The story of Yirbu

[Yirbu]

Before I go to sleep....
My last trade traveled quite a distance: 50+ pips and counting, no fancy stuff....I just left it alone.
I often want to keep trades overnight but most of the time I fail miserably.
....I tend to wake up in the morning, just in time to see that there are only 4 pips left before b.e. takes me out.

Now, I took some off the table and am going to try again to keep some overnight.
I know my b.e. point is not at a good position but the Asian range is about 30pips or so.

Should be fairly safe....

Good to post a follow up.
This morning I woke up and nothing terrible happened...my position even gained an additional 20 pips.
As there was red news on EU I wanted to be ready to trade this. Either buy some more or close my long position.
Unfortunately I was stuck in a traffic jam so I missed the news. Too bad because I am sure I would have taken advantage of it.

When I was home I closed my long position at about the same price as yesterday evening.
Could hop on a short and the market gave me some more.

I am happy

Nice work

I really, really hate this time of the year. Its getting colder, its dark real soon and it is raining non stop for two weeks now. If it doesn't stop raining, I am afraid I need to buy a boat soon.

I like fall but it doesn't last long. We already had our first 3 inches of snow October 31st. Its possible to get snow 7 months out of the year here.

Really? That's nice. I like snow but I don't like the mud and dirt that comes with it. Unfortunately due to global warming we dont have much snow anymore. When everything freezes and I can ice-skate on a lake is the best.

I don’t mind snow for about 1 month then anymore than that is to much.
