Always Made the Wrong Choice

I should have shorted EUR/JPY at 168.20.

Yesterday, I decided to go ahead and short AUD/USD at 0.8600.  Thanks to the housing data worries from the U.S., it brought all majors higher.  Euro, in particular, made a new high against US dollar.  Australian dollar went as high as 0.8635 before settling lower.

However, I did lower the stop loss to 0.8595 when it was trading at 0.8580 to protect the profit.  The stop loss order was hit.  I made 5 pips.

How about EUR/JPY?  I thought I'd wait for a day before I short it.  Bad decision.  It tumbled from 168.36 to 166.60 before settling at around 167.25.  Had I picked EUR/JPY yesterday rather than AUD/USD, I'd be a very man today.
