I've got another trade engaged, based on Strategy 2. The currency pair seems to be moving sideways, not too sure whether it'll go up or down. So how this trade closes is still a mystery...lol...

I've learnt an important lesson while trading yesterday. We must really practise detaching ourselves from emotions during trading. Not only applies to stop loss, but also profit taking. Do not be greedy and try to out beat the market, coz you may end up losing a trade which was originally winning and supposingly closing much earlier.
