Today’s Surf
2:45am EST– There was a moving average crossover for a short trade. RSI was less than 50, stochastics were trending down but MACD was already negative from the previous candle. This cancelled out the signal and I did not enter.
3:30am 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 1.6487 with a stop at the most recent swing high at 1.6501. Since I was 37 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I decided to put my target at 1.6450.
Entry: Short at 1.6487 Stop: 1.6501 Target: 1.6450
