Hey Maurizio, good to hear from you mate.
I got hammered on Thursday by the move that you actually caught. Problem for me is that I work until about 9am GMT (I live in Brisbane, Australia). I was checking the trade at work, but I don't have a mobile tradestation. When I realised that a massive pullout from carry trades was happening, I couldn't do anything about it. That said, when I got home I placed opposite trades according to 30 min and 1 hour charts to make back around 80 pips across two pairs.
I'm pretty chuffed with my effort yesterday though. The carry trades were back on, so the Yen and Swissy crumbled. I only got onto GBP / CHF (buy) at 14:00 GMT.... everything was lining up from 15 min right up to 4 hour charts so I placed the trade, added a 45 pip trailing stop and pulled 165 pips before being stopped out. It probably could have gained more with a looser trail, but I don't really like leaving trades over the weekend, so all went well really.
I know you went well right? Have a great weekend and I'll see you back next week.
