I traded what I said. I bought EU, however after 20 minutes I decided to trade EJ.
My total performance was magnificent considering I could trade only one position due to small account [so no position management was possible].
Finally I lost 1/3 of my gains due to greediness and giving up on my trading plan.

I am still short on tiny EURPLZ contract as Polish Zloty lost terribly on Thursday-Friday panic what was totally irrational. Will possibly keep this position forever as a carry trade.

With massive opening gap EU is a benchmark of nearest market sentiment.
In general if Monday's price action won't surprise us with any extraordinary movement I will trade short below Friday's high or today's low, or long above today's high.

In eneral I do believe monday will set top or bottom of this week.
