DislikedLost track of the trades here, as I was taking care of the real business...it was a tough trading environment to say the least.
New orders:
EURUSD
LIMIT SELL ORDER: 1.3465. TARGET I: 1.3430 (3/4 POSITION) ; TARGET II: 1.3415 (TARGET II IS TO BE RIDDEN WITH SL AT BE OR BE + a bunch of pips/ I'll see depending on how it goes...TP II should not close at a loss after that tp1 is attained) Sell order in Profit...shouldn't close below 10 pips profit.
USDJPY
LIMIT SELL ORDER: 121.85. TARGET I: 121.65 (1/2 POSITION); TARGET II: 121.55; TARGET III: 121.35 (POSITION III SL IS BE) Sell not yet triggered.
I hope you are having fun if you are reading this.
GBPUSD standing aside.
EURJPY standing aside... will look to buy at 162.90 with a profit in mind possibly in excess of 164.00.
USDCAD
LIMIT SELL ORDER AT 1.0850. TARGET I: 1.0780 (1/2 POSITION); REST RIDING WITH TRAILING SL FOR A LOT LOWER THAN THAT...can't guarantee it will happen, but that's the plan. Missed a good trading opportunity trying to go for the best possible entry...captured the move with another method (ema crossover)
AUDUSD
LIMIT BUY ORDER AT .8175. TARGET I: .8191; TARGET II: .820; TARGET III: 8215. took all profits out at .820
Lesson of the day: once a tp1 has been reached, NOTHING should ever close at less than BE. sometimes before it is reached...ensures that the account will grow.Ignored

Note: Nothing ever closes at a loss after being in profit for a while. Use trailing stops, discretion, or whatever~ they can get you out of some really good trades early, but for the person who wants to survive for a long time, it's the way to go.

My LIMIT buy around 3390 was not triggered. It dropped down to 33925 and reversed to hit 3450. I still am bullish about the other orders, but for now will cancel the limit buy at 3390.
