    No. I covered today at a small loss at .8725. I didn't post in real time, so I wasn't going to post. I was wrong --at least for now --on this one. I was trying to use the weekly chart and ignored the daily which clearly had a long grail at Wed close. I was wrong.

    I will be looking for a new short entry once this resolves itself and I'll try again. Truth is, even with my experience, I wasn't paying enough attention.

  8. Next time I will try to bring to your attention this sort of thing earlier if I am aware of any positions you are holding.

    :)

    Thanks. It was just a rookie mistake adding to the position when I could see the indicators on the daily were not making new lows. What wasn't a rookie mistake was getting out with the small loss.--and it was very small.
