Today’s Surf
1:00am ET– 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 2.0180 with a stop at the most recent swing high at 2.0197. Since I was 30 pips away from the nearest 00 or 50 level I decided to put my target at 2.0150.
Entry: Short at 2.0180
Stop: 2.0197
Initial Target: 2.0150
1:45am ET– Unfortunately I was stopped out of my trade.
