The lettering (i.e "A") in the trade usually mean's the trade was modified, i.e. S/L changed either to allow more room for the trade or in a an attempt to minimize lose or to preserve profits, or target changed.

The InterbankFx platform froze on me for the past 15min could have taken more money off the table with this one probably. It appears only the EUR/USD quotes have been "frozen in time" hope it moves soon..
 
Good trade, compounding.


I'll have to leave you to trade alone for the next few hours or so. I going to get some sleep now.

I won't wish you too much luck...

Hey, good trade on that USD/JPY!:) I wish you good luck too, but not too much. I also have somewhere to be at 11:00pm EST, hope the InterbankFx platform unfreezes, so that I can see where the pair is at and hopefully queeze in another trade before I have to leave...

Note: On average my S/L's are 10-15 pips. In this particular trade it is 25 pips. Why? because I won't have the convenience of being at my desk to monitor this trade. This trade I'm expecting to collect more pips than I usually do (10-20 pips) because I will be holding on to this trade for a few hours...
 
Overall Trade Record should actually say Trade 5.

Not use to these kind of trades where I will hold on for so long :| , so I've adjusted my S/L. Since my S/L is 52 pips from my opening, I will expect to collect at least 100-150 pips from this trade. Otherwise it is a failure in my book.

So this is no longer an intraday trade like I usually do, I might hold this one all the way to day's end depending on how things look...I will also lower my S/L when appropriate.
