Markets are extremely slow this Asia Session, due to Japan Bank Holidays. got me into a double hedge on USDJPY, which results in double the risk (as position size is incremented) that went out rather smoothly but the hedges on CADJPY took forever to complete. not a great day, but at least we made some Profits.
