This trade is now closed and it features some of the mistakes i make while trading, owing to the fact that i don't usually like holding positions over the weekend i reduced my profit target to 13600.This target was reached at around 18:50 GMT but i wasn't able to collect on my prediction because i had closed out my position at 13512 in haste before US markets opened.Hindsight as usual painfully revealed that all i needed to do was set a tight stop loss.However total pips gained in this trade was 111 and profit was £55 pounds excluding the cost of the spread.Account at break even.
Verdict: Loot
