Tried to profit off of movements of the Greenback using Euros, Loonies and Yen. My own currency kicked me in the teeth a couple times, and good risk management stopped the bleeding before it got too bad. Through out the session I managed to squeek out a small gross profit and loss.

What makes it so gross is that it was eaten by the $224.28 in commissions and fees. The bright side is I know I'm good for enough trades to keep my news service free. For the day, however, I was down more than a whole case of beer. Having slimmer fees, it is very easy to get tempted by every twitch in the price action. I'm shifting gears and shorting USD/CAD and going long EUR/USD looking at taking profit towards the extreme levels below parity and above 1.6
