12:00am EST- There was a moving average crossover for a short trade. RSI was less than 50, stochastics were trending down, and MACD went from positive to negative. This was a valid entry. The entry was at the close of the candle at 1.9945 with a stop at the most recent swing high at 1.9968. Since I was 45 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I decided to put my initial target at 1.9900.

Initial Target: 1.9900
