Short 1 (500) @ [...]

Sitting, Waiting, Wishing

I had to sit on this one for awhile but it just goes to show that it pays off to wait for the market to do it’s thing.  As long as the stop isn’t hit, or something fundamental doesn’t change dramatically, then you just have to stay in.

Long 1 (200 units) AUDUSD @ 6943 [...]
