Trading with 5m Force strategy, Day 25

First day of the week. It started with a price gap down for EURUSD and also fr other EUR related currency pairs due to Cyrprus related news.
Figure 01: EURUSD 5m chart
It was huge >150 pips down. Price then started to move sideways. Before the open of London session, price started to move upwards with force long entry signal. I could not takeit as price was moving both ways. I got confused. I wanted to stay out but I actually took the force sell signal. I wanted to see whether force signal is safe or not.

Immediately before open price went down and after open, price went up. Here ar my trades.

Total 37 pips loss with force signaly during the London opening hours. A bad day for alll. Many trader lost from the starting of the day.

As price showed some unexpected behaviour..... Price produced a huge gap down, so an upward movement was expected. I think I got that immediately after the London open.
Figure 04: EURUSD 5m chart
Got  41 pips there. Price started to bounce back from the upper supply area.
Figure 05: EURUSD 5m chart
Price retraced to weekly S1and also backed by fib level 23.6%. Price went to previous supply area for the second time. It's likely to pull back.
Figure 06: EURUSD 5m chart. Pull back from supply area
Price moved more than 30 pips but before that it again pulled back to upper supply area. Then I left the screen. I had to go outside. I can't stay infront of screen all the time. Two good opportunity came two and half hours after the NY open. Two sell signals. Before going to bed I took another sell signal. As I had to go to bed after day long market monitoring I gout out of my short trade with 7 pips. But later found, I could take lot more.

Over all I had 10 pips positive gain. But Force strategy gave >30 pips loss. Actually, I think all was not force fault. My execution was bad. But my other trades saved me.
