Quote from Uncle:

Took half off 1.45317.. going to try it Ammo style -- stopping other half at 1.4535 and targetting half at 1.4525

Scratch that -- Ammo style causes me too much anxiety took other half off at 1.45288..

now up 556 on the day but of course one minute later it hits 1.45255 -- should've listened to Ammo gotta work on it a little more..

but going to switch to long soon

the 1 second spike that took out my stop loss.. gotta take the bad with the good i guess..

still holding on to my short -- going to be patient but mindful of the 30min limit i was targetting.

Out all at 1.46205 -- Eur continued to fall after I got out -- now 1.4615
 
Account value now 15,748 -- which is right about it was when I started this journal -- looking back -- had some really good days and calls.. lost too much when the market went haywire and was gapping up and down..

will consider either staying out altogether next time around (as trading for smaller size will only lead me to double down on a losing trade)..

next re-evaluation for the day is after consumer confidence @ 10am staying out until then..
