Took 44 pips profit on 3/5's of my E/U short from 1.4857

I'll leave the other 2/5's open for now.

Stop is at B/E

I got stopped out on 2/5's that I left on as a runner. Euro still looks strong back up at the top of range. Tokyo just opened at 1.4850

Going for a little scalp here at 1.4845 TP1.4835 SL 1.4870

Risk 25 to get 10 not to smart

I bought 1.6529 stopped out for -20

I bought 1.6396 stopped out for -20

Caught in bad news on the pound.

should have just stayed away

Small position but still ruin a good week and have this feeling hang around.

1.6396 could of held if I had a bigger stop. But 1.6529 had already hurt.

Loose a trade, call it a day and something else. Especially if it is a discretionary trade. Revenge came into play on this. I loss and it went to the next support level I bought and my stop was too tight. Hoping to get back my loss and a lot more. Hours lock in a trade that did not work.

I loss of 3% turn off the computer and do something else for a day or two PERIOD. You have a loss GAME OVER. Do something else.

After getting burned by the Pound crash Friday I haven't even really looked for a trade. I may have to stay Monday and Tuesday to be sure that I'm ready. No Power Levels published yet this week anyway. Market quite, I sleep.

I will stay out until have my head on straight.

I took the short on A/U and will step back and just let it play out. I think I'm suffering burn out from trade smaller time frames. I just gotten sick of trading. I stay up all night wait for the move and as soon as I sleep it moves.

I need a bit of a rest and trading the dailies will provide that for me.

Thanks for the website AshFX. It has been a port in my trading storm.
