11/20/07 Trading Notebook

    Popped a trade out of the box after significant gains by EUR/USD and then started falling to support regions:

    8:40 AM -

    Sell 100,000 at 1.4789

    S/L - 1.4805

    T/P - 1.4770 (50.0 Fib Line)

    9:24 - And then it just sat there… stagnant - no more than 5 pips up or 3 pips down. Oh well… Like watching a rope freeze.

    The fundamentals say it might sit there all day until the FOMC meeting minutes are published at 1:00 PM. Going to sit on the trade all the same.

    After 2 hours, it was up 5 PIPs, so I took it.

    11:51 AM

    Buy 100,000 at 1.4784.

    Net Gain of $50.00

    That's it for today. Made 1 trade and $50.00.
