Last night, I went short on the EURJPY after it looked like it made a double top.. I got in at 123.35 with a stop at 123.85 (50 points). I had a target of 124.65 and it got hit.. as I write this, the price action is at 122.85 which is almost 200 pips lower.. oh well, profits on the table but I made my 70 pips!

Last night the USDJPY charts made a double top pattern and I promptly sold. The odds seemed favourable so I got in at 98.20 with a 50 pip stoploss and 50 pip target
I shorted it as it came away from it's second peak.. I was a little cautious as the market had been in a long uptrend but the chances I felt going my way were favourable so I went for it.. unfortunately, my stop got hit earlier today.

Last night I sat and watched the Forex markets and there was a spike up showing strong support at around 135.65.. this also coincided with a trend line in the 4 hour chart (as below)... this was a cue for me to go long and I did at 137.02
I put a 100 pip stoploss and 100 pip target price and went to bed.
When I woke up, I saw that I was within 6 pips of being stopped out and that my trade had gone on to make a profit! Phew.. now that was lucky, usually I'll be stopped out first before
