Today's Surf

12:45am EST- There was almost a signal here but MACD was already negative so it cancelled it out. No entry!

5:15am 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 1.9734 with a stop at the most recent swing high at 1.9766. Since I was 34 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I decided to put my initial target at 1.9700.

Entry: Short at 1.9734
Stop: 1.9766
Initial Target: 1.9700

8:45am EST- My target was hit. Price did not make a clean break so I took my final profit. I managed to exit right at 1.9700 where the candle closed.

Trade Result: +34 pips: R-Multiple: 1.06

Hey..I got super lucky today cause I missed the trade at 5:15 but got in on the 8:45 bar crossovevr that actually hit the target. I missed out on 10 pips or so but..something is something. Have a good weekend.
Hello there. I was wondering is there anyone out there that would be managing my (and maybe others) account or is this allready doing? be well
When you said that you was 34 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level what did you mean ? Could you please explain ? Thanks !
