[spinfoiltrading]

took another fifth of the position at 1.3785. up about 0.90% on this trade so far, and about 1.25% for the evening.

moved stop up another 5 pips... guaranteed about 1.30% for this evening.

 

[spinfoiltrading]

moved 4th target to 1.3665, over 150 pips from entry. It will only be about 13.5% of my initial position, but will make about 1.75%, or 1.15% of my original R.

Again...it's all about finding high probability trades, and turning them into a risk free situation. Let the winners run, cut the losers off.

I know...you have all heard it a million times, but it really is that simple.

I have another night where I can NOT lose, guaranteed about 1.3% profit, and if all targets are hit, can make about 3.5% for the night.

Happy trading all.
