GBPJPY Forex trading – luck on my side!

GBPJPY Forex trading - luck on my side!

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

GBPJPY – trade

GBPJPY - trade

I went short on the GBPJPY forex pair today at 136.75 and too profit at 136.25 for a 50 pip profit. It was looking good for a short as it had once again bounced off a top pattern at around 136.90...  I had intended on just keeping the trade running and gradually move the stoploss down as the price action was moving my way but when it started to look a bit funny in the charts and also as there was some resistance previously at 136.25 area, I thought it would be safer to take my profits!
