First I lost about 1000 pips (yes, 1K pips) on buying eur/usd, I was stopped out at the low 1.2660. And missed a 300 pips run, I was trading with 10x + size.
Then I long usd/jpy, finally got lucky which BOJ act, I got all the lost back and break even for the YEAR!
This lucky trade (no mistake, it's purely lucky trade) deserve a drink. I'm having it now...
I was at the swimming class (for my son) when BOJ act, I was watching it jump up pip by pip and I said to myself, finally something happened. Too bad, I had already all-in, and there is no money left on the table to buy. Well, I had changed my leverage from 50:1 to 30:1 due to previous big lost, now I was hoping I didn't do that, oh well, I also hope I didn't have a stop at 1.2660 for EUR/USD... well, stop can only save you right?
That is hell of a roller coaster ride! I wasn't as lucky as you during this month's NFP, in fact I was but I didn't grab my chance and I fell back till now. Cheers to you RCM!
