Today’s Surf
9:30am EDT– 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 1.4048 with a stop at the most recent high at 1.4131. Since I was 48 pips away from the nearest 50 or 00 level, I put my initial target at 1.4000.
Entry: Short at 1.4048
Stop: 1.4131
Target: 1.4000
11:00am EDT– My target was hit. Price didn’t make a clean break so I took my final profit. I exited at 1.4005.
Trade Result: +43 pips (NOT INCLUDING SPREAD) R-Multiple: 0.52
