GBP/CAD: Long @ 1.7928 is up 300 pips! It was up 600 but I haven't closed it yet

I entered a long on this pair GBP/CAD after the free fall proceeding the BoE minutes. Again patience paid off and I scooped a good buy. The only groan i have about this trade is that while I was sleeping it spike up to a positive 700 or so pips and I missed my closing price that would have pocketed me another 700 pips. I will leave this trade open for the weekend and see if it heads back up to the 88-89 level if it does thats another 1000 pip trade! Lets see where it goes in the next coming week. My stop is just above the buy line at a + 50 pips. If I consulted my crystal ball I would have known to put in a limit order and took home another 700 pips but I didn't - More proof that I'm not a perfect trader.
