GBPUSD Hunch Trade

GBPUSD Hunch Trade

Today, I look at the charts as usual but didn't see any longer timeframe trades felt as though I was able to read the markets with the GBPUSD pair. I shorted at 15510 as you can see with a stop at 15540 and it wasn't long before my stop was hit. I had no signal to enter, just felt as though I knew what was happening. This sometimes happens when you have had some success lately, the confidence gets to you and then you get over confident with your abilities. The market then humbles you.

Grrr… GBPUSD loss today

Grrr... GBPUSD loss today

This is the third time this has happened in the last 3 days.. the first trade is a loss and the second trade is a winner resulting in a net deficit of -20 pips The first trade was a long as the market just peaks above the high line and then promptly falls both hitting the stop for the trade for -50 and then initiating the downside trade. The downside movement was quite large (almost 100 pips under the lower band) and I captured 30 of them.
