You might be right. The second set of the day opened with 1 x buy and 1 x sell. I would have thought it would be the same for every set, but we'll wait and see.

To limit blowing the account i'm starting with 0.01 lots, and limiting the progression to a maximum 0.38 lots on a 5k account. If the trend continues, I'll keep the trades on and endure the DD until TP is hit. With a pair like EURGBP it comes back ...
