ranging 1.45 - 1.4510 -- will break out of range soon no feel for which way -- 2am approaching -- not sure if any volatility specific to 2am / European traders / don't usually trade this late -- will step aside for a couple of minutes..

Ok nothing of note at 2am.. still in the range 1.45-1.4510..
 
getting late -- it feels like a shotgun is being loaded slowly waiting for something to shoot at.. will observe the breakout and then will call it a night, this time for real..

one observation is that the change in size as as my position size has gone up is making me trade any differently.. just focused on the number of pips and agnostic/unaware of P&L..
