All Good Things Must Come To An End

After about a month and a half of a good move in our favor, a number of our positions were closed out yesterday--all with profits. Listed below are those trades:

CLOSED OUT SYMBOL ENTRY OUT PROFIT DAYS
Long Aussie ADZ10 99.37 99.97 $600 8
Long Aussie FXA 99.78 100.48 0.7% 8
