I’m up and relieved to see that my trade is not only still live, it’s actually in profit.
The price peaked around 5 a.m.
There’s been a slight pullback since then but I am still in profit.
I could exit the trade right now and realise a tidy 7% gain - but that’s not how you grow a small account fast. That sort of return, in theory, is fantastic. However, in practise, it would take too long and take too many trades to grow the account fast. Ultimately, it would lead to an increased probability of failure. I need to grow the account in as few trades as possible if there’s going to be any chance of success.
As far as I’m concerned the set-up is still valid and the London open may well give me the momentum that I need to achieve my original take profit. Then again, it could also still go pear-shaped of course.
We shall see.
You pays your monies and take your chances . . .
