Holy Cxxp!!!

SL removed! I am definitely on tilt. I am very angry! With me (cos I opened the wrong trade at the wrong time)! With the market! All the ****ing time like that! Kill my stop and go down like a falling knife!!!

It is funny how I always bet on the worst horse! How the hell is it even possible?! :slight_smile:

Look at my USD/JPY flying over the rainbow!! :slight_smile:

I didn’t get home in time. Unfortunately. News disappointed a bit and 40 pips are gone already. Now the situation is not clear at all.

I will move the stop close and I will pray! :wink:

I still think we will see a bullish USD this week and the next if news won’t disappoint too much but at the moment after the bad new everything is possible. In the worst case I will bank something and buy back deeper (hopefully)

SL hit at 0.9245 (+33 pips)

Total: +182 pips

Kind of angry to get just 33 pips out of my last trade!

But of course please mind that I could be very wrong!

Long USD/JPY at 98.53

SL (secret but it is there :-P)

Not sure I picked a great moment to open the trade! Let’s see

Closed at break even! Not sure what the market wants to do. Let me be on the sideline! :slight_smile:

Long USD/CHF at 0.9239

SL 0.9150

TP 0.94

don’t dislike this for scalp but 94??? maybe…but i do not like that 2hr candle

since shorted a bit

Hopefully it will go back to 0.97 and more but maybe we have to wait September to come and the taper to happen first!

I don’t like it too at the moment! This stupid market changes sentiment too fast unfortunately!
