145 pips from GBP/USD swing trades!

As mentioned last week, I got a couple of GBP/USD swing trades (since Jan-24 and Jan-25). I played these swing trades rather aggressive (and quite of the averaging mentality) and thus, I didn't place any stop losses.

But earlier, the NFP announcement brought the currency pair down more than 200 pips after 8.30am EST!
