since gone against me)

    Depending on how it goes towards EOD, I might actually close out around here. Top of a channel after a full on bull run - and it might not hit my target.

    Out at 1.1369 for +477 ticks total since putting the trade on on 8/6. This seems like a good area to take off risk given the hard selling in equities and the Euro's run-up to this point; I don't want the weekend risk with Fed or China pulling rabbits out of hats.

    Can't complain.
