I got stopped out of my CADJPY long position yesterday, was not expecting a break of lows.

Looks like recent news events regarding the plane crash has been used to cite the move down in the JPY pairs.

I kept the CADJPY position open on my real account though. Was a bit uncomfortable with the 50 pip or so draw down. I closed most of the position after the news for +5 pips or break even. Not the way I expected it to go, but a break even is better then a loss, and you can't always be right!

EURUSD is down a bit, but it's at its second entry point, so I've added to my position and I've taken USDCHF short on my contest account for a small size (1 Million).

I'm in the green about 20 pips or so in USDCAD and will most likely close it, there are a lot of people looking to the upside on that one, and I don't want to be standing in the way.

I already have long CAD exposure anyway with my GBPCAD short which is now 140 pips in the green.
