Trade active:

Loving this trade! As expected price has moved pretty strong in my favor and already hit my first profit target giving me about 1.25%. I moved my stop loss to my entry price to bulletproof the trade and now just wait for movement to my next target. If it reverse ill get stopped out on the other half of my trade breakeven.

* I place orders using a hybrid entry meaning I divide my trade into two parts. Each one for 1% of my account totaling 2% risk total. Each half is set to a different profit target.

Trade closed manually:

Closed out my trade after today's moves. Big ol' lowtest formed right on support and what looks like a possible right shoulder to and inverse head and shoulders pattern. I took just under 1.5% from this trade. I'm prretty happy all around especially trading through some consolidation
