Today's Surf
2:15am EST- There was a moving average crossover for a long trade. RSI was greater than 50, stochastics were trending up and MACD was negative and gaining value. This was a valid entry.
The entry was at the close of the candle at 1.5784 with a stop at the most recent low at 1.5754. Since I was 16 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I put my initial target at 1.5800.
Entry: Long at 1.5784 Stop: 1.5754 Target: 1.5800
2:30am EST- My target was hit. Price did not make a clean break so I took my final profit. I managed to exit at 1.5795.
8:15am EST- This was not a signal because MACD was already positive and it was right before news.
Trade Result: +11 pips (NOT INCLUDING SPREAD) R-Multiple: 0.36
News events to watch for tomorrow:
- 4:30am EST- UK Revised GDP q/q

Fridays can be considered "no trade day" for many Forex traders, especially the first Friday of the month. How does this system work for Fridays? I know you can usually get more erratic movements on Fridays.
Hi I'd like to ask, when the trade is going long does this mean that the dollar is strong or weak against the pound? Thanks for all your efforts.
