Today's Surf

3:00am EST- There was a moving average crossover for a long trade. RSI was greater than 50, stochastics were trending up, and MACD went from negative to positive. This was a valid entry. The entry was at the close of the candle at 1.9506 with a stop at the most recent swing low at 1.9452. Since I was 44 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I decided to put my target at 1.9550.

Entry: Long at 1.9506
Stop: 1.9452
Initial Target: 1.9550

8:15am EST- My target wasn't hit by this time and I knew that news was coming up at 8:30am EST, so I closed out my trade. I exited at 1.9487.

9:45am EST- There was a good signal here, but because it was right before the consumer sentiment report I did not enter.

Trade Result: -19 pips : R-Multiple: -0.35
