Today’s Surf
1:15am EST- There was a moving average crossover for a long trade. RSI was greater than 50 but stochastics were trending down and MACD was losing value. This cancelled out the signal so I didn’t enter.
6:30am 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 1.6624 with a stop at the most recent swing low at 1.6426. Since I was 26 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I decided to put my target at 1.6650.
Entry: Long at 1.6624
Stop: 1.6426
Initial Target: 1.6650
6:45am EST- My target was hit at 1.6650. Price did not make a clean break so I took my final profit. I exited at 1.6645.
