GBPJPY 1.04% Return Trade Closed
Good Morning guys, I just not to long ago closed this buy on GBPJPY - I Took the trade yesterday evening and held it (during the Asian session overnight) I just woke up
Let me explain why I took this trade
These are my confirmations\questions >
Question 1 - Was GBPJPY in momentum (bullish or bearish)?
Yes, GBPJPY was in bullish Momentum at the time of me looking at it
Question 2 - Who was interested (at that time)?
Buyers were interested at that time
Question 3 - Where were their stop losses?
Stop losses would have been right below the highlighted levels (purple circles) & below the purple horizontal line (break out buyers)
Question 4 - Have those stop losses been taken out?
Yes I believe Stop losses would have been taken out already on GBPJPY (Red X)
Question 5 - Did the set up make sense for me to pursue?
Yes I believe it made sense for me to pursue this trade given the information I had
When I woke up GBPJPY had a moved a massive 1:7.55 RRR, considering the fact that I risked 0.25% on this trade that would have meant had I closed at that RRR I would have taken home about 1.88% on this trade
BUT, as you can see where I closed it, GJ had already pulled back a significant degree and in fear of it pulling back more and taking away more profit from me, I decided to close it (plus I'm going to be really busy today so I don't have the time to actively trail my stop as it goes further (which I do believe it can)
My broker also shows a gap (I use ICM, whereas FXCM (tradingview) does not show a gap, which means manipulation is occurring somewhere in this area
I closed the trade at 1.04% Return, doesn't sound like much but do the math on it from a much bigger account and tell me if you think it is worth it
Plus I literally have been having an excellent week where I haven't lost any trades for the week, I'm on fire this week, let's see if I can keep it up
I have many more confirmations I look for, this is just to simplify it so that I can quickly explain to you the reader

*Why don't I show my lot size?*
*How much money I make is no where near as important as HOW I took the trade*
