DOW JONES trade… yet more profits on the table

DOW JONES trade... yet more profits on the table

I got in the perfect entry today after seeing the market was trending down and I got in at 8382..  I got out far too early though at 8355 so grabbed only 27 points.. the market fell as far as 8285 which was a further 70 points..  I am finding it difficult to hold onto profits and 27 points is so measly compared with what it could have been!

USDCAD – forex trade

USDCAD - forex trade

The USDCAD currency pair moved significantly lower today but it bounced off 12245. I saw that the forex pair was oversold and went in on the swing high after the initial pullback after the bounce off 12245. I got in at 12335 with a 50 pip stop..  I had no target this time round as I expected this to be a bounce before a possible retest of the support line (12245). The market went as high at 12420 but I got out at 12405 as the market formed a spike down.. I got my 70 pips!!

Left profits on the table – EURUSD

Left profits on the table - EURUSD

I wasn't quite in the trading mood today, felt rather tired but I went long EURUSD anyway. I was lucky as it shot up 5 mins or so after my entry... I got in at 12532 and got out at 12619 for +87 pips. However, I got out a bit too early as the market continued to shoot up and I am currently seeing prices of 12711.. I have left profits on the table, in fact, 90 odd points I've missed out on... I only have got out half of what I could have taken! Nevermind, a profit is a profi.. especially consider
