Youre right its part of the game, I gotta go through the sharks in FX but I think once I can trade FX consistantly profiting then I will be able to bring that skill to E-minis, Options, Futures, Equites with less of that explosive volitility. In the long run Ill make more than what I might lose...

I sold a .05 lot of USD/JPY at 85.86 with a stoploss of 86.10 and a take profit of 85.5, After the NFP-Unemployment report the USD/JPY was trading well below my take profit of 85.5. I checked my account online from work to see that I had been exited from the trade before the pair made its big...
