Today's Surf
2:30am EST- There was a moving average crossover for a short trade. RSI was less than 50, stochastics were trending down and MACD was positive and losing value. This was a valid entry.
The entry was at the close of the candle at 1.5132 with a stop at the most recent high at 1.5169. Since I was 32 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I decided to put my initial target at 1.5100.
Entry: Short at 1.5132 Stop: 1.5169 Target: 1.5100
3:15am EST- Unfortunately I was stopped out of my trade.
Trade Result: -37 pips (NOT INCLUDING SPREAD) R-Multiple: -1.00
