- Just started looking at the online tutorial in #RapidMiner #
- Got through a few pages of the tutorial in #RapidMiner. It's well organized and easy to follow so far after a few pages. #
- USD/CHF touched 1.045 as expected. Unfortunately, I couldn't set a target stop so I missed the exit! I need to figure how to overcome it #

- reading up about Oanda's trading platform. I need to find out about advanced order placement. #
- Just sent an email to support at Oanda. Doesn't seem to have a way to do OCO order on current position. #
- Oanda customer service replied my question on advanced ordering. Now I know how to do it! #
- USD/CAD shot up to 1.09. My 1.0666 call was indeed the bottom, but I was 5 pips too low and failed to catch it. Need to work on that… #
- Moved my USD/CHF stop up to 1.380. Just below the short term trendline support. #
- Correction, that should have been USD/CHF at 1.0380 #
- my last stop for USD/CHF at 1.0380 just got triggered #

- #RapidMiner … this is exciting stuff! #
- I'm on step 11 of 26 in the #RapidMiner tutorial. The examples presented are getting complicated, and useful #
