EURUSD SHORTED ON 833PM 05102016 - CLOSED WITH PROFIT


833 pm 05102016

Shorted the EuroUSD
1) trendline on top
2) breached trendline at bottom
3) EUR tapering is a rumour
4) Dollar strength should be continuing


Stop loss - 1 bar
RR: 2

333 pm on 06102016
Currently position is ITM.
Base stop loss on trendline.

Feelings - neutral.


TRADE CLOSED DUE TO TARGET HIT.
EURUSD CONTINUES TO BREACH TRENDLINE AS SEEN BELOW.

TOOK A SMALL TRADE ON EURUSD TO LONG - with limited risk - about 12 pips, assuming it was the bottom of the channel but got stopped out.

Good things about this trade:
1) stuck to targets.
2) controlled emotions well.
3) ensured a proper risk reward.
4) longing EURUSD at supposed bottom of channel seemed like a good idea - on hindsight, should have put stop loss to breakeven to prevent further occurence.
