Comments:
The squeeze indicator was eventually right with the direction. I placed a tight stop than I should have (100 pips would have been more suitable). As it always happens, the pair move to hit my stop and then proceeded to move lower. The entry was a good one and I entered the trade as soon as the signal was given.
