As it turned out, Cowboy Go Markets didn't force the Empty4 update, so BASA continued to work as per normal.

This trade is now closed after taking a stacked trade for +46

Price has moved too far away from sell limit, I was annoyed I missed the sell stop at that level but confident price is still heading down.

Deleted NZDJPY Sell Limit order and placed a Sell stop @ 82.480
Order filled at 82.480

NZDUSD filled at 0.81047
EURUSD filled at 1.34979 - currently down 25 pips but looking at the charts I'm still confident this trade will turn around. If anything I probably got in a bit too early. Should have been a bit more patient and waited for the retrace and look to get in at 1.35098. I still might...

NZDUSD - currently +12

Closed at +50 TP :clap:
I know I left pips on the table, but playing my live account conservatively and happy to take chunks of +50 pips often.
