This is where the more Advanced Traders could have considered these short trade, BUT (and I always say this), if you are unsure of the trend, or you are against the larger degree trend, you must always protect yourself quicker by using the 100% initial risk guideline.
This would have resulted in a break-even, then a +2.4R Profit (ignoring slippage and commission) for the more Advanced Traders among you yesterday......
Thanks, Steve
