Trade: LONG Limit Order EURUSD at 1.2970, spot was 1.2962

I had a hunch the ISM Manufacturing number for the U.S., would come in weaker than expectations.

So, I placed a LONG limit order at 1.2970 with a SL at 1.2950 when the spot was at 1.2962.

When the data came out weaker at 49 versus expectations of 50.6, the EURUSD pushed upwards, triggering out limit order at 1.2970.

We squared the position at 1.3014 for a trading profit of 44bps or 0.33%.

I am done for tonight, back to watching Korean drama and keep my wife company.

Goodnight all, see you tomorrow.
