Today’s Surf
12:30am 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 1.6640 with a stop at the most recent swing high at 1.6646. Since I was 40 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I decided to put my target at 1.6600.
Entry: Short at 1.6640 Stop: 1.6646 Target: 1.6600
2:45am EST– Unfortunately I was stopped out of my trade. (-6 pips)
