If you had the order you got your price. Do you have a stop? Profit target? Chart?

i answered your question by editing my post. Whether I stay in until my target or beyond or if I get out before my stop price is completely based on developing market conditions so I have no way of knowing if they are going to develop or not. I do see the potential of this going to 1.3870 or as high as 1.40, before it tests lower. But, I will add that what I think and what will actually happen will likely not line up

I won't give a blow by blow, but i'll let you know if works out in the end.

Ok. Once I read a post I do not usually go back to look for updates.

No problem, I don't expect a blow by blow, but it is nice to know risk/reward on the trade at initiation.

Good Luck,

Thales

Re: Reading Charts in Real Time
I didn't trade this one tonight but this is my typicaal manner of approaching the 6E ... I missed placing a short entry at 1.3612 on a sell stop, and then I did place a sell limit, but canceled before price retraced merely because I felt I had missed it and it was not going to retrace. At any rate, the play I'd really like for tomorrow is an opportunity to buy the 6E somewhere right around 1.3500...




Best Wishes,

Thales

GU trade played out very nicely. It surely has a lot more legs on the downside now.
