GBPJPY trade update

As I mentioned last night, I had gone long on the GBPJPY at 174.21 with a 50 pip stop loss and a 45 pip trailing stop.

I could have held it longer.. it's gone up another 20 points since but I can't prise myself off this computer when the charts are moving. I think the market has further to go.. there was a huge reversal on the US and UK markets today after all the help with the Financials from various governments.
