Regarding risk management, it is always best to define your strategy according to your own risk profile. For some guidance on trade management, read one of my articles on that topic.

Following my trade entry on Monday Oct10 at $ 92.50, I was yesterday dragging down my stop at $ 91.16 to secure some profits. The next level where I was dragging it down was $ 90.47, following a further price drop once CL’s price went below $ 88.46, shortly after I published yesterday’s trade update. The first target of $ 87.08 just got hit as the black gold lift is now going down! Please remember the step by re-adjusting your stop for other contracts at the new $ 89.01 price level, so you will not give away most of the remaining profits in case of a strong rebound.
That’s all, folks, for today – Happy trading!
As always, we’ll keep you, our subscribers well informed.
