This EurUsd trade has been around a couple of days and not really going anywhere, so set up a couple of pending orders and the Recovery Management EA to try and close it out quickly today for BE.
If I feel the initial read is still valid, I will leave the trade alone, but that is not the case for this trade, so need to move on.

Sell Limit @ 1.35500
Sell Stop @ 1.35144
Cleared these EurUsd trades overnight and closed them a smidge above BE...so happy enough with that and can move on

EurJpy Sell @ 136.730
GbpUsd Sell @ 1.62719

EurJpy closed at -53 pips
GbpUsd still open - currently -41 pips
BASA is not being friendly to me so far this month, GbpUsd closed at SL for -75 pips, so far this week everything I have made on 10.6 trades BASA has given back on me. Mind you, I would never have taken this Gbp trade as the 60MA had just barely crossed the 240 to indicate a Sell.

Hopefully BASA will be kinder to me the rest of the month.

EurJpy - Buy Stop @ 140.504
GbpJpy - Buy Stop @ 169.677
Jpy is going down quite strongly, these 2 jpy trades are set in anticipation of a break back above the 240MA

NzdJpy - Buy Limit @ 85.115
Nzd has already crossed over the 240MA, but only just...buy limit set as my preferred entrance would have been at the cross which I just missed

Well this trade was clearly a bit premature, with Eur weakening slightly overnight and is currently -118 pips
I've set a buy stop this morning just above the 60lwma and looking to close out both trades at BE

I have closed the EurJpy with the Eur weakening slightly overnight, but will keep an eye on it.
Leaving the GJ pending in place, but don't think it will fill until perhaps later this week

Probably a little premature on this trade as well, currently - 30 pips
I have added a 2nd sell stop just below the daily pivot at 0.89720. Still reasonably comfortable that this trade will work out ok so not treating it as recovery yet. Regular TP etc still in place
