This is why I like to scalp for Forex as it is very sensitive to political news as well. Take advantage of knee jerk reaction and temporary market inefficiencies to profit.

Some may not like US politics but when it comes to Forex and Futures trading a good knowledge of political news can help you to huat as well.

Uncle Trump is screwing up one matter after another. At least in the US there is no such thing as ownself check ownself or ownself say ownself song! Even the highest office holder the US president can get impeached! :D

Sorry to hear about that. What is your stop loss threshold? How many pips?

Today is the third Friday of the month whereby a lot of options expire and markets tend to be more volatile on this day.

It is official that Steve Bannon has resigned. Without this debacle USD strength will not have propelled. One man's loss is another man's gain. I appreciate what I have received from Mr. Market because I know someone else has lost money in order for me to gain.

Sl was 45 pips. It was at about 90 pips gain yesterday afternoon and I wanted to let it run but had to Ensure I took some gains if it retracts so I placed a sl at mid point of the gain.

It was a stop buy or sell order. No loss for you so cannot be considered as stop loss as you still have gains. :D
