Like a dagger to my already damaged heart
Nice trade!!! You'll know why when you see my journal post.....
Anyway, I am pleased I'm taking the same entries as you though, Richard. I'll take that as a positive!
Well done!

Re: Topher's Journal
A nice little +0.5% to start the day.
I thought about getting out at +1% which was at the level to the left but thought I would aim for TZ1.

Re: Topher's Journal
Just took a trade that didnt feel right. I went against my better judgement and paid the price with a -0.2%.
I have closed my charts until NYO and taking a break.

Re: Topher's Journal
Now that is better. +1.86%.
I had tp just above a support level. When price started to retrace I simply moved my sl down to a level I was happy with and it got tagged. I didn't want a nice profit been eroded too much as it is a Friday and for me taking a loss or letting a winner retrace too much plays with my emotions over the weekend.

Cheers Immy
This is where only having the one chart open for the pair comes into play for me. Looking at two great setups and trading them both properly is ouside of my capabilities so I concentrate on just the one. +1.86% will do me any day.
