As you can see on the chart, it looks like we caught the end of the short term downtrend, and the trade went against us for a -30 pip stop loss. I still like a longer term short on EUR/JPY- maybe weeks or months – but for the Pick of the Days, we’ll stick to our shorter time frame. Looking back on this trade, I had a feeling to go short at 148.50, but played it safe with a short at 148.30. We definitely would’ve hit a pt1 with that move. In the future, it’s no guts, no glory right!? So, I’ll choose entries closer to market in order to catch the narrow price action we’ve been seeing all summer. Not a great way to start September, but I’m sure we’ll find opportunity right around the corner!
Lot 1: -30 pips
Lot 2: -30 pips
Total: -60 pips
