Today’s Surf
5:00am EDT– There was a moving average crossover for a long trade. RSI was greater than 50, stochastics were trending up, but MACD was already positive. This cancelled out the signal and I did not enter.
10:45am 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 1.4321 with a stop at the most recent low at 1.4229. Since I was 29 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I decided to put my target at 1.4350.
Entry: Long at 1.4321
Stop: 1.4229
Target: 1.4350
12:00pm EDT- Unfortunately I was stopped out of my trade.
