Swingin' the currencies journal

I only posted in your thread simply because your trading style resembles mine,most other people are scalpers after 20,30 pips with tight stops.

stopped out at +20, i just broke my rules of wide stops :(. even on an hourly trade though i would scale out half and other half put to BE. just shouldnt have fiddled with it
 
"stopped out at +20, i just broke my rules of wide stops "

3 limits filled while away.
LONG NZDUSD- 50 ema pullback
LONG AUDUSD-pullback to trendline
LONG EURJPY-was very patient with this one, was sitting for more than 2 weeks, limit at major trendline

profit on open positions is now just 300 pips, compared to the 1000 pips i was rollin' in a few days ago.

bugger! down 100 pips on open positions.

Don't give two sh!ts , because closing now would be tampering, plus on a live account i would have already covered half of my position and so id be up around 1200 pips anyway.
