After Trade Comments:
When we first entered into this trade things weren't looking great and we almost got stopped out. However we had some USD strength step into the markets and ultimately we saw price make a move to the downside, eventually hitting our take profit. As we've said before this just shows the importance of trusting your strategy. If you've done everything to plan, then let that trade play out. Don't close a trade early just because it's not started well or because it's close to your take profit. Leave your trades alone. You set your take profit and stop loss where you did for a reason so why change it? It doesn't matter about what happens whilst you're in a trade. All that matters is the result. Let your edge playout and leave your trades alone. You'll either be wrong or right but if you exit early then you could close out of a trade with a loss that would of ended in profit. Once you start messing around with your plan you start to change your edge. Follow your plan exactly and you'll get the same results as your backtesting. With that being said, let's see what other opportunities there are in the markets.
