I've never seen the GBP/USD move like that. I shorted one more around 2.0120 .. but as someone who is used to this strategy, how did you or does one handle a rapid & strong move up like that? I guess you just figure "what goes up must come down ... sometime??"
To be honest I already took profit at 50 and so pips on some just to free margin and put profits on balance. I am still in the hole. I will just have to wait and have faith. I have never seen this before either. This is a great start to my strategy.

This is a true test of my patience. Will I stick around long enough to ride the other side of the 200.

I need support right now.
