I also have a timestop in place: I will close at the end of this hour if my target is not reached.

Good for you!
Crazy shit on EURUSD...

well, removed my stop since it seemed to close to get hit so the upmove didn't get me ... I must admit a little unorthodox but it seemed so clear a downtrend overall I had to try.

Closed the rest of my gbpusd at 1.2574 as told. For the rest it's just patience since I finetuned my plan somewhat.

You weren't stopped out at 1.2621 when the rate popped up like 15 minutes earlier?

I have a buy stop order in at gbpusd at 1.2596, stop -24, target +60 pips.

GBPUSD hit my resistance level like "to the penny" at 1.2637. If it weren't the last day of the week, I would fully expect the pair to head south from its current level (1.2621).

My apologies if this entry already answered the question I asked above about whether you were stopped out of your GBPUSD position. I have a number of individuals on ignore, so it’s possible that this was in response to an inquiry I was unable to see.
