THAT's phenomenal... Awesome Seed Setup... imagine if you had an advanced trade management plan which would allow you to catch the rest of the move? it exits... but we shall keep it for stages later... imagine catching that 500 points move up?

I know that would have been amazing... For now I am happy with the 2R; Trade by trade I am gaining more clarity on my rules, emotions and the process.
