Yeah, lol, there might have been a dozen or so days in the past few years where the EUR/USD went higher than this; not good odds for further gain. The thing bugging me (and hurting my option positions) is the disconnect between equities and euro ...

I never place SLs; can't count the number of times I've had one hit by a fraction of a pip. I do set alarms though if I'm going to keep a trade open longer than a few minutes. Of course that doesn't help much now lol. Small trade though
