Not a good start to the month -0.6%.

PO was just tagged in before retreating at LO. Then it took off without me.

Exited manually when price just missed my tp at TZ1.

Richard, just out of curiosity, where was your SL during the 09:30 (UK) news event? Under the alligator?

My sl was at the otherside of the Aims box. To be honest until you asked the question I had forgotten about the news and did not factor it in. The sl was moved to breakeven after the trade moved into profit and it stayed there.

Ok Richard, good outcome still! News was actually for GBP but those seems to have an affect to EUR/USD also.

BTW....awesome month you had on September. Excellent trading!
