New Trade

ISM non-mfg came in stronger than expected, and EUR/USD soared after the initial selloff.  The move looked a bit overdone, so I shorted with low leverage, looking to close out intraday.

Short June '15 6E (EUR/USD) @ 1.1193, stop set up at 1.1208

Update
Looks like there was more to go.  Heavy buying in a few spurts after European markets closed pushed EUR up fast on no news.  Stopped out.  Thinking it has again run its course, Short 6E @ 1.1217, stop set at 1.1223, medium leverage.

I'd be interested to know where the heavy buying interest is coming from all of a sudden.

closed at 1.1208.  Gain on trade, but loss for the day is what I reported in the last trade, so I'll leave it at that.
