Open:
Short 1 @ 1740.7. Gold Rush turned into a Good Night Gold trade, 60 ticks stop loss, 20 and 50 ticks target.
Put another short order at 1738.9, 1 tick below yesterday's low, with 30 ticks stop loss, 20 and 50 ticks target, and stop loss move to break-even if the first target is hit. Will leave that order on and go to sleep if it doesn't get hit soon and see how it goes.
Close:
Cover 1 @ 1738.7. Target hit, 3 ticks heat. Was being stupid, only put on 1 contract, but was thinking in 2 contract terms.
Open:
Short 1 @ 1738.6. Order was at 1738.9, 3 ticks slippage. I guess the first one was a Gold Rush trade, this one is a Good Night Gold trade since I'm keeping it. 50 ticks target, moved stop loss to 70 ticks from 60 ticks and put it 9 ticks above the last swing high. $500 of risk for the whole trade.
Close:
Cover 1 @ 1733.6. Target hit, wasn't watching it, 17 ticks heat.
2 contracts $700 gross, $686.12 net.
