07:25 - L EUR 1.2339 stp 1.2335 - trend, 5/10-min pb10ema, low vol pb
07:31 - Exit 1.2349 +10 ticks - target hit
Note: Target quickly hit as price suddenly rocketed by 30 ticks! This is the disadvantage of 1 contract trades - predefined targets fail to capture big moves.
My Comment: Followed my rules. No hesitation taking trade setup.
Trade 2
09:14 - L EUR 2 x 1.2403 stp 1.2397 - trend, 10-min pb10ema
09:17 - Exit 2 x 1.2397 -12 ticks - stop hit
Note: Traded 2 contracts in error. Failed to reconfigure installed new version of ZLT to trade only 1 contract.
Trade 3
09:29 - L EUR 1.2400 stp 1.2397 - trend, 10-min pb10ema
09:35 - Exit 1.2397 -3 ticks - stop hit
Note: Did not take profit at top of BB for +5 ticks and held on for target of 10 ticks, which was not reached and stop me out instead. Stop may have been too close but I stuck to my plan that if price goes back to 1.2397, I'm out.
My Comment: Tough luck, but I feel I did a good job of sticking to the plan. Losses are part of the business. The market will present better opportunities next time.
