Open:
Short 2 @ 1.0076. 15m TC18, 10 ticks bracket, ready to trade 4 contracts at 30m TC18.
Close:
It got down to 1 tick from 10 ticks target and moved back up. Targets moved to +5 and +10.
1st: Cover 1 @ 1.0071. First target hit, 6 ticks heat. 30m TC18 order reduced to 3 contracts, the remaining stop loss 10 ticks after that.
2nd: Cover 1 @ 1.0070. The price moved up to -2 after the first exit. Ran out of patience and decided to close out. Probably would've been able to get 10 ticks.

Open:
Short 1 @ 1.0071. 15m FSC, 8 ticks to 5m TC18, 18 ticks to 15m TC18 where I was ready to add in 4 contracts. 10 ticks target.
Close:
Cover 1 @ 1.0066. 5 ticks profit, 1 ticks heat. Didn't wait for the target to hit, was a little jittery trading SC. Could've had at least 10 ticks, if trailed 20 ticks.

Open:
1st: Short 1 @ 1.0105. 15m TC18, ready to add in 3 contracts at 30m TC18 11 ticks above. Initially had 3 contracts at 15m TC18, but didn't like the way it came up and the short distance, good call.
2nd: Short 3 @ 1.0116. 30m TC18. 10 ticks stop. Targets 3 at 10 ticks from addin, 1 at 15 ticks from addin, 4 ticks from first entry or trail.
Close:
1st: Cover 1 @ 1.0112. +1 tick from addin. It was quite slow, decided to take off 1 to reduce some risk.
2nd: Cover 3 @ 1.0106. Target hit. 23 ticks in total, no heat. Probably should've left 1 contract at +10 from first entry or trail. It went down to +20 from first entry.
If low heat, always leave 1 contract to trail.
