Buying a goldminer! EUR:JPY trade closes out for a loss
Turquoise Hill Resources (TRQ) is an international gold copper and coal miner operating mainly in the Asia Pacific region. The share price has risen up through the 50MA and has caught my eye. To me the share is a compelling buy. The last time that it rose through its 50 MA was in 2009 and it then went on to increase in value by 600%. I have opened a long position in TRQ this week.
My short EUR:JPY trade closed today for a loss. Damm! This trade has been open for a few weeks and was progressing nicely.
However, the euro strengthened against the yen and the price rose up and hit my trailing stop, closing the trade for a loss. Rules are rules, however, and I never move my stop in the opposite direction of a trade. I calculated how much I was prepared to risk on the trade before I went into it. Interested in my rules?
