usd/cad analysis

I knew the overall trend was a downtrend I took a trade on the counter trend/retracement back to the quarter level then I told my self if it broke through 1.25750 I would trade it to 1.2600 if not I would look for sells to
1.2500 and it played out pretty close to what I was expecting while I was sleeping:/. Atleast I was able to catch one of those trades and I didnt loose money I guess. This is my third month trading.
