broke out on the upside for a handful of pips but then came right back to the middle of the range..

just got in for half size at 1.45 (couldn't get other half in time below 1.45) -- will add the other half at 1.4496 if it gets there and have a stop very close underneath. Target other end of range..

 

Got other half in at 1.4498 for avg of 1.4499.. stop below 1.4495 with target of 1.4510..

 

Stopped myself out this time.. may decide to re-enter

 

Re-entered 1.4495 - very tight stop and same target

 

got stopped out again 1.4490 and re-entered again 1.4495 -- this past half hour has not been kind.. but I've convinced myself it has nowhere to go but up..

 

I was unconvinced and just exited all my positions at 1.45015 ahead of the 4am ECB bulletin and because I need sleep.. the last hour was basically a wash..

account now at $20,304
