Targets have been hit on 3 of the 4 trades

Well I have to say that I am a bit cheesed off.

Three of the four trades I have identified and placed orders for in the past 48 hours, have hit their respective targets and the fourth trade is up 4%.

Below is a brief summary of what has happened.

Aussie / USD

Entry: 1.0470
Stop: 1.0495
Target: 1.0345

Price retraced to a high of 1.0444 which was 26 pips from my entry.
The trade was not triggered and the target of 1.0345 has been hit for a 5% profit.

On another day I would have banked 15% profit.

I would also have a position that had locked in a further 1% profit with the position still open.

I have been a tad unlucky this week.

Things will turn around and profits will start to roll in.

I will post again when I have a good strategy trade

Have a good afternoon

Best Regards

Scott
