Trailing stop hit :(10:56

I doubt I'll get anymore trade opportunities today in EuroFX because I rarely get trade signals in it after 11am est unless its news related.10:58

Thus, after missing most of the early morning action between 3am - 9am est especially with my heavy short bias...10:59

I'll most likely end the day with a loss :(

No biggie but I'm mad about missing the earlier price action due to some distractions here at home.11:00
