Buying GBP/USD

Updated
Hey folks!

It's been a long time since I've posted anything here or even traded on my live accounts.

As a first, I've just opened a long position on GBP/USD for the followings reasons:

  • As Brexit talks are heated more and more traders try to a anticipate the course of the sterling.
  • As seen on the daily chart we have a very strong engulfing candle that could signal a continued rising.
  • On the hourly chart you will see a bullish triangle that confirms this idea.


Note: Even if the above mentioned is true there is a huge chance that the position will end up in Stop Loss.

Don't be afraid to be wrong, take the chance to test your ideas.

Trade closed: stop reached
The position ended with reaching the Stop Loss. I haven't taken into consideration the possible reversal for the double top.
Trade closed: target reached
I reentered the position, upped my game with 0.4% risk to 1.3% and it hit Take Profit.

Today's in green.
