UK100 Ascending Triangle - Long Order
Updated
UK100 Ascending Triangle Long Position
Entry: £6,861.3
TP & RR: £7,036.9 (2.21)
Stop Loss: £6,781.8
REASONS FOR THE TRADE
Unfortunately, this is not a trade that I will take since I already have enough positions for the day and my system prohibits me from being overexposed. From a technical point, this seems like a sound trade - testing lower trendline in ana ascending triangle and the Market Flow indicator printing a divergence. My sixth sense tells me, however, that this trendline may not hold... but it's usually wrong, that's why I count on technical indicators. The Stop Loss is far enough for you to evaluate if the price will drop down or will bounce up and start heading towards the target.
I will not count this trade in my journal but I will continue to update it as it goes.

Trade closed: stop reached
Well, I guess my sixth sense turned out to be correct here. Something was telling me that this was not a great trade, but if I haven't opened so many positions probably I would have taken this one. Anyway, I hope that those of you who were paying attention to this level shorted it after the breakdown.
