So, I lost about 100K yesterday during NFP data releases -- my Eur/Chf position did not open --- this was my own fault -- I changed the entry point so often that I missed entry every time
I will be going long next week in on this pair
My Aud/Nzd long broke 1.10 level

This was not the biggest problem, though

I made some pips selling Eur/Usd and Gbp/Usd right after NFP release, and wanted to put in SL's but my trading software would not accept them: It kept giving me the message ' SL can only be adjusted towars tightening'
I tried a couple of times, even leaving distances of 20 pips instead of the required 10, but to no avail; same message;
there must be something wrong with the software/or there are rules/software changes pre-release of major data that I do not know of
or understand; anyway I got nervous and closed the manually on the spot,
I didn't want to do this because it effect your score of position quality negatively......

This messed with me psychologically and while the market was still restless I tried to make up for it by trading other pairs hoping to catch small movements with a SL and TP (stupid)
Every time I lost one I would go in larger, until I could take it no more, and just gave up

(for me another lesson learnt (again) -- never try to force the issue; you can only trade with a pre-calculated plan, there is never any easy money in trading)

Anyway, I will try to pull myself together (my apologies to my Social Trader Mirrorers) and get it right again next week

As I said, I will be long Eur/Chf and I will review the rest of the market tomorrow
I will be going out to dinner with the wife and friend tonight, so that will be fun ;-)

I hope you all have a great weekend and see you next week
