Result +2.1. It's pips all right and still give it a chance to go north if market so have decided.

totally agreed. if you see such a tight range, and tis still day time! (I don't know why you're going to bed in the middle of the day.. haha) definitely worth taking. The worst feeling a trader gets is when you see a setup and don't take it.

Page 112
"(Richard) Dennis believes that one of the worst mistakes a trader can make is to miss a major profit opportunity. According to his own estimate, 95 percent of his profits have come from only 5 percent of his trades. Missing only a few such profit opportunities could have a dramatic negative impact on performance. As a corollary, you need to guard against holding too rigid an opinion on a market, since such an opinion could easily lead to missing a major trend."
Agreed.
