Updates - 25 Jan 2017:
- Yesterday close was a good one for the bear as it cancelled off it initial upwards movement and closed a shooting star. Also daily closed below 50MA resistance
- Hopefully this will serve as a good basis for the bear to continue towards previous swing low.
- Will certainly hold on to my trade in the hope of reaching my PT within the next 2 weeks

Updates - 30 Jan 2017:
- Finally got the chance to update my journal, been in CNY holiday mode since... Need to be more discipline in updating my journals... (CNY resolution.. lols...)
- Last week closed with a bullish reversal engulfing candle after breaking down the 50MA resistance.
- I will hold on to this trade and would expect this pullback to retest the 20MA resistance and hopefully continue its current downward trend.

Updates - 1 Feb 2017:
- Yesterday candle did tested the 20MA resistance and closed a bullish candle with a long upside wick (Shooting star?)
- Building on this, i would hold on to this trade and see how the price react to the 20MA.
- However, i need to be wary about the upcoming GBP rate and policy release in this coming Thursday. Potential trade adjustment will be made in the coming days.

- Lesson of the year!!! Exit trade before rate or policy announcement....
- Because of greed in chasing the potential profit, i was hoping the announcement to be in my favor thus didnt execute my exit rule.(This is same for all my GBP trades)
- For this, i paid the price.... my previous 90pips has now evaporated and i have exit my trade at breakeven.
- Yesterday candle closed a bullish engulfing but yet to close above the 10/20MA resistance. This could be another chance to short?? lets see
