Today I only looked for short trades until 3am EDT. After 3am EDT I only looked for long trades.
Today’s Surf
4:15am EDT– There was a moving average crossover for a long trade. RSI was greater than 50, MACD was negative and gaining value, but stochastics were still trending down. This cancelled out the signal and I did not enter.
6:15am EDT– 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 1.9635 with a stop at the most recent swing low at 1.9608. Since I was 15 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I decided to put my initial target at 1.9650.
Entry: Long at 1.9635
Stop: 1.9608
Initial Target: 1.9650
7:30am EDT– Unfortunately I was stopped out of my trade.
