USDCAD strong support, will it hold? Long

U.S. Dollar/Canadian DollarFXCM

Description

If it does, that looks like a 5:1 reward-to-risk trade!

A word of advice regarding trade management now that this prediction failed: I tend to minimize my risk by moving the stop loss order up to breakeven, by the time the unrealized profit hits 1 reward-to-risk ratio. In this example, when USDCAD hit 1.2950, I moved the stop loss up 25 pips, close to entry price. Should it had hit 2-to-1 RR ratio (1.2975), my stop loss would have been moved to 1.2950 and so forth.
