Your trade has, in its favor, an NR7 breakout of the daily of USD which is what popped everything else higher. Correlation trading works pretty well. Look at GBP it did the same thing, so did ES.
These are the explosive moves that I'm talking about, however I didnt make any money on this trade. I figured like the past couple of trades, it would pop, retrace, and either go higher or stop me out. In this case, I didnt have a chance to add at the 50% level, and so I was stuck with one lot the whole time.
Not the best last 2 days. I held YM over night, because I was stupid and started trading it in the late afternoon cuz I got bored, so thank god we had the move down. On eur/usd, I got stopped, but I failed to reverse my trade long, which would have been a winner. -303.30 on e/u + 220 on ym net - 83.30
eur/usd One thing I noticed with myself when I trade this system is that if I dont take the stop-&-reverse trade immediately, I start to second guess the trade, and decide not to enter. Even off 2hr charts, trading fx is difficult. It's a 24hr market and the most active times are those when I'am asleep.
